Abstract

For perfect fields $k$ satisfying $[\bar k:k]>2$, we construct new normal subgroups of the plane Cremona group and provide an elementary proof of its non-simplicity, following the melody of the recent proof by Blanc, Lamy and Zimmermann that the Cremona group of rank $n$ over (subfields of) the complex numbers is not simple for $n\geq3$.<br />Comment: to appear in Annales de l'Institut Fourier
