Proof. Here we suppose that F has characteristic 0. So F has as a subfield, and as a subring.

As is infinite, we can find in an integer λ which satisfies (5.16):

β r + λ γ s β i + λ γ j pour ( r , s ) ( i , j ) .

The remainder of of the proof is unchanged, and at each step of the induction, we choose such a λ , so the primitive element α = t 1 α 1 + + t n α n satisfies t i . □
