Places of algebraic function fields in arbitrary characteristic
We consider the Zariski space of all places of an algebraic function field F |K of arbitrary characteristic and investigate its structure by means of its patch topology. We show that certain sets of places with nice properties (e.g., prime divisors, places of maximal rank, zerodimensional discrete places) lie dense in this topology. Further, we give several equivalent characterizations of field...
متن کاملFq-rational places in algebraic function fields using Weierstrass semigroups
We present a new bound on the number of Fq-rational places in an algebraic function field. It uses information about the generators of theWeierstrass semigroup related to a rational place. As we demonstrate, the bound has implications to the theory of towers of function fields. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
متن کاملHilbert’s Tenth Problem for Algebraic Function Fields of Characteristic 2
Let K be an algebraic function field of characteristic 2 with constant field CK . Let C be the algebraic closure of a finite field in K. Assume that C has an extension of degree 2. Assume that there are elements u, x of K with u transcendental over CK and x algebraic over C(u) and such that K = CK(u, x). Then Hilbert’s Tenth Problem over K is undecidable. Together with Shlapentokh’s result for ...
متن کاملAlgebraic Groups over Arbitrary Fields
In this chapter, we study algebraic groups, especially nonsplit reductive groups, over arbitrary fields. The algebraic groups over a field k that become isomorphic to a fixed algebraic group over kal are classified by a certain cohomology group. In the first section, we explain this, and discuss what is known about the cohomology groups. Over an algebraically closed field, the classical semisim...
متن کاملHilbert’s Tenth Problem for Algebraic Function Fields over Infinite Fields of Constants of Positive Characteristic
Let K be an algebraic function field of characteristic p > 2. Let C be the algebraic closure of a finite field in K. Assume that C has an extension of degree p. Assume also that K contains a subfield K1, possibly equal to C, and elements u, x such that u is transcendental over K1, x is algebraic over C(u) and K = K1(u, x). Then the Diophantine problem of K is undecidable. Let G be an algebraic ...
