Abstract

Let KK be a field of characteristic zero. We deal with the algebraic closure of the field of fractions of the ring of formal power series K[[x1,,xr]]K[[x_1,\ldots,x_r]], r2r\geq 2. More precisely, we view the latter as a subfield of an iterated Puiseux series field Kr\mathcal{K}_r. On the one hand, given y0Kry_0\in \mathcal{K}_r which is algebraic, we provide an algorithm that reconstructs the space of all polynomials which annihilates y0y_0 up to a certain order (arbitrarily high). On the other hand, given a polynomial PK[[x1,,xr]][y]P\in K[[x_1,\ldots,x_r]][y] with simple roots, we derive a closed form formula for the coefficients of a root y0y_0 in terms of the coefficients of PP and a fixed initial part of y0y_0.
