Abstract

In this paper, we reproduce the proof given in [1] of the equality be- tween ε(f) and δ(f), two important objects in Valuation Theory. This proof uses the notion of Newton polygons. We present some details that were omitted in [1] and illustrate a step-by-step construction of a Newton Polygon associated to a specific finite set.
