On caractérise les corps K satisfaisant le théorème de l’axe principal à l’aide de propriétés des formes trace des extensions finies de K. Grâce à la caract érisation de ces mêmes corps due à Waterhouse, on retrouve à partir de là, de façon élémentaire, un résultat de Becker selon lequel un pro-2-groupe qui se réalise comme groupe de Galois absolu d’un tel corps K est engendré par des involutions.

Abstract

Abstract

We characterize general fields K, satisfying the Principal Axis Theorem, by means of properties of trace forms of the finite extensions of K. From this and Waterhouse’s characterization of the same fields, we rediscover, in quite an elementary way, a result of Becker according to which a pro-2-group which occurs as the absolute Galois group of such a field K, is generated by involutions.
