## Abstract In this paper we study the Kummer extensions __K__ β² of a power series field __K__ = __k__ ((__X__~1~, β¦, __X~r~__)), where __k__ is an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic, with special emphasis in the case where __K__ β² is generated by a Puiseux power series.

β¦ Synopsis
Let K be a finite tamely ramified extension of Q p and let L/K be a totally ramified (Z/p n Z)-extension. Let L be a uniformizer for L, let be a generator for Gal(L/K), and let f (X) be an element of O K [X] such that ( L ) = f ( L ). We show that the reduction of f (X) modulo the maximal ideal of O K determines a certain subextension of L/K up to isomorphism. We use this result to study the field extensions generated by periodic points of a p-adic dynamical system.

The structure of GALols groups of local fields has been studied by many mathematicians. The description of maximal p-extensions was obtained by 1. R . SAFAREVIC [S] and S . P. DEMUSHKIN [D]. Important results about the GALOIS group of an algebraic closure of local fields were proved by K. IWASAWA [
