Abstract

Let L F be a finite separable extension, L* = L{0}, and T( L* F*) the torsion subgroup of L* F*. When L F is an abelian extension T( L* F*) is explicitly determined. This information is used to study the structure of T( L* F*). In particular, T( F(α)* F*) when am = a ∈ F is explicitly determined.
