I have another question about ring b.com/tag/theory">theory.

Let KK b a field, with p>0p>0 its characteristic. Define the set T= {xK:xpn=x}T= {x∈K:xpn=x}. I had to prove that |T|pn|T|≤pn.


Research effort

We may assume that pp is prime, because otherwise the ring would have zero divisors. The exercise stated that TT itself is a field. I tried several things to prove the statement above. First of all xT  xpn=x  x(xp2b.com/tag/1">1b.com/tag/1">1)=0  x=0  or  xborder: 0px; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; font-stretch: inhe
