numbers. All transcendental extensions are of infinite degree. This in turn implies that all finite extensions are algebraic. The converse is not true however:

The study of algebraic number fields, that is, of algebraic extensions of the field of rational numbers, is the central topic of algebraic number theory

Integral extension Group extension Algebraic extension Ore extension In general, not all subsets of a ring R are rings. Not to be confused with the ring-theoretic

In mathematics, an associative algebra A over a commutative ring (often a field) K is a ring A together with a ring homomorphism from K into the center

In abstract algebra, an algebra extension is the ring-theoretic equivalent of a group extension. Precisely, a ring extension of a ring R by an abelian

abstract algebra, a *-algebra (or involutive algebra; read as "star-algebra") is a mathematical structure consisting of two involutive rings R and A,

In mathematics, a ring is an algebraic structure consisting of a set with two binary operations called addition and multiplication, which obey the same

field extensions can be split into ones of the form E(S) / E (purely transcendental extensions) and algebraic extensions. A field is algebraically closed

element with respect to the multiplication. The ring of real square matrices of order n forms a unital algebra since the identity matrix of order n is the
