Lecture 8: Finite fields
نویسنده
چکیده
We have learnt about groups, rings, integral domains and fields till now. Fields have the maximum required properties and hence many nice theorems can be proved about them. For instance, in previous lectures we saw that the polynomials with coefficients from fields have unique factorization theorem. One of the important sub case of fields is when they are finite. In this case the fields can be completely characterized up to isomorphism and have lot of applications in computer science. We will cover the characterization and an application in these lecture notes.

متن کاملHow to Use Finite Fields for Problems concerning Infinite Fields
As the title indicates, the purpose of the present lecture is to show how to use finite fields for solving problems on infinite fields. This can be done on two different levels: the elementary one uses only the fact that most algebraic geometry statements involve only finitely many data, hence come from geometry over a finitely generated ring, and the residue fields of such a ring are finite; t...
متن کاملRepresentation Theory , Lecture 0
The aim of this lecture is to recall some standard basic things about the representation theory of finite dimensional algebras and finite groups. First, we recall restriction, induction and coinduction functors. Then we recall the Schur lemma and deduce consequences about the action of the center and the structure of completely reducible representations. Then we explain the structure and repres...
متن کاملCodes from Algebraic Number Fields
INTRODUCTION The geometry of numbers, coding theory, the Riemann hypothesis the list of key words for this lecture can be read äs a partial history of the Stichting Mathematisch Centrum. The lecture itself attempts to reflect the spirit of the SMC by displaying a new connection between these subjects. Using ideas from the geometry of numbers one can construct a class of codes from algebraic num...
