Let $K/k$ be a finitely generated field extension of characteristic $0$, and let $mathcalS$ be the set of field extensions of $k$ which have finite index in $K$. Is it true that $textHom_k text-linear (K, K) cong textcolimit_F in mathcalS textHom_F (K, K)$ as $k$-algebras under composition?

    So $K/k$ is not necessarily module-finite. I see.

No. For instance, if $k=mathbbQ$ and $K=mathbbQ(x)$, then $mathcalS$ is countable and $operatornameHom_F(K,K)$ is countable for any $Fin S$, so the colimit is countable. However, $operatornameHom_k(K,K)$ is uncountable since $K$ has infinite dimension over $k$.

    As stated, the statement would certainly not be true, because the only element in the set on the right hand side is the identity. Thus, I assume that there has been a typographical mistake, and $S$ are in fact the finite field extensions of $k$ which are subfields of $K$.



    In this case, observe, in the case of field towers $k le S le T le K$ the existence of a forgetful functor
    $$
    mathcal C_T to mathcal C_S,
    $$
    where $mathcal C_T$ is the category whose only object is $K$, together with the $T$-linear morphisms. This then induces the morphisms of algebrae
    $$
    operatornameAut_T(K) to operatornameAut_S(K)
    $$
    which then form the inductive system over which the colimit is taken.



    Note that in this case, $S = k$ is a minimum (or maximum, whichever way you define inductive systems), and it is quite a general theorem that when a minimum exists, this minimum is precisely the inductive limit.
