Can two elements always belong to the same Laurent series field?
Let $\Omega$ be the completion of an algebraic closure of $\mathbb F_q\left(\left(\frac1T\right)\right)$ for the topology induced by the valuation $-\deg$ on $\mathbb F_q(T)$.
Let $x,y\in\overline{\...

Extensions of p-adic number fields
Let $p$ be a prime number and $\mathbb{Q}_p$ be the $p-$adic rational field. Let $E/\mathbb{Q}_p$ be a fixed finite extension. On this site, I define a finite extension $F/E$ to be "good" if ...

Can every finitely generated field extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ be embedded into a local field?
Let $K$ be a finitely generated field extension of $\mathbb{Q}$, and let $p$ be a prime number. Can $K$ must be embedded into a p-adic local field (i.e. a finite field extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$) ?

Can global fields be defined as certain topological fields like local fields?
It's known that local fields can be defined as a non-discrete, Hausdorff (equivalently non-indiscrete), locally compact, topological field, which is the same as non-trivial (i.e. neither discrete nor ...

Why is $\overline{\mathbb{F}_p}((t))$ transcendental over $\mathbb{F}_p((t))$?
Why is $\overline{\mathbb{F}_p}((t))$ transcendental over $\mathbb{F}_p((t))$ ?
I guess $\overline{\mathbb{F}_p}((t))$ is not unramified over $\mathbb{F}_p((t))$ because $\overline{\mathbb{F}_p}((t))$ ...

Complete fields with algebraically closed residue field
I am looking for a reference where the following result is proven:
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field. If $K$ is a complete and discretely valued field with residue field $k$. Then $K$ is one ...

Is every Polish ring topology on $\mathbb{C}$ defined by an absolute value?
There is a unique up to isomorphism algebraically closed field of characteristic 0 and cardinality of the continuum. Let's call it $K$.
We usually call it $\mathbb{C}$, but by this we impose a ...

Infinitesimally small elements in extensions of models of model-complete theories
Suppose that we have a first order language $\mathcal{L}$ that extends the language of rings. Let $T$ a be a topological $\mathcal{L}$-theory of fields in the sense of Pillay.. this means that not ...

Local inverse Galois problem
It's a basic fact that a finite Galois extension $L/K$ of a local nonarchimedean field $K$ has solvable (in fact supersolvable [edit: no!]) Galois group $G$. One sees this by using the ramification ...
