From a model theoretic point of view, local fields of positive characteristic, i.e. fields of Laurent series over finite fields, are much less well understood than their characteristic zero counterparts - the fields of real, complex and p-adic numbers. I will discuss different approaches to axiomatize and decide at least their existential theory in various languages and under various forms of resolution of singularities. This includes new joint work with Sylvy Anscombe and Philip Dittmann.
