Valuation theory plays a major part in the interaction between number theory and logic. In this seminar, a variety of topics from valuation theory, and in particular connections to model theory, will be discussed. There will be a strong emphasis on results involving the definability of valuations.

The Étale Open Topology
For any field K, we introduce natural topologies on K-points of varieties over K, which is defined to be the weakest topology such that étale morphisms are open. This topology turns out to be natural in a lot of settings. For example, when K is algebraically closed, it is easy to see that we have the Zariski topology, and it picks up the valuation topology in many henselian valued fields. Moreover, many topological properties correspond to the algebraic properties of the field. As an application, we will show that large stable fields are separably closed. Joint work with Will Johnson, Chieu-Minh Tran, and Erik Walsberg
