I heard you have a PhD in math. Can you tell me about infinite galois theory? |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Yeah, sure. It's a theory that finds a necessary and sufficient condition for a polynomial to be solvable by radicals. |

MAN, I said INFINITE galois theory. I was reading about grisha perelman today, the hermit who proved poincare's conjecture, and feeling very excited. PS mostowski collapse is your friend |

My dad knew mostowski, which is pretty exciting. Also, I don't know much topology, but the bits I know I find very cute; I'll do more when I hit grad school (I'm a CS major though) |

In my defense I'd like to make it clear I didn't get the article from slashdot. god damnit, they sully everything. |

In my defense I'd like to make it clear I have no clue on maths. |

That's fine. you should learn, though. Everyone should. |
