Steinberg symbol

In mathematics a Steinberg symbol is a pairing function which generalises the Hilbert symbol and plays a role in the algebraic K-theory of fields. It is named after mathematician Robert Steinberg. For a field F we define a Steinberg symbol (or simply a symbol) to be a function, where G is an abelian group, written multiplicatively, such that * is bimultiplicative; * if then . The symbols on F derive from a "universal" symbol, which may be regarded as taking values in . By a theorem of Matsumoto, this group is and is part of the Milnor K-theory for a field. (Wikipedia).

Andrew Putman - The Steinberg representation is irreducible

The Steinberg representation is a topologically-defined representation of groups like GL_n(k) that plays a fundamental role in the cohomology of arithmetic groups. The main theorem I will discuss says that for infinite fields k, the Steinberg representation is irreducible. For finite field

Theory of numbers: Jacobi symbol

This lecture is part of an online undergraduate course on the theory of numbers. We define the Jacobi symbol as an extension of the Legendre symbol, and show how to use it to calculate the Legendre symbol fast. We also briefly mention the Kronecker symbol. For the other lectures in t
