Let $K$ be a local field of characteristic $p$ and let $L/K$ be a totally ramified elementary abelian $p$-extension with a single ramification break $b$. Byott and Elder defined the refined ramification breaks of $L/K$, an extension of the…
Let p be an odd prime, and k_\infty the cyclotomic Z_p-extension of an abelian field k. For a finite set S of rational primes which does not include p, we will consider the maximal S-ramified abelian pro-p extension M_S(k_\infty) over…
This is a letter (not intended for publication in a regular journal) written in response to two referees of my preprint "Local duality theorems for commutative algebraic groups". In it, I discuss possible applications of the new theory of…
The R-matrix formalism for the construction of integrable systems with infinitely many degrees of freedom is reviewed. Its application to Poisson, noncommutative and loop algebras as well as central extension procedure are presented. The…
We study infinite groups interpretable in three families of valued fields: $V$-minimal, power bounded $T$-convex, and $p$-adically closed fields. We show that every such group $G$ has unbounded exponent and that if $G$ is dp-minimal then it…
Let (R; m; k) be a local noetherian domain with field of fractions K and R_v a valuation ring, dominating R (not necessarily birationally). Let v|K be the restriction of v to K; by definition, v|K is centered at R. Let \hat{R} denote the…
Let $k$ be a finite field. Wintenberger used the field of norms to give an equivalence between a category whose objects are totally ramified abelian $p$-adic Lie extensions $E/F$, where $F$ is a local field with residue field $k$, and a…
We present an axiomatic approach to finite- and infinite-dimensional differential calculus over arbitrary infinite fields (and, more generally, suitable rings). The corresponding basic theory of manifolds and Lie groups is developed.…
Certain topologies on Milnor K-groups of higher local fields K are studied. These are related to the topology on the multiplicative group and important for explicit higher local class field theory. The structure of the quotient of Milnor…
Neukirch has developed explicit and axiomatic class field theory, which applies to both local and global fields. One of the key ingredients in his theory is a $\hat{\mathbb{Z}}$-extension of the base field, and in the case of…
Suppose $K$ is a finite field extension of $\mathbb{Q} _p$ containing a primitive $p$-th root of unity. Let $\Gamma _{<p}$ be the Galois group of a maximal $p$-extension of $K$ with the Galois group of period $p$ and nilpotent class $<p$.…
We study a class of tame $\mathcal{L}$-theories $T$ of topological fields and their $\mathcal{L}_\delta$-extension $T_{\delta}^*$ by a generic derivation $\delta$. The topological fields under consideration include henselian valued fields…
In this paper, we construct a class of $2$-dimensional formal groups over $\mathbb{Z}_p$ that provide a higher-dimensional analogue of the usual $1$-dimensional Lubin-Tate formal groups, then we initiate the study of the extensions…
We study irreducible mod p representations, valued in general reductive groups, of the Galois group of a number field. When the number field is totally real, we show that odd representations satisfying local ramification hypotheses and a…
A henselian valued field $K$ is called a tame field if its algebraic closure $\tilde{K}$ is a tame extension, that is, the ramification field of the normal extension $\tilde{K}|K$ is algebraically closed. Every algebraically maximal…
In this paper we discuss stable forms of extensions of algebraic local rings along a valuation in all dimensions over a field k of characteristic zero, and generalize a formula of Ghezzi, H\`a and Kashcheyeva describing the extension of…
We give a brief re-exposition of the theory due to Pauli and Sinclair of ramification polygons of Eisenstein polynomials over p-adic fields, their associated residual polynomials and an algorithm to produce all extensions for a given…
Refining a constructive combinatorial method due to MacLane and Schilling, we give several criteria for a valued field that guarantee that all of its maximal immediate extensions have infinite transcendence degree. If the value group of the…
Given a hilbertian field $k$ of characteristic zero and a finite Galois extension $E/k(T)$ with group $G$ such that $E/k$ is regular, we produce some specializations of $E/k(T)$ at points $t_0 \in \mathbb{P}^1(k)$ which have the same Galois…
For important cases of algebraic extensions of valued fields, we develop presentations of the associated K\"ahler differentials of the extensions of their valuation rings. We compute their annihilators as well as the associated Dedekind…
