A ruled residue theorem for function fields of hyperelliptic curves
Abstract
We study residually transcendental extensions of a valuation $v$ on a field $E$ to function fields of hyperelliptic curves over $E$. We show that $v$ has at most finitely many extensions to the function field of a hyperelliptic curve over $E$, for which the residue field extension is transcendental but not ruled, assuming that the residue characteristic of $v$ is either zero or greater than the degree of the hyperelliptic curve.
