For a point T and a circle δ, if two congruent circles of radius r touching at T also touch δ at points different from T , we say T generates circles of radius r with δ, and the two circles are said to be generated by T with δ. If the generated circles are Archimedean, we say T generates Archimedean circles with δ. Frank Power seems to be the earliest discoverer of this kind Archimedean circles...

For a Köthe sequence space, the classes of Λ0-nuclear spaces and spaces with the Λ0-property are introduced and studied and the relation between them is investigated. Also, we show that, for Λ0 6= c0, these classes of spaces are in general different from the corresponding ones for Λ0 = c0, which have been extensively studied in the non-archimedean literature (see, for example, [1]–[6]).

The paper develops techniques in order to construct computer programs, pseudorandom number generators (PRNG), that produce uniformly distributed sequences. The paper exploits an approach that treats standard processor instructions (arithmetic and bitwise logical ones) as continuous functions on the space of 2-adic integers. Within this approach, a PRNG is considered as a dynamical system and is...

For arbitrary real closed fields R, we study the structure of the space M(R(y)) of R-places of the rational function field in one variable over R and determine its dimension to be 1. We determine small subbases for their topology and discuss a suitable metric in the metrizable case. In the case of non-archimedean R, we exhibit the rich variety of homeomorphisms of subspaces that can be found in...

We study the S-integral points on the complement of a union of hyperplanes in projective space, where S is a finite set of places of a number field k. In the classical case where S consists of the set of archimedean places of k, we completely characterize, in terms of the hyperplanes and the field k, when the (S-)integral points are not Zariski-dense.

A non-Archimedean antiderivational line analog of the Cauchy-type line integration is defined and investigated over local fields. Classes of non-Archimedean holomorphic functions are defined and studied. Residues of functions are studied; Laurent series representations are described. Moreover, non-Archimedean antiderivational analogs of integral representations of functions and differential for...

The theme of doing quantum mechanics on all abelian groups goes back to Schwinger and Weyl. If the group is a vector space of finite dimension over a non-archimedean locally compact division ring, it is of interest to examine the structure of dynamical systems defined by Hamiltonians analogous to those encountered over the field of real numbers. In this letter a path integral formula for the im...

We explore the distinction between convergence and absolute convergence of series in both Archimedean and non-Archimedean ordered fields and find that the relationship between them is closely connected to sequential (Cauchy) completeness.

We prove several multiplicity one theorems in this paper. For k a local field not of characteristic two, and V a symplectic space over k, any irreducible admissible representation of the symplectic similitude group GSp(V ) decomposes with multiplicity one when restricted to the symplectic group Sp(V ). We prove the analogous result for GO(V ) and O(V ), where V is an orthogonal space over k. Wh...
