Ax-Grothendieck for algebraic extensions of ZMod p
#
This file proves that if R
is an algebraic extension of a finite field,
then any injective polynomial map R^n → R^n
is also surjective.
This proof is required for the true Ax-Grothendieck theorem, which proves the same result for any algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.
TODO #
The proof of the theorem for characteristic zero is not in mathlib, but it is at https://github.com/Jlh18/ModelTheoryInLean8
