On common extensions of valued fields

Given a valuation $v$ on a field $K$, an extension $\bar{v}$ to an algebraic closure and an extension $w$ to $K(X)$. We want to study the common extensions of $\bar{v}$ and $w$ to $\bar{K}(X)$. First we give a detailed link between the minimal pairs notion and the key polynomials notion. Then we prove that in the case when $w$ is a transcendental extension, then any sequence of key polynomials admits a maximal element, and in case this sequence does not contain a limit key polynomial, then any root of the last key polynomial, describe a common extension.
