The Galois group of a Galois extension of local fields with an inseparable residue class field extension has two intertwined filtrations with ramification groups. This note contains some elementary results on the structure of these filtrations, that are similar to those given by J.-P. Serre in "Corp

✦ Synopsis
Let k be a perfect field of characteristic p and let # # Aut(k((t))). Define the ramification numbers of # by i m =v t (# p m (t)&t)&1. We give a characterization of the sequences (i m ) which are the sequences of ramification numbers of infinite order automorphisms of formal power series fields over finite fields. Then, given a perfect field k, we give sufficient conditions on (i m ) to be the sequence of ramification numbers of an autormorphism # # Aut k (k((t))) and we investigate these sequences (i m ) in the case where there exists _ # Aut k (k((t))) such that _#=#_ with _{# & for all & # Z p .

We recall from [l] that medial fields can exist in certain models of ZERMELO-FR~ESKEL set theory, and that if F is a medial field, then .F can be represented as the direct limit of a strictly increasing m-sequence (9n)lL<w of finite subfields. If we let 11 be the (necessarily nonzero) characteristic
