Galois theory, named after Évariste Galois, provides a connection between field theory and group theory. Using Galois theory, certain problems in field theory can be reduced to group theory, which is, in some sense, simpler and better understood.

Extension field $\mathbb{C}(t,u)$ over $\mathbb{C}(t^n,u^n)$

What the above argument proves is that the extension is either trivial, or not Galois. My first guess was that it isn't Galois, but it was a stupid mistake! In fact, it is trivial. Denote $z=u+it$. T …

When is a bilinear form equivalent to a trace form?

I think the starting point should be the algebra of selfadjoint operators, i.e. the subalgebra $A\subset End_K(V)$ which consists of operators $f$ such that $$\langle fx,y\rangle=\langle x, fy\rangle …
