Ordered Rings and Fields

We introduce ordered rings and fields following Artin-Schreier’s approach using positive cones. We show that such orderings coincide with total order relations and give examples of ordered (and non ordered) rings and fields. In particular we show that polynomial rings can be ordered in (at least) two different ways [8, 5, 4, 9]. This is the continuation of the development of algebraic hierarchy in Mizar [2, 3].Schwarzweller Christoph - Institute of Informatics, University of Gdansk, Gdansk, PolandGrzegorz Bancerek.

The equidistribution of lattice shapes of rings of integers in cubic, quartic, and quintic number fields

For $n=3$, 4, and 5, we prove that, when $S_n$-number fields of degree $n$ are ordered by their absolute discriminants, the lattice shapes of the rings of integers in these fields become equidistributed in the space of lattices.Comment: 12 page

Definable valuations on ordered fields

We study the definability of convex valuations on ordered fields, with a particular focus on the distinguished subclass of henselian valuations. In the setting of ordered fields, one can consider definability both in the language of rings $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{r}}$ and in the richer language of ordered rings $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{or}}$. We analyse and compare definability in both languages and show the following contrary results: while there are convex valuations that are definable in the language $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{or}}$ but not in the language $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{r}}$, any $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{or}}$-definable henselian valuation is already $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{r}}$-definable. To prove the latter, we show that the value group and the ordered residue field of an ordered henselian valued field are stably embedded (as an ordered abelian group, respectively as an ordered field). Moreover, we show that in almost real closed fields any $\mathcal{L}_{\mathrm{or}}$-definable valuation is henselian.Comment: 17 page
