Özet

We study the automorphism group of the algebraic closure of a substructure A of a pseudo- finite field F . We show that the behavior of this group, even when A is large, depends essentially on the roots of unity in F . For almost all completions of the theory of pseudofinite fields, we show that over A, algebraic closure agrees with definable closure, as soon as A contains the relative algebraic closure of the prime field. © 2012, Association for Symbolic Logic.
