Separable algebras and separably closed local rings (a.k.a strictly Henselian local rings)

Let $A$ be a local ring. Say a monic $f\in A[x]$ is unramifiable if it admits a simple root in its universal splitting algebra (equivalently, it admits a simple root in any ring over which it splits). ...

Separability of $\mathbb{C}[x,y_1,\ldots,y_r]$ over $\mathbb{C} + (h,y_1,\ldots,y_r)$

The answer to this MO question says the following: Lemma 1. Let $h \in \mathbf C[x]$ be a polynomial of degree $n \geq 2$. Then $\mathbf C+(h) \subseteq \mathbf C[x]$ is unramified if and only if $h$ ...
