Apr 8 at 0:26 comment added Kevin Casto @DenisT I guess I was referring to $\mathbb C$-algebra homomorphisms (taking 1 to 1), which are thus the identity on $\mathbb C \cdot 1$ and so can't embed the domain's copy of $\mathbb C$ in a strict subfield of the codomain's copy of $\mathbb C$.
Apr 7 at 23:44 comment added Denis T @KevinCasto Of course, just embed formal series into the algebraic closure of the fraction field. It is abstractly isomorphic to complex numbers by categoricity of theory of alg. closed fields.
Apr 7 at 23:36 comment added kindasorta Sure, I'd settle for that.
Apr 7 at 23:34 comment added Kevin Casto Or for that matter (or an easy argument that there's not) from $\mathbb C[[x,y]]$ to $\mathbb C[[x]]$?
Apr 7 at 23:07 comment added user525759 Is there such a homomorphism from $\mathbb{Z}[[x,y]]$ to $\mathbb{Z}[[x]]$?
Apr 7 at 23:01 comment added kindasorta But then wouldn't $(y-x)\mapsto 0$ imply your map isn't injective?
Apr 7 at 22:57 comment added kindasorta Yes, I would like it to be continuous, but would also be curious if there is an obvious incontinuous one.
Apr 7 at 22:52 comment added LSpice Do you want the homomorphism to be continuous? (I'm not sure if that's automatic.)
