Let $K$ be a local field with finite residue field, we define a normal form for Eisenstein polynomials depending on the choice of a uniformizer $\pi_K$ and of residue representatives. The isomorphism classes of extensions generated by the…

The classical Witt vectors are a ubiquitous object in algebra and number theory. They arise as a functorial construction that takes perfect fields k of prime characteristic p > 0 to p-adically complete discrete valuation rings of…

Let $q$ be a power of a prime number $p$, $k=\mathbb{F}_{q}(t)$ be the rational function field over finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q}$ and $K/k$ be a multi-cyclic extension of prime degree. In this paper we will give an exact formula for the…

An equivalence is established between the category of at most $a$-ramified finite separable extensions of a complete discrete valuation field $K$ and the category of at most $a$-ramified finite extensions of the "length-$a$ truncation"…

For every commutative ring $A$, one has a functorial commutative ring $W(A)$ of $p$-typical Witt vectors of $A$, an iterated extension of $A$ by itself. If $A$ is not commutative, it has been known since the pioneering work of L. Hesselholt…

This article describes cubic function fields $L/K$ with prescribed ramification, where $K$ is a rational function field. We give general equations for such extensions, an explicit procedure to obtain a defining equation when the purely…

Given a $(0,p)$-mixed characteristic complete discrete valued field $\mathcal{K}$ we define a class of finite field extensions called \emph{pseudo-perfect} extensions such that the natural restriction map on the mod-$p$ Milnor $K$-groups is…

Let S/R be a finite extension of discrete valuation rings of characteristic p>0, and suppose that the corresponding extension L/K of fields of fractions is separable and is H-Galois for some K-Hopf algebra H. Let D_{S/R} be the different of…

Let $k$ be a number field and $V(k)$ an $n$-dimensional projective variety over $k$. We use the $K$-theory of a $C^*$-algebra $A_V$ associated to $V(k)$ to define a height of points of $V(k)$. The corresponding counting function is…

- Let p be a prime number and K an algebraic number field. What is the arithmetic structure of Galois extensions L/K having p-adic analytic Galois group $\Gamma$ = Gal(L/K)? The celebrated Tame Fontaine-Mazur conjecture predicts that such…

An extension $K/k$ of analytic (i.e. real valued complete) fields is called small if it is topologically-algebraically generated by finitely many elements. We prove that this property is inherited by subextensions and hence topological…

Let $K$ be a complete discretely valued field. An extension $L/K$ is "weakly totally ramified" if the residue extension is purely inseparable. We sharpen a result of Ax by showing that any Galois-invariant disk in the algebraic closure of…
