| Jul 21, 2022 at 22:26 | comment | added | Carl-Fredrik Nyberg Brodda | @SaalHardali A few years late, but saying that the unsolvability of polynomial equations by radicals is "outside group theory" when it was the very thing that gave rise to group theory in the first place seems a bit strange! After all, why do you think they are called "solvable" groups? :-) | |
| Nov 7, 2015 at 15:32 | comment | added | Saal Hardali | Are there any consequences of this outside group theory? Analogous to how non-solvability of the symmetric groups of degree > 4 implies solution by radicals for equations of degree > 4 is impossible. | |
