Field
A field is a set F with two binary operations โŠ•,โŠ— such that for any a,b,cโˆˆF we have
  1. โŠ•,โŠ— are both associative and commutative
  2. Identities: There exist identity elements 0Fโ‰ 1FโˆˆF for โŠ• and โŠ— respectively
  3. Additive Inverses: There exists an โˆ’aโˆˆF such that aโŠ•โˆ’a=0F
  4. Multiplicative Inverses: If aโ‰ 0 there exists an aโˆ’1โˆˆF such that aโŠ—aโˆ’1=1F
  5. Distributivity: โŠ— distributes into โŠ•
The Complex Numbers Form a Field
The complex numbers with their standard addition and multiplication form a field
A Field is a Crone
Suppose that F is a field, then F is a crone
A Crone with Multiplicative Inverses is a Field
Suppose that (R,โŠ•,โŠ—) is a non-zero crone then if for every aโ‰ 0, there is an aโŠ—aโˆ’1=1R then R is a field
Field Implies Domain
Suppose that F is a field, then F is a domain
Finite Extension of the Rationals
We define the set for any xโˆˆR as Q(x):={a+bx:a,bโˆˆQ}โŠ†R
Multiplicative Inverse in a Finite Extension of the Rationals
Suppose that p is prime and that x+ypโˆˆQ(p), such that x+ypโ‰ 0, then it's multiplicative inverse can be written as a+bp for some a,bโˆˆQ
The Integers mod a Prime Form a Field
Z/Zn is a field if and only if n is prime.
