Extract
Let be a smooth projective, geometrically irreducible curve over a finite field . We fix a rational point ∞on , and consider the ring A of functions on regular away from ∞. We set k to be the function field of and k∞ its completion at ∞. After taking algebraic closure we obtain the field whose elements will be called “numbers”.
