by theorems 1(Euler’s Formula) we have the following
Theorem 3.4. Normal extensions remain normal under lifting. If K ⊃ E ⊃ k and K is normal over k, then K is normal over E. If K1, K2 are normal over k and are contained in some field L, then K1K2 is normal over k, and so is K1 ∩ K2.
我们首先来回忆一下扩张的定义
Proof. For our first assertion, let K be normal over k, let F be any extension of k, and assume K, F are contained in some bigger field. Let σ be an embedding of KF over F (in Fa ). Then σ induces the identity on F, hence on k, and by hypothesis its restriction to K maps K into itself. We get (KF)σ = KσFσ = KF whence KF is normal over F.
Assume that K ⊃ E ⊃ k and that K is normal over k. Let σ be an embedding of K over E. Then σ is also an embedding of K over k, and our assertion follows by definition.
Finally, if K1, K2 are normal over k, then for any embedding σ of K1K2 over k we have σ(K1K2) = σ(K1)σ(K2) and our assertion again follows from the hypothesis. The assertion concerning the intersection is true because σ(K1∩K2) = σ(K1) ∩ σ(K2).
We observe that if K is a finitely generated normal extension of k, say K = k(α1,…,αn) and p1, …, pn are the respective irreducible polynomials of α1, …, αn over k then K is already the splitting field of the finite family p1, …, pn. We shall investigate later when K is the splitting field of a single irreducible polynomial.
