Abstract:Let D be a division ring with centre Z and with involution ( * ). Let V be a valuation of D with value group , a linearly ordered additive group (non necessarily commutative) together with a symbol (positive infinity). We assume that for each nonzero symmetric element s = s * of D, which is algebraic over Z, we have for all nonzero elements x of D, V xa − ax > V ax . We define the residue characteristic exponent p of V to be the characteristic of the associated residue division ring written as D V , if = 0, an… Show more
