Valuation rings in simple algebraic extensions of valued fields (2503.09096v1)

Abstract: Consider a simple algebraic valued field extension $(L/K,v)$ and denote by $\mathcal O_L$ and $\mathcal O_K$ the corresponding valuation rings. The main goal of this paper is to present, under certain assumptions, a description of $\mathcal O_L$ in terms of generators and relations over $\mathcal O_K$. The main tool used here are complete sequences of key polynomials. It is known that if the ramification index of $(L/K,v)$ is one, then every complete set gives rise to a set of generators of $\mathcal O_L$ over $\mathcal O_K$. We show that we can find a sequence of key polynomials for $(L/K,v)$ which satisfies good properties (called neat). Then we present explicit ``neat" relations that generate all the relations between the corresponding generators of $\mathcal O_L$ over $\mathcal O_K$.
