tomgirl
Language: English
Part of speech: noun

text: Cyclotomic fields are fields obtained by adjoining to #92;Q roots of unity, i.e. roots of polynomials of the form Xⁿ-1, although the reader is warned that this terminology will be extended in §2.[…]Cyclotomic fields play a fundamental role in a number of arithmetic problems: for instance primes in arithmetic progression (see VIII,§4) and Fermat's Last Theorem (VII,§1).
ref: 1991, A. Fröhlich, M. J. Taylor, “Algebraic Number Theory”, in Paperback, Cambridge University Press, published 1993, page 205:
text: At about the same time Kummer introduced his "ideal numbers," defined an equivalence relation on them, and derived, for cyclotomic fields, certain special properties of the number of equivalence classes, the so-called class number of a cyclotomic field—in our terminology, the order of the ideal class group of the cyclotomic field.
ref: 2007, Israel Kleiner, A History of Abstract Algebra, Springer (Birkhäuser), page 26:
text: As in the case of the Drinfel'd double,¹³¹ it can be shown that these fields are subfields of the cyclotomic field #92;Q#95;N. Since the Galois group of #92;Q#95;N is abelian, every subfield of the cyclotomic field is normal, and consequently preserved by the action of the Galois group of #92;Q#95;N.

In a quadratic field mathbf Q(√), D a squarefree integer, with class number 1 any algebraic integer can be decomposed uniquely into primes but for only 21 domains Euclidean algorithms are known.
text: The foundations of the theory of binary quadratic forms, the forerunner of our modern theory of quadratic fields, were laid by Gauss in his famous Disquisitiones Arithmeticae.
ref: 1990, Alan Baker, Transcendental Number Theory, Cambridge University Press, page 47:
text: In this chapter, we consider the simplest of all number fields that are different from #92;Q, i.e. quadratic fields. Since n#61;2#61;r#95;1#43;2r#95;2, the signature (r#95;1,r#95;2) of a quadratic field K is either (2,0), in which case we will speak of real quadratic fields, or (0,1), in which case we will speak of imaginary (or complex) quadratic fields. By Proposition 4.8.11 we know that imaginary quadratic fields are those of negative discriminant, and that real quadratic fields are those with positive discriminant.

ref: 1992, James G. Oxley, “Matroid Theory”, in Paperback, Oxford University Press, published 2006, page 215:
text: This extension field of F always contains a root of f in the sense that if K#61;F#91;x#93;#47;(f(x)) then x is a root of f(y) in K#91;y#93;. It then follows that any polynomial will have roots, either in the original field of its coefficients or in some extension field.
ref: 1995, Terence Jackson, From Polynomials to Sums of Squares, Taylor & Francis, page 56:
text: An extension field, by which we mean a bigger field containing F, is automatically a vector space over F. We call it a finite extension if it is a finite vector space. By the degree of a finite extension we mean its dimension as a vector space. One common way of obtaining extension fields is to adjoin an element to F: we say that K#61;F(#92;alpha) if K is the field consisting of all rational expressions formed using #92;alpha and elements of F.

minimal polynomial
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Forms: form: minimal polynomials
Senses: examples: text: Each root of the minimal polynomial of a matrix M is an eigenvalue of M and a root of its characteristic polynomial. (A root of the minimal polynomial has a multiplicity that is less than or equal to the multiplicity of the same root in the characteristic polynomial. Thus the minimal polynomial divides the characteristic polynomial. Also, any root of the characteristic polynomial is also a root of the minimal polynomial, so the two kinds of polynomial have the same roots, only (possibly) differing in their multiplicities.)
text: 1965 [John Wiley], Robert B. Ash, Information Theory, 1990, Dover, page 161,
A procedure for obtaining the minimal polynomial of the matrix Tⁱ, without actually computing the powers of T is indicated in the solution to Problem 5.9.
text: In this section we will show that if #92;#123;A,B,C,D#92;#125; is a controllable and observable realization of #92;mathbfG, then #92;lambda is a pole of #92;mathbfG if and only if #92;lambda is an eigenvalue of A.
