Paper 3, Section II, F
Let be of degree , with no repeated roots, and let be a splitting field for .
(i) Show that is irreducible if and only if for any there is such that .
(ii) Explain how to define an injective homomorphism . Find an example in which the image of is the subgroup of generated by (2 3). Find another example in which is an isomorphism onto .
(iii) Let and assume is irreducible. Find a chain of subgroups of that shows it is a solvable group. [You may quote without proof any theorems from the course, provided you state them clearly.]
