Primitive Element (field Theory)
In field theory (mathematics), field theory, a simple extension is a field extension that is generated by the adjunction (field theory), adjunction of a single element, called a ''primitive element''. Simple extensions are well understood and can be completely classified. The primitive element theorem provides a characterization of the finite extension, finite simple extensions. Definition A field extension is called a simple extension if there exists an element in ''L'' with :L = K(\theta). This means that every element of can be expressed as a rational fraction in , with coefficients in ; that is, it is produced from and elements of by the field operations +, −, •, / . Equivalently, is the smallest field that contains both ' and . There are two different kinds of simple extensions (see below): # The element may be transcendental element, transcendental over , which means that it is not a zero of a function, root of any polynomial with coefficients in .

In the arts of the Western world, Primitivism is a mode of Idealization and devaluation, aesthetic idealization that means to recreate the experience of ''the primitive'' time, place, and person, either by emulation or by re-creation. In Western philosophy, Primitivism proposes that the people of a Urgesellschaft, primitive society possess a morality and an ethics that are superior to the urban value system of civilized people. In European art, the aesthetics of primitivism included techniques, motifs, and styles copied from the arts of Asian, African, and Australasia, Australasian peoples perceived as primitive in relation to the urban civilization of Western Europe. In that light, the painter Paul Gauguin's inclusion of Tahiti, Tahitian imagery to his oil paintings was a characteristic borrowing of technique, motif, and style that was important for the development of Modern art (1860s–1970s) in the late 19th century. As a genre of Western art, Primitivism reproduced and perpet ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
