Abstract

Continuing work of Duret, we treat the relation between isomorphism and elementary equivalence of function fields over algebraically closed fields. For function fields of curves, these are ‘usually’ the same, but in characteristic zero, for elliptic curves with complex multiplication, a weak variant of elementary equivalence of their function fields corresponds to isomorphism of the endomorphism rings of the curves, not to isomorphism of the curves themselves.
