Abstract

We construct a bad field in characteristic zero. That is, we construct an algebraically closed field which carries a notion of dimension analogous to Zariski-dimension, with an infinite proper multiplicative subgroup of dimension one, and such that the field itself has dimension two. This answers a longstanding open question by Zilber.

Zusammenfassung

Wir konstruieren einen schlechten Körper der Charakteristik Null. Mit anderen Worten, wir konstruieren einen algebraisch abgeschlossenen Körper mit einem Dimensionsbegriff analog der Zariski-Dimension, zusammen mit einer unendlichen echten multiplikativen Untergruppe der Dimension Eins, so daβ der Körper selbst Dimension Zwei hat. Dies beantwortet eine alte Frage von Zilber.
