May 25, 2018 at 20:15 comment added Felipe Voloch @DimaKoshelev The extensions that you will get if you bother to do the calculations for $p \equiv 3 \pmod{4}, p \equiv 2 \pmod{3}$ are like that. So maybe you should try to do them yourself, because I am not going to do it for you.
May 25, 2018 at 19:26 comment added Dimitri Koshelev This is obvious. Could you clarify please, what do you mean?
May 25, 2018 at 16:24 comment added Felipe Voloch @DimaKoshelev I am not sure what kind of general statement you need but if $y=x^m, (m,p)=1$, then $y^{1/p} = x^{m/p}$.
May 25, 2018 at 14:21 comment added Dimitri Koshelev Is the extension $\mathbb{F}_{p^2}(\mathbb{A}^2) \supset \mathbb{F}_{p^2}(K)$ normal? Why does the lift of the Galois action on $X$ to $\mathbb{A}^2$ exist?
May 24, 2018 at 6:59 comment added Felipe Voloch @DimaKoshelev Yes, a priori, only over the algebraic closure. I believe the cases of $p \equiv 2 \pmod{3}, p \equiv 3 \pmod{4}$ already mentioned will be quite explicit and can be checked directly. Shioda's paper Math. Ann. 211 (1974), 233–236, does the Fermat surface of degree $p+1$ explicitly and shows it's a Zariski surface over $\mathbb{F}_{p^2}$.
May 24, 2018 at 6:16 comment added Dimitri Koshelev However this quotient is a priori rational only over the algebraic closure. Am I right?
May 23, 2018 at 20:45 comment added Noam D. Elkies Likewise for $p \equiv 3 \bmod 4$ by sending $y^2 = x^{p+1} - 1$ to $y^2 = X^4 - 1$ where $X = x^{(p+1)/4}$.
May 23, 2018 at 19:53 comment added Felipe Voloch @DimaKoshelev I missed the fact you wanted purely inseparable. But if $\mathbb{A}^2 \to X \to K$ and $X \to K$ is Galois, you can try to lift the Galois action to $\mathbb{A}^2$ and take the quotient, which will also be a rational surface.
May 23, 2018 at 19:26 comment added Dimitri Koshelev How can we explicitly find a purely inseparable part $S \to K$ of the map $\mathbb{A}^2 \to K$, where $S$ is some "intermediate" surface?
