Fundamental Group in nonzero characteristic

Manish Kumar

Published 2006-10-03, updated 2006-12-20Version 4

A proof of freeness of the commutator subgroup of the fundamental group of a smooth irreducible affine curve over a countable algebraically closed field of nonzero characteristic. A description of the abelianizations of the fundamental groups of smooth affine curves over an algebracially closed field of nonzero characteristic is also given.

Comments: The main theorem (Theorem 4.1) now asserts the result for only countable fields. Proofs of patching results have been simplified
