Finite rings

Galois ring

In mathematics, Galois rings are a type of finite commutative rings which generalize both the finite fields and the rings of integers modulo a prime power. A Galois ring is constructed from the ring similar to how a finite field is constructed from . It is a Galois extension of , when the concept of a Galois extension is generalized beyond the context of fields. Galois rings were studied by Krull (1924), and independently by Janusz (1966) and by Raghavendran (1969), who both introduced the name Galois ring. They are named after Évariste Galois, similar to Galois fields, which is another name for finite fields. Galois rings have found applications in coding theory, where certain codes are best understood as linear codes over using Galois rings GR(4, r). (Wikipedia).

Galois theory: Introduction

This lecture is part of an online course on Galois theory. This is an introductory lecture, giving an informal overview of Galois theory. We discuss some historical examples of problems that it was used to solve, such as the Abel-Ruffini theorem that degree 5 polynomials cannot in genera

Galois theory II | Math History | NJ Wildberger

We continue our historical introduction to the ideas of Galois and others on the fundamental problem of how to solve polynomial equations. In this video we focus on Galois' insights into how extending our field of coefficients, typically by introducing some radicals, the symmetries of the

FIT4.1. Galois Group of a Polynomial

EDIT: There was an in-video annotation that was erased in 2018. My source (Herstein) assumes characteristic 0 for the initial Galois theory section, so separability is an automatic property. Let's assume that unless noted. In general, Galois = separable plus normal. Field Theory: We

Galois theory I | Math History | NJ Wildberger

Galois theory gives a beautiful insight into the classical problem of when a given polynomial equation in one variable, such as x^5-3x^2+4=0 has solutions which can be expressed using radicals. Historically the problem of solving algebraic equations is one of the great drivers of algebra,

Galois theory: Fundamental theorem of algebra

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Galois theory. We use Galois theory to give a (mostly) algebraic proof that the complex numbers form an algebraically closed field.

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

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

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 6.4: Galois groups

Visual Group Theory, Lecture 6.4: Galois groups The Galois group Gal(f(x)) of a polynomial f(x) is the automorphism group of its splitting field. The degree of a chain of field extensions satisfies a "tower law", analogous to the tower law for the index of a chain of subgroups. This hints
