Abstract

A computably presented algebraic field FF has a \emph{splitting algorithm} if it is decidable which polynomials in F[X]F[X] are irreducible there. We prove that such a field is computably categorical iff it is decidable which pairs of elements of FF belong to the same orbit under automorphisms. We also show that this criterion is equivalent to the relative computable categoricity of FF.
