Abstract
Let K be an inversive difference-differential field and L a (not necessarily inversive) finitely generated difference-differential field extension of K. We consider the natural filtration of the extension L/K associated with a finite system \(\eta \) of its difference-differential generators and prove that for any intermediate difference-differential field F, the transcendence degrees of the components of the induced filtration of F are expressed by a certain numerical polynomial \(\chi _{K, F,\eta }(t)\). This polynomial is closely connected with the dimension Hilbert-type polynomial of a submodule of the module of Kähler differentials \(\varOmega _{L^{*}|K}\) where \(L^{*}\) is the inversive closure of L. We prove some properties of polynomials \(\chi _{K, F,\eta }(t)\) and use them for the study of the Krull-type dimension of the extension L/K. In the last part of the paper, we present a generalization of the obtained results to multidimensional filtrations of L/K associated with partitions of the sets of basic derivations and translations.
