Question about constructing fields












1












$begingroup$



Find all the monic irreducible polynomials in $F_5[x]$ of degree two (aside
from $x^2-2$ and $x^2-3$, there are eight of them) Adjoining a root u of
these polynomials to $F_5$, construct eight fields $F_5(u)$ of $25$ elements.
Prove that each of these fields is isomorphic to $F_5(sqrt 2)^times$




Apart from $x^2-2$ and $x^2-3$, I've found that there are $8$ monic irreducible polynomials in $F_5[x]$, which are:
$x^2+x+1,,, x^2+x+2,,, x^2+2x+3,,, x^2+2x+4,,, x^2+3x+3,,, x^2+3x+4,,, x^2+4x+1,,, x^2+4x+2$



For example for the polynomial $x^2+x+1$ we have
$F_5[u]=F_5[x]/x^2+x+1$ where we identify $u$ with the image of $x $ in $F_5[u]$



Now, how to construct such a field of $25$ elements and show that this field is isomorphic to $F_5(sqrt 2)^times$?

    All fields of the same finite cardinality are isomorphic. Or are you trying to construct an explicit isomorphism?

For example, let's see that there is a root of $x^2 + x + 1$ in $F_5[sqrt{2}]$.
If $alpha^2 = 2$ and $beta = x alpha + y$ we have
$$beta^2 + beta + 1 = (2 x^2 + y^2 + y + 1) + (2 x y + x)alpha = 0$$ if $x=y=2$. So we get an isomorphism from $F_5[x]/(x^2+x+1)$ into $F_5[sqrt{2}]$. Since the cardinalities are equal it's also onto.
