Summary In this article we further extend the algebraic theory of polynomial rings in Mizar [1, 2, 3]. We deal with roots and multiple roots of polynomials and show that both the real numbers and finite domains are not algebraically closed [5, 7]. We also prove the identity theorem for polynomials and that the number of multiple roots is bounded by the polynomial’s degree [4, 6].

AbstractWe use a new construction of an o-minimal structure, due to Lipshitz and Robinson, to answer a question of van den Dries regarding the relationship between arbitrary o-minimal expansions of real closed fields and structures over the real numbers. We write a first order sentence which is true in the Lipshitz-Robinson structure but fails in any possible interpretation over the field of real numbers.

Exploring further the connection between exponentiation on real closed fields and the existence of an integer part modelling strong fragments of arithmetic, we demonstrate that each model of true arithmetic is an integer part of an exponential real closed field that is elementarily equivalent to the real numbers with exponentiation and that each model of Peano arithmetic is an integer part of a real closed field that admits an isomorphism between its ordered additive and its ordered multiplicative group of positive elements. Under the assumption of Schanuel’s Conjecture, we obtain further strengthenings for the last statement.

AbstractWe show that for any real number, the class of real numbers less random than it, in the sense of rK-reducibility, forms a countable real closed subfield of the real ordered field. This generalizes the well-known fact that the computable reals form a real closed field.With the same technique we show that the class of differences of computably enumerable reals (d.c.e. reals) and the class of computably approximable reals (c.a. reals) form real closed fields. The d.c.e. result was also proved nearly simultaneously and independently by Ng (Keng Meng Ng, Master's Thesis, National University of Singapore, in preparation).Lastly, we show that the class of d.c.e. reals is properly contained in the class or reals less random than Ω (the halting probability), which in turn is properly contained in the class of c.a. reals, and that neither the first nor last class is a randomness class (as captured by rK-reducibility).

In this paper we wish to study fields which can be written as intersections of real closed fields. Several more restrictive classes of fields have received careful study (real closed fields by Artin and Schreier, hereditarily euclidean fields by Prestel and Ziegler [8], hereditarily Pythagorean fields by Becker [1]), with this more general class of fields sometimes mentioned in passing. We shall give several characterizations of this class in the next two sections. In § 2 we will be concerned with Gal , the Galois group of an algebraic closure F over F. We also relate the fields to the existence of multiplier sequences; these are infinite sequences of elements from the field which have nice properties with respect to certain sets of polynomials. For the real numbers, they are related to entire functions; generalizations can be found in [3].

AbstractA linearly ordered set A is said to shuffle into another linearly ordered set B if there is an order preserving surjection A —> B such that the preimage of each member of a cofinite subset of B has an arbitrary pre-defined finite cardinality. We show that every countable linearly ordered set shuffles into itself. This leads to consequences on transformations of subsets of the real numbers by order preserving maps.

AbstractThe classification of the nilpotent orbits in the Lie algebra of a reductive algebraic group (over an algebraically closed field) is given in all the cases where it was not previously known (E7 and E8 in bad characteristic, F4 in characteristic 3). The paper exploits the tight relation with the corresponding situation over a finite field. A computer is used to study this case for suitable choices of the finite field.
