Let A be an algebraic function field with a constant field k which is an algebraic number field. For each prime p of k, we consider a local completion kp and set Ap = Ak ꕕ kp. Then we have the question:

Is it true that A/k is a rational function field (i.e., A is a purely transcendental extension of k) if Ap/kp is so for every p ? In this note we shall discuss the question in a slightly different and hence easier case.
