A-3.3 Theorems

⟨Theorem A-3.3⟩ Field Theorems

1.
Size of Finite Field: A finite field is called Galois field and always has pn elements (where p is a prime and n is a positive integer).
2.
Isomorphic Fields: Any two finite fields, 𝔽1 and 𝔽2 with the same number of elements are isomorphic (i.e., there exists a bi-jective one-to-one mapping function f : 𝔽1 β†’ 𝔽2 and the algebraic operations (+,β‹…) preserve correctness among newly mapped elements). In other words, there exists a mapping function f : 𝔽1 β†’ 𝔽2 comprised of the field operators (+, β‹…). For such an isomorphic function f, for any a,b ∈ 𝔽1, f(a + b) = f(a) + f(b) and f(a β‹…b) = f(a) β‹…f(b)
