Pseudo algebraically closed, pseudo real closed, and pseudo $p$-adically closed fields are examples of unstable fields that share many similarities, but have mostly been studied separately. In this text, we propose a unified framework for…

We consider existentially closed fields with several orderings, valuations, and $p$-valuations. We show that these structures are NTP$_2$ of finite burden, but usually have the independence property. Moreover, forking agrees with dividing,…

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…

The main result of this paper is that if M is a bounded PRC field then Th(M) eliminates imaginaries in the language of rings expanded by constant symbols.

NTP2 is a large class of first-order theories defined by Shelah and generalizing simple and NIP theories. Algebraic examples of NTP2 structures are given by ultra-products of p-adics and certain valued difference fields (such as a…

We initiate a systematic study of the class of theories without the tree property of the second kind - NTP2. Most importantly, we show: the burden is "sub-multiplicative" in arbitrary theories (in particular, if a theory has TP2 then there…

In this paper we develop three different subjects. We study and prove alternative versions of Hrushovski's "Stabilizer Theorem", we generalize part of the basic theory of definably amenable NIP groups to NTP2 theories, and finally, we use…

A field $K$ in a ring language $\mathcal{L}$ is finitely undecidable if $\mbox{Cons}(\Sigma)$ is undecidable for every nonempty finite $\Sigma \subseteq \mbox{Th}(K; \mathcal{L})$. We adapt arguments originating with Cherlin-van den…

The $p$-adic Littlewood Conjecture due to De Mathan and Teuli\'e asserts that for any prime number $p$ and any real number $\alpha$, the equation $$\inf_{|m|\ge 1} |m|\cdot |m|_p\cdot |\langle m\alpha \rangle|\, =\, 0 $$ holds. Here, $|m|$…

We prove that in theories without the tree property of the second kind (which include dependent and simple theories) forking and dividing over models are the same, and in fact over any extension base. As an application we show that…

The $N=2$ minimal superconformal model can be twisted yielding an example of topological conformal field theory. In this article we investigate a Lie theoretic extension of this process.

The following conjecture is due to Shelah-Hasson: Any infinite strongly NIP field is either real closed, algebraically closed, or admits a non-trivial definable henselian valuation, in the language of rings. We specialise this conjecture to…

Motivated by the Ax-Kochen/Ershov principle, a large number of questions about henselian valued fields have been shown to reduce to analogous questions about the value group and residue field. In this paper, we investigate the burden of…

It is shown that if $p$ is a complete type of Lascar rank at least 2 over $A$, in the theory of differentially closed fields of characteristic zero, then there exists a pair of realisations, $a_1$ and $a_2$, such that $p$ has a nonalgebraic…

In 1927, Artin and Schreier showed that a field is real closed if and only if its absolute Galois group has order two. Inspired by this characterisation and drawing on earlier work of Neukirch, Pop conjectured the following $p$-adic…

We initiate the study of definable V-topolgies and show that there is at most one such V-topology on a t-henselian NIP field. Equivalently, we show that if $(K,v_1,v_2)$ is a bi-valued NIP field with $v_1$ henselian (resp. t-henselian) then…

In previous work, the author and Chan computed the algebraic $K$-theory of the constant $C_2$-Tambara field with value the field with two elements, using a method which fails at odd primes. Herein we make progress towards the corresponding…

We prove in particular that, in a large class of dp-minimal theories including the p-adics, definable types are dense amongst non-forking types.

We establish several results regarding dividing and forking in NTP2 theories. We show that dividing is the same as array-dividing. Combining it with existence of strictly invariant sequences we deduce that forking satisfies the chain…

First, an example of a 2-dependent group without a minimal subgroup of bounded index is given. Second, all infinite n-dependent fields are shown to be Artin-Schreier closed. Furthermore, the theory of any non separably closed PAC field has…
