Normal closures #
Main definitions #
Given field extensions K/F
and L/F
, the predicate IsNormalClosure F K L
says that the
minimal polynomial of every element of K
over F
splits in L
, and that L
is generated
by the roots of such minimal polynomials. These conditions uniquely characterize L/F
up to
F
-algebra isomorphisms (IsNormalClosure.equiv
).
The explicit construction normalClosure F K L
of a field extension K/F
inside another
field extension L/F
is the smallest intermediate field of L/F
that contains the image
of every F
-algebra embedding K →ₐ[F] L
. It satisfies the IsNormalClosure
predicate
if L/F
satisfies the abovementioned splitting condition, in particular if L/K/F
form
a tower and L/F
is normal.
L/F
is a normal closure of K/F
if the minimal polynomial of every element of K
over F
splits in L
, and L
is generated by roots of such minimal polynomials over F
.
(Since the minimal polynomial of a transcendental element is 0,
the normal closure of K/F
is the same as the normal closure over F
of the algebraic closure of F
in K
.)

The normal closure of K/F

Equations
- normalClosure F K L = ⨆ (f : K →ₐ[F] L), AlgHom.fieldRange f
Instances For
If K/F
is algebraic, the "generated by roots" condition in IsNormalClosure can be replaced
by "generated by images of embeddings".
normalClosure F K L
is a valid normal closure if K/F
is algebraic
and all minimal polynomials of K/F
splits in L/F
.
A normal closure of K/F
embeds into any L/F
where the minimal polynomials of K/F
splits.

splits is maximal with respect
to F
-embeddings of K
, in the sense that K →ₐ[F] L
achieves maximal cardinality.
We construct an explicit injective function from an arbitrary K →ₐ[F] L'
into K →ₐ[F] L
,
using an embedding of normalClosure F K L'
into L
.
