Algebraic Closure

In this file we construct the algebraic closure of a field

Main Definitions

• AlgebraicClosure k is an algebraic closure of k (in the same universe). It is constructed by taking the polynomial ring generated by indeterminates x_f corresponding to monic irreducible polynomials f with coefficients in k, and quotienting out by a maximal ideal containing every f(x_f), and then repeating this step countably many times. See Exercise 1.13 in Atiyah--Macdonald.
