Adjoining an element with given minimal polynomial to a DVR of characteristic p.

Let $A$ be a DVR of characteristic $p$, with $pi$ a uniformising parameter, with $K=frac(A)$ the field of fractions. Consider the extension $L=K(alpha)$ where $alpha$ has minimal polynomial $y^p+pi^b y+pi^c$, with $0<bleq c$. The problem is to show the existence of an element of $L$ with minimal polynomial $y^p+upi y+vpi^{p(c-b)}$, with $u,vin A^*$.



I think this is going to be manipulating the known minimal polynomial of $alpha$ to produce such another element, eg $alpha pi^k+pi^l$, for $k,linmathbb{Z}$, possibly using the Frobenius map.



I wasn't able to make this work however, so it may require a more sophisticated idea. Any hints would be much appreciated.

  • I think your attempt is good. For the simplest case $b=c=1$, setting $alpha+1$ as the new element works. For the general case, I would try $k=l :=c-b$, in other words, the new element would be $pi^{c-b} cdot(alpha+1)$.
