Abstract

The tilting correspondence is a fundamental property of perfectoid fields. In this note, we show that the tilting construction can also be used to detect perfectoid fields among nonarchimedean fields. In particular, for K a complete subfield of ℂp (a completed algebraic closure of ℚp), K is perfectoid if and only if its tilt is not algebraic over \mathbbFp. We also include some conjectures on APF (arithmetically profinite) extensions, perfectoid fields, and their relations.
