The module of Kähler differentials for extensions of valuation rings (2307.02315v1)
Published 5 Jul 2023 in math.AC
Abstract: The main goal of this paper is to characterize the module of K\"ahler differentials for an extension of valuation rings. More precisely, we consider a simple algebraic valued field extension $(L/K,v)$ and the corresponding valuation rings $\VR_L$ and $\VR_K$. In the case when $e(L/K,v)=1$ we present a characterization for $\Omega_{\VR_L/\VR_K}$ in terms of a given sequence of key polynomials for the extension. Moreover, we use our main result to present a characterization for when $\Omega_{\VR_L/\VR_K}={0}$.
