As an application, we obtain coefficient fields of the completion of a regular local ring of positive characteristic in terms of Hasse-Schmidt derivations14 pages; A gap in the statement of Proposition (2.7) has been fixed and the proof of Theorem (3.14) has been adaptedCommutative Algebra13H05 (Primary) 13N15, 13N10, 13A35 (Secondary)Hasse-Schmidt Derivations and Coefficient Fields in Positive Characteristicstext
