Abstract:
We give a new proof, in scheme-theoretic language, of Tate's classical result on genus change of curves over imperfect fields in characteristic  . Namely, for normal geometrically integral curves, the difference between arithmetic and geometric genus over the algebraic closure is divisible by  .
