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 $\...

Let $K$ be a field. I think I know what a norm (archimedean or not) $|-| : K \to \mathbb R_{\geq 0}$ is. In the case where the norm is nonarchimedean, it's equivalent to the data of a valuation of ...

I just want to know what properties of valuations extend to $\mathbb R$... Denote an extension of the 2-adic valuation from $\mathbb Q$ to $\mathbb R$ by $\nu$. Suppose $\nu(x)=\nu(y)=0$. Is it true ...

Let $K$ be a field endowed with a rank (height) one valuation with completion $\hat{K}$, which is not discrete. Let $R$ be the valuation ring of $K$. Let $L \subset \hat{K}$ be a separable finite ...
