Abstract
Let be a field and let be the field of rational functions in variables over . Let and let be a positive integer such that . Is it possible to express each as a rational function in and over ? It is not difficult to prove that this can be done but it is another matter to show how this is done. We answer the above question affirmatively with a nonconstructive proof and a constructive proof.
