Perfect field

In algebra, a field k is perfect if any one of the following equivalent conditions holds: * Every irreducible polynomial over k has distinct roots. * Every irreducible polynomial over k is separable. * Every finite extension of k is separable. * Every algebraic extension of k is separable. * Either k has characteristic 0, or, when k has characteristic p > 0, every element of k is a pth power. * Either k has characteristic 0, or, when k has characteristic p > 0, the Frobenius endomorphism x ↦ xp is an automorphism of k. * The separable closure of k is algebraically closed. * Every reduced commutative k-algebra A is a separable algebra; i.e., is reduced for every field extension F/k. (see below) Otherwise, k is called imperfect. In particular, all fields of characteristic zero and all finite fields are perfect. Perfect fields are significant because Galois theory over these fields becomes simpler, since the general Galois assumption of field extensions being separable is automatically satisfied over these fields (see third condition above). Another important property of perfect fields is that they admit Witt vectors. More generally, a ring of characteristic p (p a prime) is called perfect if the Frobenius endomorphism is an automorphism. (When restricted to integral domains, this is equivalent to the above condition "every element of k is a pth power".) (Wikipedia).

Franz-Viktor Kuhlmann (Szczecin) / 06.03.2018 The word “imperfection” in our title not only refers to fields that are not perfect, but also to the defect of valued field extensions. The latter is not necessarily directly connected with imperfect fields but may always appear when at least

Jacob Lurie: A Riemann-Hilbert Correspondence in p-adic Geometry Part 2

At the start of the 20th century, David Hilbert asked which representations can arise by studying the monodromy of Fuchsian equations. This question was the starting point for a beautiful circle of ideas relating the topology of a complex algebraic variety X to the study of algebraic diffe

Peter SCHOLZE (oct 2011) - 3/6 Perfectoid Spaces and the Weight-Monodromy Conjecture

We will introduce the notion of perfectoid spaces. The theory can be seen as a kind of rigid geometry of infinite type, and the most important feature is that the theories over (deeply ramified extensions of) Q_p and over F_p((t)) are equivalent, generalizing to the relative situation a th
