When does sum of algebraically independent polynomial become dependent?

Given $f_1,...,f_n \in \mathbb{F}[x_1,...,x_n]$ where $f_n = g + h$. Suppose the sets $\{ f_1,...,f_{n-1},g \}$ and $\{ f_1,...,f_{n-1},h \}$ are algebraically independent then is there a ...

A question on algebraic independence

Let $f_1,f_2,\ldots,f_n, g \in \mathbb{F}_q[x_1,...,x_m]$. Assume that $f_1,\ldots,f_n$ vanish at $0$, so that $\mathbb{F}_q[[f_1,...,f_n]]$ is a subring of $\mathbb{F}_q[[x_1,...,x_n]]$. Suppose that ...

Good and bad reduction for twists of algebraic curves

Suppose we have two curves $C/\mathbb{Q}$ and $C'/\mathbb{Q}$ which are twists of each other i.e. they are isomorphic over a field extension $K/\mathbb{Q}$. Suppose that $C$ has good reduction at a ...

What is known about the prime-to-$p$ etale fundamental group of $\mathbb{P}^1_{\mathbb{F}_p}$ minus $\mathbb{F}_p$-rational points?

Is it known to be (the prime-to-$p$ part of the profinite completion of) a finitely presentable group? Is such a presentation known? Is there a guess for what it is? What is known about it?
