Finite fields

Finite field

In mathematics, a finite field or Galois field (so-named in honor of Évariste Galois) is a field that contains a finite number of elements. As with any field, a finite field is a set on which the operations of multiplication, addition, subtraction and division are defined and satisfy certain basic rules. The most common examples of finite fields are given by the integers mod p when p is a prime number. The order of a finite field is its number of elements, which is either a prime number or a prime power. For every prime number p and every positive integer k there are fields of order all of which are isomorphic. Finite fields are fundamental in a number of areas of mathematics and computer science, including number theory, algebraic geometry, Galois theory, finite geometry, cryptography and coding theory.

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

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.

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
