Abstract
We show that for k a perfect field of characteristic p, there exist endomorphisms of the completed algebraic closure of k((t)) which are not bijec-tive. As a corollary, we resolve a question of Fargues and Fontaine by showing that for p a prime and Cp a completed algebraic closure of Qp, there exist closed points of the Fargues-Fontaine curve associated to Cp whose residue fields are not (even abstractly) isomorphic to Cp as topological fields.
