The absolute arithmetic continuum and the unification of all numbers great and small

P Ehrlich - Bulletin of Symbolic Logic, 2012 - cambridge.org
In his monograph On Numbers and Games, JH Conway introduced a real-closed field
containing the reals and the ordinals as well as a great many less familiar numbers …

Surreal ordered exponential fields

P Ehrlich, E Kaplan - The Journal of Symbolic Logic, 2021 - cambridge.org
In 2001, the algebraico-tree-theoretic simplicity hierarchical structure of JH Conway's
ordered field of surreal numbers was brought to the fore by the first author and employed to …

Conway names, the simplicity hierarchy and the surreal number tree

P Ehrlich - Journal of Logic and Analysis, 2011 - infinitesimals.com
Each surreal number has a unique Conway name (or normal form) that is characteristic of its
individual properties. The paper answers the following two questions that are naturally …

Primes and irreducibles in truncation integer parts of real closed fields

D Biljakovic, M Kochetov… - Logic, Algebra and …, 2006 - books.google.com
Berarducci (2000) studied irreducible elements of the ring k ((G< 0))⊕ Z, which is an integer
part of the power series field k ((G)) where G is an ordered divisible abelian group and k is …

Automorphism groups of Hahn groups and Hahn fields

M Serra - 2021 - kops.uni-konstanz.de
Let k be a field and G a totally ordered abelian group. Let K= k ((G)) be the field of
generalised power series with coefficients in k and exponents in G equipped with the …

Surreal substructures

V Bagayoko, J van Der Hoeven - arXiv preprint arXiv:2305.02001, 2023 - arxiv.org
Conway's field No of surreal numbers comes both with a natural total order and an
additional" simplicity relation" which is also a partial order. Considering No as a doubly …

Towers of complements to valuation rings and truncation closed embeddings of valued fields

A Fornasiero, FV Kuhlmann, S Kuhlmann - Journal of Algebra, 2010 - Elsevier
We study necessary and sufficient conditions for a valued field K with value group G and
residue field k (with char K= chark) to admit a truncation closed embedding in the field of …

Complexity of structures associated with real closed fields

JF Knight, K Lange - Proceedings of the London Mathematical …, 2013 - Wiley Online Library
Real closed fields, and structures associated with them, are interesting from the point of view
of both model theory and computability. In this paper, we give results on the complexity of …

[PDF][PDF] Truncation in Hahn fields

L van den Dries - Valuation Theory in Interaction, 2014 - Citeseer
Let k be a field and Γ an (additive) ordered1 abelian group. Then we have the Hahn field K:=
k ((tΓ)) whose elements are the formal series a=∑ γ aγtγ with coefficients aγ∈ k and …

Valuation bases for generalized algebraic series fields

FV Kuhlmann, S Kuhlmann, JW Lee - Journal of Algebra, 2009 - Elsevier
We investigate valued fields which admit a valuation basis. Given a countable ordered
abelian group G and a real closed or algebraically closed field F with subfield K, we give a …
