Algebraic number field

In mathematics, an algebraic number field F is a finite, field extension of the field of rational numbers Q. Thus F is a field that contains Q and has finite Hamel dimension, when considered as a vector space over Q....

Global field

In mathematics, the term global field refers to either of the following:*a algebraic number field, i.e., a algebraic extension of Q or*the function field of an algebraic curve over a finite field, i.e., a finitely generated field of characteristic p>0 of transcendence degree 1....

Local field

In mathematics, a local field is a special type of Field that is a locally compact topological field with respect to a Discrete space.Given such a field, an Absolute value can be defined on it....
