Let K → L be an algebraic field extension and ν a valuation of K. The purpose of this paper is to describe the totality of extensions {ν′} of ν to L using a refined version of MacLane's key polynomials. In the basic case when L is a finite separable extension and rk ν = 1, we give an explicit description of the limit key polynomials (which can...

Let (R; m; k) be a local noetherian domain with field of fractions K and R_v a valuation ring, dominating R (not necessarily birationally). Let v|K be the restriction of v to K; by definition, v|K is centered at R. Let \hat{R} denote the m-adic completion of R. In the applications of valuation theory to commutative algebra and the study of...
