Extensions of valuations to rational function fields over completions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Given a valued field (K,v) and its completion (widehatK,v), we study the set of all possible extensions of v to widehatK(X). We show that any such extension is closely connected with the underlying subextension (K(X)|K,v). The connections between these extensions are studied via minimal pairs, key polynomials, pseudo-Cauchy sequences and implicit constant fields. As a consequence, we obtain strong ramification theoretic properties of (widehatK,v). We also give necessary and sufficient conditions for (K(X),v) to be dense in (widehatK(X),v).
