Abstract

A theorem of Douady says that the absolute Galois group of a rational function field F(x) in one variable over an algebraically closed field F of characteristic 0 is a free profinite group. A new method is proposed to extend Douady’s theorem from the case of the complex number field F = ℂ to the case of an arbitrary field.
