Reconstruction from Milnor K-theory modulo the characteristic

OpenAI

Abstract

Let K and L be finitely generated extensions of transcendence degree at least two over algebraically closed fields of characteristic p. We prove that every isomorphism of their first Milnor K-groups modulo p preserving the degree-two Steinberg relations is a nonzero scalar multiple of the map induced by a unique field isomorphism. The proof recovers projective lines over the subfields of pth powers by an elementary calculation with derivations.
