Abstract

In the paper an answer to a problem "When different orders of R(X) (where R is a real closed field) lead to the same real place ?" is given. We use this result to show that the space of R\mathbb R-places of the field R(Y)\textbf{R}(Y) (where \textbf{R} is any real closure of R(X)\mathbb R(X)) is not metrizable space. Thus the space M(R(X,Y))M(\mathbb R(X,Y)) is not metrizable, too.
