Advanced Algebra

III. The Objectives and Requirements of the Course(Time New Rome 12 points, total words: about 200 words)

The aim of this course is to introduce the basic concepts of groups, rings and fields to the students. Meanwhile, field extensions and Galois theory will also be important topics in this course. Through studying the course, the students are required to be familiar with the theories of groups, rings and field, and to have a deep understanding on field extensions and Galois theory. They need to be prepared for potential researches in modern algebra.

IV. The Content of the Course(Time New Rome, 12 points, bold font, 1000-2000 words)

Description:Other course should reflect the content and cases of “Courses for Ideological and Political education”, besides the Course for Ideological and Political Education.

Chapter 1 Introduction (6 class hours)

Introduction to concepts such as maps, algebraic operations, homomorphisms, isomorphisms, classifications of sets and equivalence relations

Chapter 2 Group theory (14 class hours)

Introduction to the definitions of groups, group homomorphisms, permutation groups, cyclic groups, subgroups, cosets, normal subgroups and quotient groups;

Introduction to the group action on sets, Sylow theorem and the structure of finitely generated Abelian groups

Chapter 3 Ring and fields (8 class hours)

Introduction to the basic concepts of rings and fields, integral domains, subrings, ring homomorphisms, polynomial rings, ideals, quotient rings and unique factorization domains.

Chapter 4 Galois theory (12 class hours)

Introduction to field extension, split field of polynomials, finite fields and Galois extension theorems.

Courses for Ideological and Political education: Inspire the students with Galois’ patriotism, and his spirit in the harsh process in building up group theory. Reinforce the students’ pride as being Chinese through introducing the ancient achievements in our country.
