Hilbert`s Tenth Problem over rings of number
... If a first order formula is of the form (∃x1 )(∃x2 ) . . . (∃xn ) S where S is a combination of equations involving +, ·, 0, 1, =, ∧, ∨ and variables but no quantifiers and no ¬, then it is called a positive existential formula. If moreover S consists of a single equation (no logical operators), th ...

Model Theory of Valued fields
... Model-theoretically, there are various languages appropriate for valued fields. If (K, v, Γ) is a valued field, then the apparatus of definable sets can be expressed just using the ring language augmented by a predicate for the valuation ring R. For then, the group U (R) of units of R is definable, ...

6.6. Unique Factorization Domains
... Proof. Suppose that f (x) ∈ R[x] is primitive in R[x] and irreducible in F [x]. If f (x) = a(x)b(x) in R[x], then one of a(x) and b(x) must be a unit in F [x], so of degree 0. Suppose without loss of generality that a(x) = a0 ∈ R. Then a0 divides all coefficients of f (x), and, because f (x) is prim ...

Introductory notes on the model theory of valued fields
... This subsection and the next are fairly boring, and I would recommend that the reader at first only reads paragraphs 1.10 and 1.13 which give examples. Formulas are built using some basic logical symbols (given below) and in a fashion which ensures unique readibility. Satisfaction is defined in the ...

Since x ∈ B, x satisfies a polynomial equation xm + am−1 xm−1 + · · · + a1 x + a0 = 0 with the ai ∈ A. If we take the positive integer m as small as possible, then a0 = 0 ...
