The common valuation conjecture for superrosy fields

At least 12 years old · documented by

Let KK be a field such that for every finite extension LL of KK and every natural number n>0n>0, the index [L∗:(L∗)n][L^*:(L^*)^n] is finite. If char⁡(K)=p>0\operatorname{char}(K)=p>0 and f ⁣:L→Lf\colon L\to L is given by f(x)=xp−xf(x)=x^p-x, also require that [L+:f[L]][L^+:f[L]] is finite. The common valuation conjecture. Either KK admits a non-trivial definable valuation, or every non-trivial valuation on KK has divisible value group and algebraically or real closed residue field. The source describes this as a common approximation to several preceding conjectures; it remains unresolved in the supplied text.
