Extension by definitions

In mathematical logic, more specifically in the proof theory of first-order theories, extensions by definitions formalize the introduction of new symbols by means of a definition. For example, it is common in naive set theory to introduce a symbol for the set which has no member. In the formal setting of first-order theories, this can be done by adding to the theory a new constant and the new axiom , meaning "for all x, x is not a member of ". It can then be proved that doing so adds essentially nothing to the old theory, as should be expected from a definition. More precisely, the new theory is a conservative extension of the old one.

FIT2.3.3. Algebraic Extensions

Field Theory: We define an algebraic extension of a field F and show that successive algebraic extensions are also algebraic. This gives a useful criterion for checking algberaic elements. We finish with algebraic closures.

FIT2.1. Field Extensions

Field Theory: Let F be a subfield of the field K. We consider K as a vector space over F and define the degree of K over F as the dimension. We give a degree formula for successive extensions, and consider extensions in terms of bases. EDIT: Typo - around 3:15, it should be cube root(2

What is a continuous extension?

Continuous Extension In this video, I define the concept of a continuous extension of a function and show that a function has a continuous extension if and only if it is uniformly continuous. This explains yet again why uniform continuity is so awesome Uniform Continuity: https://youtu.b

Epsilon delta limit (Example 3): Infinite limit at a point

This is the continuation of the epsilon-delta series! You can find Examples 1 and 2 on blackpenredpen's channel. Here I use an epsilon-delta argument to calculate an infinite limit, and at the same time I'm showing you how to calculate a right-hand-side limit. Enjoy!

Basic/Primitive Extensions and Minimal Polynomials - Field Theory - Lecture 02

A "basic" or "primitive" extension of a field F is a new field F(alpha) where alpha in K an extension of F. We give some basic properties of extensions. Most importantly introduce the concept of minimal polynomials. @MatthewSalomone has some good videos on this already which might be mor

Field Definition (expanded) - Abstract Algebra

The field is one of the key objects you will learn about in abstract algebra. Fields generalize the real numbers and complex numbers. They are sets with two operations that come with all the features you could wish for: commutativity, inverses, identities, associativity, and more. They

FIT2.2. Simple Extensions

Field Theory: We consider the case of simple extensions, where we adjoin a single element to a given field. The cases of transcendental and algebraic arise, depending on whether the kernel of the evaluation map is zero or not. In the algebraic case, we define the minimal polynomial, show

We show that for a random d-dimensional 0/1-polytope the smallest size of any semidefinite extended formulation is exponential in d by building upon nothing else than a simple well-known property of maximum volume inscribed ellipsoids of convex bodies. In particular, the proof does not rel
