(Edited, since <u> compiles in HTML as an underlyning tag, dan.)

K.<u> = GF(q)
KT.<u> = K.extension(2)
KTT.<u> = K.extension(6)

In this case KTT is a degree 12 extension. My question is:

Can I obtain KTT by KTT.<u> = K.extension(x^6 - a), where x^6 -a is some irreducible polynomial over KT ???

Documentation gives nothing about this towering of fields.

The above was edited to see the real question. Note that "displayed code" can be marked as such with an indent of 4 spaces, or hit Control+K after marking it, or press the button in the edit mask with 101 and 010 after marking it. In-line the marking is done by ticks.

The following worked for me:

sage: q = 27
sage: K.<u> = GF(q)
sage: K.extension(2)
Finite Field in z6 of size 3^6
sage: KT.<a> = K.extension(2)
sage: KT
Finite Field in a of size 3^6
sage: RT.<Z> = PolynomialRing(KT)
sage: KTT.<b> = KT.extension(Z^6-a)
sage: KTT
Univariate Quotient Polynomial Ring in b over Finite Field in a of size 3^6 with modulus b^6 + 2*a
sage: b.minpoly()
x^6 + 2*a
