Algebra Notes
... Now imagine you’re trying to find all the constructible numbers. You already know that every rational number is constructible, so by the above claim, every point whose coordinates are rational. To find more constructible points, you try to find a way to construct new points with non-rational coordin ...

... let ! : k[T ] → k be the evaluation map at the identity element of Ga , i.e. !(T ) = 0. Then, µ∗ , ! and i∗ give the comultiplication, counit and antipode making the algebra k[T ] into a commutative Hopf algebra. (Big aside: definition of Hopf algebra if you’ve never seen it before. A coalgebra is a ...

We then examined the products of squares with square free numbers, up to the given value of the norm, to find duplicates.)

Galois Groups and Fundamental Groups
... Notice that the universal cover is given by the exponential map from C to C \ {0}, and we do not consider it, for we would like to restrict to polynomial maps (as these give algebraic field extensions). Another way to see why the universal covering map cannot be given by polynomials is that a polyno ...

Introduction to abstract algebra: definitions, examples, and exercises
... Definition 9. A commutative ring R is a ring for which the multiplication · is commutative: ab = ba for all a, b ∈ R. Note that, since addition is always commutative, when we say the ring is commutative, it is clear commutativity is applying to the multiplication rather than the addition. Definitio ...

Normal Subgroups The following definition applies. Definition B.2: A

(See Example A.10.) Let H be the subset of G consisting of matrices whose upper-right entry is zero; that ...
