The (relative) separable closure of F
in E
, or called maximal separable subextension
of E / F
, is defined to be the intermediate field of E / F
consisting of all separable
elements. The previous results prove that these elements are closed under field operations.

Instances For

if and only if
it is a separable element.

is equal to separableClosure F E
.
If i
is an F
-algebra homomorphism from E
to K
, then the image of separableClosure F E
under the map i
is contained in separableClosure F K
.
If K / E / F
is a field extension tower, such that K / E
has no non-trivial separable
subextensions (when K / E
is algebraic, this means that it is purely inseparable),
then the image of separableClosure F E
in K
is equal to separableClosure F K
.
If i
is an F
-algebra isomorphism of E
and K
, then the image of separableClosure F E
under the map i
is equal to separableClosure F K
.
If E
and K
are isomorphic as F
-algebras, then separableClosure F E
and
separableClosure F K
are also isomorphic as F
-algebras.
