Possible failure of $ef=n$ for a degree $n$ extension of a field complete to a nondiscrete nonarchimedean valuation?
Let $T$ be the maximal tamely ramified extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with $p>2$, and $K$ be the completion of $T_p=T(\mu_{p^{\infty}})$.
It’s clear that $|K^{\times}|=p^{\mathbb{Q}}$: in particular, ...

Residue field of DVR
Talking about DVRs immediately is the wrong way to solve this problem. The right way is to use the fact that you're dealing with a scheme of finite type over $k$:
Suppose $C$ is our curve and let $U\...

Find the possible values for $[\mathbb{Q}(\alpha,\beta):\mathbb{Q}]$ and provide an example of $(\alpha,\beta)$ for each possible value
If $\left[\mathbb Q[\alpha,\beta]:\mathbb Q[\alpha]\right]=3,$ then $\beta$ must have a minimal polynomial some cubic monic polynomial $p(x)$ in $\mathbb Q[\alpha][x].$
But $x$ has a minimal ...
