Approximating $p$-adic power series by polynomials

Let $p$ be a prime, and let $f \in \mathbb{Z}_p[[x_1,\dots,x_d]]$ be a power series convergent on all of $\mathbb{Z}_p^d$. We make the following definition concerning the approximation of $f$ by ...

Bezout-type theorem for $p$-adic analytic plane curves

Let $p$ be a prime, and let $f,g \in \mathbb{Z}_p[[x,y]]$ be power series convergent on all of $\mathbb{Z}_p$. Suppose that the intersection of the analytic plane curves cut out by $f$ and $g$ is ...

How to get a ball in the nonvanishing locus of a polynomial in $\mathbb Z_p[x_1,\cdots,x_n]$ canonically?

Suppose $f\in \mathbb Z_p[x_1,\cdots,x_n]$, and consider $D(f):=\{(𝑥_1,…,𝑥_𝑛)∈ℤ^𝑛_𝑝:𝑓(𝑥_1,…,𝑥_𝑛)≠0\}\subset \mathbb Z_p^n$. How to calculate a radius $r$ from the datum of $f$ such that $D(f)$...

Elementary aspects of The Fargues-Fontaine curve

To any pair $(E,F)$, where $E$ is a local field and $F$ is a perfectoid field, one can associate a curve $X^{\text{FF}}_{E,F}$, the so-called Fargues-Fontaine curve, which is unique up to Frobenius ...

Is equation $y^3+x y + x^4 + 4 = 0$ solvable locally (in ${\mathbb Q}_p$ for all $p$)?

When finding out whether an equation in 2 variables has rational solutions (or, equivalently, whether an algebraic curve has any rational points), many authors recommend checking the local solubility ...
