Field (mathematics) | Algebraic number theory

Algebraic number field

In mathematics, an algebraic number field (or simply number field) is an extension field of the field of rational numbers such that the field extension has finite degree (and hence is an algebraic field extension).Thus is a field that contains and has finite dimension when considered as a vector space over . The study of algebraic number fields, and, more generally, of algebraic extensions of the field of rational numbers, is the central topic of algebraic number theory. This study reveals hidden structures behind usual rational numbers, by using algebraic methods. (Wikipedia).

What is a field ?

Definition of a Field In this video, I define the concept of a field, which is basically any set where you can add, subtract, add, and divide things. Then I show some neat properties that have to be true in fields. Enjoy! What is an Ordered Field: https://youtu.be/6mc5E6x7FMQ Check out

FIT2.3.1. Algebraic Numbers

Field Theory: We consider the property of algebraic in terms of finite degree, and we define algebraic numbers as those complex numbers that are algebraic over the rationals. Then we give an overview of algebraic numbers with examples.

Number theory Full Course [A to Z]

Number theory (or arithmetic or higher arithmetic in older usage) is a branch of pure #mathematics devoted primarily to the study of the integers and integer-valued functions. Number theorists study prime numbers as well as the properties of objects made out of integers (for example, ratio

Field Theory - Algebraically Closed Fields - Lecture 9

In this video we define what an algebraically closed field and assert without proof that they exist. We also explain why if you can find a single root for any polynomial, then you can find them all.

Algebraic number theory and rings I | Math History | NJ Wildberger

In the 19th century, algebraists started to look at extension fields of the rational numbers as new domains for doing arithmetic. In this way the notion of an abstract ring was born, through the more concrete examples of rings of algebraic integers in number fields. Key examples include

The Structure of Fields: What is a field and a connection between groups and fields

This video is primarily meant to help develop some ideas around the structure of fields and a connection between groups and fields (which will allow me to create more abstract algebra videos in the future! 😀😅🤓) 00:00 Intro 01:04 What is a Field? Here we give the definition of a field in

Galois theory: Algebraic closure

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Galois theory. We define the algebraic closure of a field as a sort of splitting field of all polynomials, and check that it is algebraically closed. We hen give a topological proof that the field C of complex numbers is algebraically
