On a proposed axiomatisation of the maximal abelian extension of the p-adic numbers

The local Kronecker-Weber theorem states that the maximal abelian extension of p-adic numbers Q_p is obtained from this field by adjoining all roots of unity. In 2018, Koenigsmann conjectured that the maximal abelian extension of Q_p is decidable. In my talk, we will discuss Koenigsmann's proposed axiomatisation. In contrast, the maximal unramified extension of Q_p is known to be decidable, admitting a complete axiomatisation by an informed but simple set of axioms (this is due to Kochen). We explain how the question of completeness can be reduced to an Ax-Kochen-Ershov result in residue characteristic 0 by the method of coarsening.
