Topology II: Model Theory of Valued Fields
MATH526 SP

This course will present results, originating with the Ax-Chochen and Ershov, on the model theory of valued fields, and will apply these results to resolve certain Diophantine problems over local fields. Necessary material from valuation theory will be developed as needed, but students should already have taken an introductory course on model theory. Homework will be assigned regularly.
