On differentially large fields.
ENS Salle WRecall that a field K is large if it is existentially closed in K((t)). Examples of such fields are the complex, the real, and the p-adic numbers. This class of fields has been exploited significantly by F. Pop and others in inverse Galois-theoretic problems. In recent work with M. Tressl we introduced and explored a differential analogue of largeness, that we conveniently call ``differentially large''. I will present some properties of such fields, and use a twisted version of the Taylor morphism to characterise them using formal Laurent series and […]
