Saturated subfields and invariants of finite groups
  Every subfield $\kk(\phi)$ of the field of rational functions $\kk(x_1,...,x_n)$ is contained in a unique maximal subfield of the form $\kk(\psi)$. The element $\psi$ is called generative for the element $\phi$. A subfield of $\kk(x_1,...,x_n)$ is called saturated if it contains a generative element of each its element. We study the saturation property for subfields of invariants $\kk(x_1,...,x_n)^G$, where $G$ is a finite group of automorphisms of the field $\kk(x_1,...,x_n)$.
