| Title: |
Asymptotic valued differential fields and differential-henselianity
|
| Abstract: |
It is well known that henselianity plays a fundamental role in the algebra and model theory of valued fields. The notion of differential-henselianity, introduced by Scanlon and developed in further generality by Aschenbrenner, van den Dries, and van der Hoeven, is a natural generalization to the setting of valued differential fields. I will present three related theorems justifying the position that differential-henselianity plays a similarly fundamental role in the algebra of asymptotic valued differential fields, a class arising naturally from the study of Hardy fields and transseries, and that have potential applications to the model theory of such fields. |
