Field extensions

Algebraic extension

In mathematics, an algebraic extension is a field extension L/K such that every element of the larger field L is algebraic over the smaller field K; that is, if every element of L is a root of a non-zero polynomial with coefficients in K . A field extension that is not algebraic, is said to be transcendental, and must contain transcendental elements, that is, elements that are not algebraic. The algebraic extensions of the field of the rational numbers are called algebraic number fields and are the main objects of study of algebraic number theory. Another example of a common algebraic extension is the extension of the real numbers by the complex numbers. (Wikipedia).

FIT2.3.3. Algebraic Extensions

Field Theory: We define an algebraic extension of a field F and show that successive algebraic extensions are also algebraic. This gives a useful criterion for checking algberaic elements. We finish with algebraic closures.

Algebraic and Transcendental Elements; Finite Extensions - Field Theory - Lecture 01

In this video we introduce the notion of algebraic and transcendental. We then introduce a notion of "finite extension" which will help us prove every element in an extension is algebraic. See @MatthewSalomone's Abstract Algebra 2 videos. They complement this presentation with better exa

Field Definition (expanded) - Abstract Algebra

The field is one of the key objects you will learn about in abstract algebra. Fields generalize the real numbers and complex numbers. They are sets with two operations that come with all the features you could wish for: commutativity, inverses, identities, associativity, and more. They

FIT2.2. Simple Extensions

Field Theory: We consider the case of simple extensions, where we adjoin a single element to a given field. The cases of transcendental and algebraic arise, depending on whether the kernel of the evaluation map is zero or not. In the algebraic case, we define the minimal polynomial, show

Extending arithmetic to infinity! | Real numbers and limits Math Foundations 103 | N J Wildberger

We are interested in investigating how to rigorously and carefully extend arithmetic with rational numbers to a wider domain involving the symbol 1/0, represented by a ``sideways 8''. First we have a look at the simpler case of natural number arithmetic, where extending to infinity is re

Integers modulo n

The integers modulo n under addition is a group. What are the integers mod n, though? In this video I take you step-by-step through the development of the integers mod 4 as an example. It is really easy to do and to understand.

Galois theory: Field extensions

This lecture is part of an online course on Galois theory. We review some basic results about field extensions and algebraic numbers. We define the degree of a field extension and show that a number is algebraic over a field if and only if it is contained in a finite extension. We use thi

23 Algebraic system isomorphism

Isomorphic algebraic systems are systems in which there is a mapping from one to the other that is a one-to-one correspondence, with all relations and operations preserved in the correspondence.

Galois theory: Transcendental extensions

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Galois theory. We describe transcendental extension of fields and transcendence bases. As applications we classify algebraically closed fields and show hw to define the dimension of an algebraic variety.

Mini course of the conference YMC*A, August 2021, University of Münster. Abstract: A conjecture of George Elliott dating back to the early 1990’s asks if separable, simple, nuclear C*-algebras are determined up to isomorphism by their K-theoretic and tracial data. Restricting to purely i
