If a field has the property that, if the sets A_1, ..., A_n, ... belong to it, then so do the sets A_1+...+A_n+... and A_1...A_n..., then the field is called a Borel field ...

A field which is complete with respect to a discrete valuation is called a local field if its field of residue classes is finite. The Hasse principle is one of the chief ...

The field of rationals is the set of rational numbers, which form a field. This field is commonly denoted Q (doublestruck Q).

The field of reals is the set of real numbers, which form a field. This field is commonly denoted R (doublestruck R).

A field K is said to be an extension field (or field extension, or extension), denoted K/F, of a field F if F is a subfield of K. For example, the complex numbers are an ...
