We draw concrete consequences from our arithmetic duality for two-dimensional local rings with perfect residue field. These consequences include class field theory, Hasse principles for coverings and $K_{2}$ and a duality between divisor…

This is an introduction to the author theory of cyclic p-extensions of an absolutely unramified complete discrete valuation field K with arbitrary residue field of characteristic p. In this theory a homomorphism is constructed from the…

We study the ramification groups of finite Galois extensions $L/K$ of a complete discrete valuation field $K$ of equal characteristic $p>0$ with perfect residue field and Galois group isomorphic to the group of unitriangular matrices…

Let $K$ be a number field or a function field of characteristic 0. If $K$ is a number field, assume the $abc$-conjecture for $K$. We prove a variant of Zsigmondy's theorem for ramified primes in preimage fields of rational functions in…

We compute the ramification filtration on wildly ramified $p^2$-cyclic extensions of local fields of characteristic $p$. The ramification filtration on the compositum of two $p$-cyclic and $p^2$-cyclic extensions are also computed. As an…

For any two complete discrete valued fields $K_1$ and $K_2$ of mixed characteristic with perfect residue fields, we show that if the $n$-th valued hyperfields of $K_1$ and $K_2$ are isomorphic over $p$ for each $n\ge1$, then $K_1$ and $K_2$…

T. Saito established a ramification theory for ring extensions locally of complete intersection. We show that for a Henselian valuation ring $A$ with field of fractions $K$ and for a finite Galois extension $L$ of $K$, the integral closure…

For a simple, normal and finite extension of a valued field, we prove that we can related the order of the ramification group of the field extension and the set of key polynomials associated to the extension of the valuation. More…

We define generalizations of classical invariants of wild ramification for coverings on a variety of arbitrary dimension over a local field. For an l-adic sheaf, we define its Swan class as a 0-cycle class supported on the wild ramification…

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…

Formal orbifolds are defined in higher dimension. Their \'etale fundamental groups are also defined. It is shown that the fundamental groups of formal orbifolds have certain finiteness property and it is also shown that they can be used to…

We consider p-extensions of number fields such that the filtration of the Galois group by higher ramification groups is of prescribed finite length. We extend well-known properties of tame extensions to this more general setting; for…

Let $p$ be a prime and let $K$ be a finite extension of the field ${\bf Q}_p$ of $p$-adic numbers such that the group ${}_pK^\times$ has order $p$. The ${\bf F}_p$-space $K^\times\!/K^{\times p}$ carries a natural filtration coming from the…

We give a characterization of finitely ramified $\omega$-pseudo complete valued fields of mixed characteristic $(0, p)$, with fixed residue field $k$ and value group $G$ of cardinality $\aleph_{1}$, in terms of a Hahn-like construction over…

We prove that a valued field of positive characteristic $p$ that has only finitely many distinct Artin-Schreier extensions (which is a property of infinite NTP$_2$ fields) is dense in its perfect hull. As a consequence, it is a deeply…

For a Henselian discrete valued field $K$ of characteristic $p>0$, Kato defined a ramification filtration $\{{\rm fil}_nH^q(K,\mathbb Q_p/\mathbb Z_p(q-1))\}_{n \ge 0}$ on $H^q(K,\mathbb Q_p/\mathbb Z_p(q-1))$. One can also define a…

We conjecture that a $p$-algebra over a complete discrete valued field $K$ contains a totally ramified purely inseparable subfield if and only if it contains a totally ramified cyclic maximal subfield. We prove the conjecture in several…

Let $L/K$ be an extension of complete discrete valuation fields, and assume that the residue field of $K$ is perfect and of positive characteristic. The residue field of $L$ is not assumed to be perfect. In this paper, we prove a formula…

Let k be a field of characteristic zero, let X be a geometrically integral k-variety of dimension n and let K be its field of fractions. Under the assumption that K contains all r-th roots of unity for an integer r, we prove that, given an…

Let $k$ be a rational congruence function field and consider an arbitrary finite separable extension $K/k$. If for each prime in $k$ ramified in $K$ we have that at least one ramification index is not divided by the characteristic of $K$,…
