Field (mathematics) | Algebraic number theory
In abstract algebra and number theory, Kummer theory provides a description of certain types of field extensions involving the adjunction of nth roots of elements of the base field. The theory was originally developed by Ernst Eduard Kummer around the 1840s in his pioneering work on Fermat's Last Theorem. The main statements do not depend on the nature of the field – apart from its characteristic, which should not divide the integer n – and therefore belong to abstract algebra. The theory of cyclic extensions of the field K when the characteristic of K does divide n is called Artin–Schreier theory. Kummer theory is basic, for example, in class field theory and in general in understanding abelian extensions; it says that in the presence of enough roots of unity, cyclic extensions can be understood in terms of extracting roots. The main burden in class field theory is to dispense with extra roots of unity ('descending' back to smaller fields); which is something much more serious. (Wikipedia).

The Schrodinger Equation is (Almost) Impossible to Solve.
Sure, the equation is easily solvable for perfect / idealized systems, but almost impossible for any real systems. The Schrodinger equation is the governing equation of quantum mechanics, and determines the relationship between a system, its surroundings, and a system's wave function. Th

Albert Einstein, Holograms and Quantum Gravity
In the latest campaign to reconcile Einstein’s theory of gravity with quantum mechanics, many physicists are studying how a higher dimensional space that includes gravity arises like a hologram from a lower dimensional particle theory. Read about the second episode of the new season here:

Koopman Spectral Analysis (Continuous Spectrum)
In this video, we discuss how to use Koopman theory for dynamical systems with a continuous eigenvalue spectrum. These systems are quite common, such as a pendulum, where the period deforms continuously as energy is added to the system. To handle these systems, we use a neural network a

Galois theory: Kummer extensions
This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Galois theory. We describe Galois extensions with cyclic Galois group of order n in the case when the base field contains all n'th roots of unity and has characteristic not dividing n. We show that all such extensions are radical. As an
