Nov 15, 2012 at 22:55 comment added ACL To Hugo: You probably want that $L^{Aut_k(L)}=k$. But such an $L$ only exists if the field extension $K/k$ is separable.

Jan 28, 2011 at 0:46 comment added Hugo Chapdelaine Yes you are right, I use the fact that the fixed field of $Aut(C)$ is $Q$. The fact that $Aut(R)={Id}$ is not a problem since you may work in a suitable algebraic closure and as you know $C$ is an algebraic closure of $R$. I guess that in general if you have a field $k\subseteq K$ then you want to show the existence of a field $L$ which contains $K$ such that $Aut_k(L)=k$. Once you have that the proof works.
Jan 27, 2011 at 22:06 comment added Auguste Hoang Duc There is something which bothers me. You use the fact that the subfield of $\C$ fixed by $Aut(\C)$ is $\Q$. Why is it true ? For exemple it is false if you replace $\C$ by $\R$.
Jan 23, 2011 at 14:54 comment added Hugo Chapdelaine Yes, I did not check it but the proof might carry over to power series ring in many variables.

Jan 23, 2011 at 12:35 comment added GH from MO Yes, and this works in Gjergji's more general setting, too. I would emphasize that $K[[x]]$ is a UFD, it is implicitly used in your proof.
