Hey! :o

Let $E/F$ be a Galois extension. I want to show the following:
  1. $F\leq K\leq E \Rightarrow \mathcal{F}(\mathcal{G}(E/K))\geq K$
  2. $H\leq \mathcal{G}(E/F)\Rightarrow \mathcal{G}(E/\mathcal{F}(H))\geq H$

Since $E/F$ is a Galois extension, we have that the extension is normal and separable.

Could you give me some hints how we could show these statements? (Wondering)

Both statements follow easily from definitions.

(1). Let $x\in K$ be arbitrary. We will show that $x$ is in the fixed field of $\mathcal G(E:K)$. Pick $\sigma\in \mathcal G(E:K)$. Then $\sigma$ fixes $K$ point wise. Therefore $\sigma(x) = x$ and we have $x\in \mathcal F(\mathcal G(E:K))$.

(2). Let $h\in H$. Then $h$ fixes each element in $\mathcal F(H)$ (just by definition). Thus $h\in \mathcal G(E:\mathcal F(H))$ and we are done.
 
I understand! (Nerd) I want to show the following statements:
  • $F\leq K_1\leq K_2\leq E\Rightarrow \mathcal{G}(E/K_1)\geq \mathcal{G}(E/K_2)$
  • $H_1\leq H_2\leq \mathcal{G}(E/F)\Rightarrow \mathcal{F}(H_1)\geq \mathcal{F}(H_2)$

For the first one I have done the following:
Let $\sigma \in \mathcal{G}(E/K_2)$ then $\sigma (k_2)=k_2,\forall k_2\in K_2$. Since $K_1\leq K_2$ we have that this is true for all $k_1\in K_1$, so $\sigma (k_1)=k_1,\forall k_1\in K_1$, therefore, $\sigma \in \mathcal{G}(E/K_1)$.

For the second one I have done the following:
Let $f\in \mathcal{F}(H_2)$ then $\sigma (f)=f,\forall \sigma \in H_2$. Since $H_1\leq H_2$ , we get that $\sigma (f)=f \forall \sigma \in H_1$ too, and so $f\in F(H_1)$.

Is everything correct? Could I improve something? (Wondering)

This is fine.
 
Thank you very much! (Happy)
 
I asked online questions about Proposition 2.1.1: The answer I got is the following: I have some questions about the answer I got. When the person answering says: ##1.## Is the map ##\mathfrak{q}\mapsto \mathfrak{q} A _\mathfrak{p}## from ##A\setminus \mathfrak{p}\to A_\mathfrak{p}##? But I don't understand what the author meant for the rest of the sentence in mathematical notation: ##2.## In the next statement where the author says: How is ##A\to...
The following are taken from the two sources, 1) from this online page and the book An Introduction to Module Theory by: Ibrahim Assem, Flavio U. Coelho. In the Abelian Categories chapter in the module theory text on page 157, right after presenting IV.2.21 Definition, the authors states "Image and coimage may or may not exist, but if they do, then they are unique up to isomorphism (because so are kernels and cokernels). Also in the reference url page above, the authors present two...
When decomposing a representation ##\rho## of a finite group ##G## into irreducible representations, we can find the number of times the representation contains a particular irrep ##\rho_0## through the character inner product $$ \langle \chi, \chi_0\rangle = \frac{1}{|G|} \sum_{g\in G} \chi(g) \chi_0(g)^*$$ where ##\chi## and ##\chi_0## are the characters of ##\rho## and ##\rho_0##, respectively. Since all group elements in the same conjugacy class have the same characters, this may be...
