Splitting of prime ideals in Galois extensions

In mathematics, the interplay between the Galois group G of a Galois extension L of a number field K, and the way the prime ideals P of the ring of integers OK factorise as products of prime ideals of OL, provides one of the richest parts of algebraic number theory. The splitting of prime ideals in Galois extensions is sometimes attributed to David Hilbert by calling it Hilbert theory. There is a geometric analogue, for ramified coverings of Riemann surfaces, which is simpler in that only one kind of subgroup of G need be considered, rather than two. This was certainly familiar before Hilbert. (Wikipedia).

Galois theory: Splitting fields

This lecture is part of an online course on Galois theory. We define the splitting field of a polynomial p over a field K (a field that is generated by roots of p and such that p splits into linear factors). We give a few examples, and show that it exists and is unique up to isomorphism

FIT4.3.2. Example of Galois Group over Finite Field

Field Theory: We compare the splitting fields of the polynomial f(x)=x^8-1 over the rationals and Z/5. We compute the Galois groups and identify Galois correspondences.

FIT4.3.1. Galois Group of Order 8

Field Theory: Let K be Q[sqrt(2), sqrt(3), sqrt(5)], the splitting field of f(x) = (x^2-2)(x^2-3)(x^2-5) over Q. Find the Galois group of K over Q, find all subgroups of the Galois group, and find all subfields of K over Q.

Galois theory: Normal extensions

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Galois theory. We define normal extensions of fields by three equivalent conditions, and give some examples of normal and non-normal extensions. In particular we show that a normal extension of a normal extension need not be normal.

Field Theory - the Extension Lemma - Lecture 14

--Let \sigma: F_1 \to F_2 be an isomorphism of fields. --Let f_1(x) \in F_1[x] and let f_2(x) be the image in f_1(x) under the natural isomorphism F_1[x] \to F_2[x]. --Let L_1 is the splitting field of f_1(x) and L_2 the splitting field of f_2(x). Lemma: The isomorphism \sigma extends t

Galois theory: Finite fields

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Galois theory. We use the theory of splitting fields to classify finite fields: there is one of each prime power order (up to isomorphism). We give a few examples of small order, and point out that there seems to be no good choice for

Galois theory: Infinite Galois extensions

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Galois theory. We show how to extend Galois theory to infinite Galois extensions. The main difference is that the Galois group has a topology, and intermediate field extensions now correspond to closed subgroups of the Galois group. We
