Artin-Schreier extensions and combinatorial complexity in henselian valued fields

Blaise Boissonneau

Abstract

We give explicit formulas witnessing IP, \IPn or TP2 in fields with Artin-Schreier extensions. We use them to control $p$-extensions of mixed characteristic henselian valued fields, allowing us most notably to generalize to the \NIPn context one way of Anscombe-Jahnke's classification of NIP henselian valued fields. As a corollary, we obtain that \NIPn henselian valued fields with NIP residue field are NIP. We also discuss tameness results for NTP2 henselian valued fields.

Artin-Schreier extensions and combinatorial complexity in henselian valued fields

Abstract

We give explicit formulas witnessing IP, \IPn or TP2 in fields with Artin-Schreier extensions. We use them to control -extensions of mixed characteristic henselian valued fields, allowing us most notably to generalize to the \NIPn context one way of Anscombe-Jahnke's classification of NIP henselian valued fields. As a corollary, we obtain that \NIPn henselian valued fields with NIP residue field are NIP. We also discuss tameness results for NTP2 henselian valued fields.

Key Result

Theorem 1.1

Let $K$ be an infinite field of characteristic $p>0$. Then has IP$_{\!n}$ iff $K$ has an Artin-Schreier extension, and has TP2 iff it has infinitely many distinct Artin-Schreier extensions.

Figures (2)

  • Figure 1: A TP2 pattern
  • Figure 2: After finding $j_{2k-5},\!\cdots\!,j_{2k-1}$, we connect the $R_3(N)$ many points $j_{2k-5}-1,\!\cdots\!,j_{2k-5}-R_3(N)$ with edges colored as indicated; we seek either a monochromatic $N$-clique or two non-connected points that we then name $j_{2k-6}$ and $j_{2k-7}$.
