Let $(K,\nu)$ be an arbitrary valued field with valuation ring $R_{\nu}$ and $L=K(\alpha)$, where $\alpha$ is a root of a monic irreducible polynomial $f\in R_{\nu}[x]$. In this paper, we characterize the integral closedness of…

Suppose that f is a dominant morphism from a k-variety X to a k-variety Y, where k is a field of characteristic 0 and v is a valuation of the function field k(X). We allow v to be an arbitary valuation, so it may not be discrete. We prove…

Let $V$ be a valuation domain of rank one and quotient field $K$. Let $\overline{\hat{K}}$ be a fixed algebraic closure of the $v$-adic completion $\hat K$ of $K$ and let $\overline{\hat{V}}$ be the integral closure of $\hat V$ in…

We introduce a real-parameter refinement of the classical integer hierarchies underlying Schmidt number, block-positivity, and $k$-positivity for maps between matrix algebras. Starting from a compact family of $\alpha$-admissible unit…

Let $K$ be an algebraically closed and complete nonarchimedean field with characteristic $0$ and let $f\in K[z]$ be a polynomial of degree $d\ge 2$. We study the Lyapunov exponent $L(f,\mu)$ of $f$ with respect to an $f$-invariant and…

We give conclusive answers to some questions about definability in analytic languages that arose shortly after the work by Denef and van den Dries, [DD], on $p$-adic subanalytic sets, and we continue the study of non-archimedean fields with…

Given a generically finite local extension of valuation rings $V \subset W$, the question of whether $W$ is the localization of a finitely generated $V$-algebra is significant for approaches to the problem of local uniformization of…

Let $G$ be a finite group and $K$ a number field. We construct a $G$-extension $E/F$, with $F$ of transcendence degree $2$ over $K$, that specializes to all $G$-extensions of $K_\mathfrak{p}$, where $\mathfrak{p}$ runs over all but finitely…

We deduce a formula enumerating the isomorphism classes of extensions of a $\kp$-adic field $K$ with given ramification $e$ and inertia $f$. The formula follows from a simple group-theoretic lemma, plus the Krasner formula and an elementary…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a polynomially bounded o-minimal expansion of a real closed field (in a language of arbitrary cardinality) to be $\aleph_{\alpha}$-saturated. The conditions are in terms of the value group,…

Let $v$ be a discrete valuation of a field $K$, which indicates that the valuation group of $v$ is isomorphic to the integers $\mathbb{Z}$ with the natural order, and let $L$ be a finite separable extension of $K$ with a complete set…

Let $K$ be the function field of a smooth, irreducible curve defined over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$. Let $f\in K[x]$ be of the form $f(x)=x^q+c$ where $q = p^{r}, r \ge 1,$ is a power of the prime number $p$, and let $\beta\in \overline{K}$.…

Let $K$ be a $p$-adic field, and let $K_\infty/K$ be a Galois extension that is almost totally ramified, and whose Galois group is a $p$-adic Lie group of dimension $1$. We prove that $K_\infty$ is not dense in $(\mathbf{B}_{\mathrm{dR}}^+…

Let $F$ be a global function field of characteristic $p>0$, $K/F$ an $\ell$-adic Lie extension ($\ell\neq p$) and $A/F$ an abelian variety. We provide Euler characteristic formulas for the $Gal(K/F)$-module $Sel_A(K)_\ell$.

Cyclic, ramified extensions $L/K$ of degree $p$ of local fields with residue characteristic $p$ are fairly well understood. Unless $\mbox{char}(K)=0$ and $L=K(\sqrt[p]{\pi_K})$ for some prime element $\pi_K\in K$, they are defined by an…

Let $K$ be a finite extension of the field $\mathbb{Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers, and $\phi\in K(z)$ be a rational map of degree at least $2$. We prove that the $K$-Julia set of $\phi$ is the natural restriction of $\mathbb{C}_p$-Julia set,…

For a finite valued field extension $(L/K,v)$ we describe the problem of find sets of generators for the corresponding extension $\mathcal O_L/\mathcal O_K$ of valuation rings. The main tool to obtain such sets are complete sets of (key)…

Let $K/\mathbb{Q}$ be a finitely generated field of characteristic zero and $X/K$ a smooth projective variety. Fix $q\in\mathbb{N}$. For every prime number $\ell$ let $\rho_\ell$ be the representation of $\mathrm{Gal}(K)$ on the \'etale…

Let P be a non-linear polynomial, K_P the filled Julia set of P, f a renormalization of P and K_f the filled Julia set of f. We show, loosely speaking, that there is a finite-to-one function \lambda from the set of P-external rays having…

This paper shows that for K a local field, k a subfield of K and X a variety over k, X is complete if and only if for every finite field extension K' of K, X(K') is compact in its strong topology.
