Suppose that $K$ is a characteristic zero field with infinite transcendence degree over its prime subfield. We show that if there is a gt-henselian topology on $K$ then there are $2^{2^{|K|}}$ pairwise incomparable gt-henselian topologies…
We show that every definable nested family of closed and bounded subsets of a $P$-minimal field $K$ has non-empty intersection. As an application we answer a question of Darni\`ere and Halupczok showing that $P$-minimal fields satisfy the…
In these lecture notes we review the various relations between intersection theory on the moduli space of Riemann surfaces, integrable hierarchies of KdV type, matrix models, and topological quantum field theories. We explain in particular…
We prove that the theory of a Henselian valued field of characteristic zero, with finite ramification, and whose value group is a $Z$-group, is model-complete in the language of rings if the theory of its residue field is model-complete in…
We focus on working on incidence rings, a class of (possibly infinite) matrix rings indexed by ordered sets. Some general properties about them are given, including how they are always the inverse limit of finite matrix rings, giving a…
This paper is concerned with the shape invariants satisfied by the communication topology of {\pi}-terms, and the automatic inference of these invariants. A {\pi}-term P is hierarchical if there is a finite forest T such that the…
A visceral structure on M is given by a definable base for a uniform topology on its universe in which all basic open sets are infinite and any infinite definable subset X of M has non-empty interior. This context includes o-minimal ordered…
Let $K$ be a type-definable infinite field in an NIP theory. If $K$ has characteristic $p > 0$, then $K$ is Artin-Schreier closed (it has no Artin-Schreier extensions). As a consequence, $p$ does not divide the degree of any finite…
Through careful analysis of types inspired by [AGTW21] we characterize a notion of definable compactness for definable topologies in general o-minimal structures, generalizing results from [PP07] about closed and bounded definable sets in…
The disk complex of a surface in a 3-manifold is used to define its {\it topological index}. Surfaces with well-defined topological index are shown to generalize well-known classes, such as incompressible, strongly irreducible, and critical…
Numerical integration over the implicitly defined domains is challenging due to topological variances of implicit functions. In this paper, we use interval arithmetic to identify the boundary of the integration domain exactly, thus getting…
We introduce and study a notion of algebraic entropy for self-maps of finite length of Noetherian local rings, and develop its properties. We show that it shares the standard properties of topological entropy. For finite self-maps we…
We characterize some types of FIP and FCP ring extensions $R \subset S$, where $S$ is not an integral domain and $R$ may not be an integral domain. In this paper S is mostly a product of rings related to R and also the idealization of an…
In a previous paper, the third author proved that finite-degree polynomial functors over infinite fields are topologically Noetherian. In this paper, we prove that the same holds for polynomial functors from free $R$-modules to finitely…
We define a notion of tiling of the full infinite $p$-ary tree, establishing a series of equivalent criteria for a subtree to be a tile, each of a different nature; namely, geometric, algebraic, graph-theoretic, order-theoretic, and…
For any infinite field k and any positive integer r, we show constructively that the map sending each polynomial P $\in$ k[x] to its r-th iterate is dominant in various inductive limit topologies on the space of all polynomials.
We prove that an expansion of an algebraically closed field by $n$ arbitrary valuation rings is NTP${}_2$, and in fact has finite burden. It fails to be NIP, however, unless the valuation rings form a chain. Moreover, the incomplete theory…
Definable continuous injective maps defined on definable open sets into the Euclidean spaces of the same dimension are open maps in definably complete locally o-minimal expansions of ordered groups.
We study Lie rings definable in a finite-dimensional theory, extending the results for the finite Morley rank case. In particular, we prove a classification of Lie rings of dimension up to four in the NIP or connected case. In…
We continue investigating the structure of externally definable sets in NIP theories and preservation of NIP after expanding by new predicates. Most importantly: types over finite sets are uniformly definable; over a model, a family of…
