This course provides an introduction to Galois Theory. This theory was developed to answer questions of the following type: How can we find the solution of a polynomial equation f(x) = 0 in one variable? Can you solve it using a specific list of operations, such as the operations of arithmetic together with taking nth roots? ....... Prerequisites: Ability to write and follow mathematical proofs. Some knowledge of abstract algebra, such as the notions of group, field, and ring, as presented in Math 417 or Math 427. The basic notions needed will be reviewed. To request approval, email math-undergrad-director@illinois.edu with subject line Math 428 and include your name, netid, UIN, and abstract algebra/proofs background.
