Invariants of limit key polynomials

Let $ν$ be a valuation of arbitrary rank on the polynomial ring $K[x]$ with coefficients in a field $K$. We prove comparison theorems between MacLane-Vaquié key polynomials for valuations $μ\leν$ and abstract key polynomials for $ν$. Also, some results on invariants attached to limit key polynomials are obtained. In particular, if $\operatorname{char}(K)=0$ we show that all limit key polynomials of unbounded continuous MacLane chains have numerical character equal to one.
