Main themes Galois theory: field extensions and their automorphisms; translation of field extensions properties in terms of the associated groups and applications to some classical problems (solvability by radicals, ruler and compass constructions).Group representations: character of a linear representation; group algebras and induced representations.
Aims After this course, students should be able to use the methods of abstract algebra to analyse situations with a high degree of symmetry and those where the rationality domain plays an important role, such as questions of solvability by radicals, and ruler and compass constructions. A special emphasis will be laid on techniques which use the representation of symmetry groups as groups of vector space transformations.
