Relative Algebraic Closure #
In this file we construct the relative algebraic closure of a field extension.
Main Definitions #
algebraicClosure F Eis the relative algebraic closure (i.e. the maximal algebraic subextension) of the field extensionE / F, which is defined to be the integral closure ofFinE.
The relative algebraic closure of a field F in a field extension E,
also called the maximal algebraic subextension of E / F,
is defined to be the subalgebra integralClosure F E
upgraded to an intermediate field (since F and E are both fields).
This is exactly the intermediate field of E / F consisting of all integral/algebraic elements.
Equations
Instances For
If i is an F-algebra homomorphism from E to K, then i x is contained in
algebraicClosure F K if and only if x is contained in algebraicClosure F E.
If i is an F-algebra homomorphism from E to K, then the preimage of
algebraicClosure F K under the map i is equal to algebraicClosure F E.
If i is an F-algebra homomorphism from E to K, then the image of algebraicClosure F E
under the map i is contained in algebraicClosure F K.
If K / E / F is a field extension tower, such that K / E has no non-trivial algebraic
subextensions (this means that it is purely transcendental),
then the image of algebraicClosure F E in K is equal to algebraicClosure F K.
If i is an F-algebra isomorphism of E and K, then the image of algebraicClosure F E
under the map i is equal to algebraicClosure F K.
If E and K are isomorphic as F-algebras, then algebraicClosure F E and
algebraicClosure F K are also isomorphic as F-algebras.

Instances For
The algebraic closure of F in E is algebraic over F.
The algebraic closure of F in E is the integral closure of F in E.
An intermediate field of E / F is contained in the algebraic closure of F in E
if all of its elements are algebraic over F.
An intermediate field of E / F is contained in the algebraic closure of F in E
if it is algebraic over F.
An intermediate field of E / F is contained in the algebraic closure of F in E
if and only if it is algebraic over F.
If E / F is a field extension and E is algebraically closed, then the algebraic closure
of F in E is equal to F if and only if F is algebraically closed.
If E is algebraically closed, then the algebraic closure of F in E is an absolute
algebraic closure of F.
If K / E / F is a field extension tower, then algebraicClosure F K is contained in
algebraicClosure E K.
If K / E / F is a field extension tower, such that E / F is algebraic, then
algebraicClosure F K is equal to algebraicClosure E K.
If K / E / F is a field extension tower, then E adjoin algebraicClosure F K is contained
in algebraicClosure E K.
Let E / F be a field extension. If a polynomial p
splits in E, then it splits in the relative algebraic closure of F in E already.
