Shafarevich's theorem on solvable Galois groups

In mathematics, Shafarevich's theorem states that any finite solvable group is the Galois group of some finite extension of the rational numbers. It was first proved by Igor Shafarevich, though Alexander Schmidt later pointed out a gap in the proof, which was fixed by Shafarevich. (Wikipedia).

Lie groups: Lie's theorem

This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Lie groups. This lecture is about Lie's theorem, which implies that a complex solvable Lie algebra is isomorphic to a subalgebra of the upper triangular matrices. . For the other lectures in the course see https://www.youtube.com/playl

Lagrange theorem

We finally get to Lagrange's theorem for finite groups. If this is the first video you see, rather start at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7OgJi6o9po&t=6s In this video I show you how the set that makes up a group can be partitioned by a subgroup and its cosets. I also take a look at

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: 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: 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

Theorem 1.10 - part 10.5 - Neron-Ogg-Shafarevich - Structure of m-Torsion of A mod p

Here we use the theory of Neron Models, Chevalley-Rosenlicht, and a handful of other things to determine the structure of the torsion of an Abelian variety with bad reduction modulo p. This is used in proving the hard part of the Neron-Ogg-Shafarevich criterion: if an abelian variety has a

Order of Cosets Equals Order of Subgroup | Abstract Algebra

We prove that for a group G and a subgroup H, every coset Ha of H has the same order as H, and thus all the cosets of the subgroup H have the same order as each other. This is our final step to prove Lagrange's Theorem, which states for a finite group G and subgroup H, the order of G is a

Lagrange's theorem is another very important theorem in group theory, and is very intuitive once you see it the right way, like what is presented here. This video also discusses the idea of subgroups and cosets, which are crucial in the development of the Lagrange's theorem. Other than c

Ignat Soroko: Intersections and joins of subgroups in free groups

Abstract : The famous Hanna Neumann Conjecture (now the Friedman--Mineyev theorem) gives an upper bound for the ranks of the intersection of arbitrary subgroups H and K of a non-abelian free group. It is an interesting question to `quantify' this bound with respect to the rank of the join

Why you can't solve quintic equations (Galois theory approach) #SoME2

An entry to #SoME2. It is a famous theorem (called Abel-Ruffini theorem) that there is no quintic formula, or quintic equations are not solvable; but very likely you are not told the exact reason why. Here is how traditionally we knew that such a formula cannot exist, using Galois theory.
