Thus, it suffices to verify that there are two 2-element sets {e, f } ⊆ A0 and {e0 , f 0 } ⊆ A2 which can be connected by a sequence of blocks ...

... v(0) = ∞. Then v is a discrete valuation on F . Given the parallels between them, it should come as no surprise that a valuation gives rise to an absolute value on F by defining |x| = c−v(x) for any c > 1; the induced topology on F is independent of the choice of c. By condition (iii), the absolute ...
