Higher-rank Archimedean valuations of $\mathbb{Q}$, does it exist?
I was reading the proof of Ostrowski's theorem, with an eye toward the Zariski-Riemann space (as well as adic space, Berkovich space, etc.) In the proof, the value group is always assumed to be in $\...

Is there any relation between Berkovich spaces over $\Bbb Z$ and Arakelov theory?
As I understand it, both Arakelov geometry and Berkovich geometry over $\Bbb Z$ (or $\mathcal O_K$) consider geometric objects that contain in some sense information about both archimdean and ...

What information does the topology of nonarchimedean Berkovich analytic spaces encode?
Given a finite type scheme $X$ over $\Bbb{C}$ we can associate to it an analytic space $X^\text{an}$. There are then comparison theorems comparing invariants of the topological space $X^\text{an}$ ...

Contractibility of the quotient of an analytification of a smooth variety by a finite group (if the field is trivially valued)
Let $k$ be a field and $X$ be a smooth irreducible $k$-variety with an action of a finite group $G$. I consider $k$ as a trivially valued field.
It is known from results of Berkovich ("Smooth p-...
