Main results

• IsPurelyInseparable.surjective_algebraMap_of_isSeparable, IsPurelyInseparable.bijective_algebraMap_of_isSeparable, IntermediateField.eq_bot_of_isPurelyInseparable_of_isSeparable: if E / F is both purely inseparable and separable, then algebraMap F E is surjective (hence bijective). In particular, if an intermediate field of E / F is both purely inseparable and separable, then it is equal to F.

• isPurelyInseparable_iff_pow_mem: a field extension E / F of exponential characteristic q is purely inseparable if and only if for every element x of E, there exists a natural number n such that x ^ (q ^ n) is contained in F.

• IsPurelyInseparable.trans: if E / F and K / E are both purely inseparable extensions, then K / F is also purely inseparable.

• isPurelyInseparable_iff_natSepDegree_eq_one: E / F is purely inseparable if and only if for every element x of E, its minimal polynomial has separable degree one.

• isPurelyInseparable_iff_minpoly_eq_X_pow_sub_C: a field extension E / F of exponential characteristic q is purely inseparable if and only if for every element x of E, the minimal polynomial of x over F is of form X ^ (q ^ n) - y for some natural number n and some element y of F.

• isPurelyInseparable_iff_minpoly_eq_X_sub_C_pow: a field extension E / F of exponential characteristic q is purely inseparable if and only if for every element x of E, the minimal polynomial of x over F is of form (X - x) ^ (q ^ n) for some natural number n.

• isPurelyInseparable_iff_finSepDegree_eq_one: an extension is purely inseparable if and only if it has finite separable degree (Field.finSepDegree) one.

• IsPurelyInseparable.normal: a purely inseparable extension is normal.

• separableClosure.isPurelyInseparable: if E / F is algebraic, then E is purely inseparable over the separable closure of F in E.

• separableClosure_le_iff: if E / F is algebraic, then an intermediate field of E / F contains the separable closure of F in E if and only if E is purely inseparable over it.

• eq_separableClosure_iff: if E / F is algebraic, then an intermediate field of E / F is equal to the separable closure of F in E if and only if it is separable over F, and E is purely inseparable over it.

• IsPurelyInseparable.injective_comp_algebraMap: if E / F is purely inseparable, then for any reduced ring L, the map (E →+* L) → (F →+* L) induced by algebraMap F E is injective. In particular, a purely inseparable field extension is an epimorphism in the category of fields.

• IsPurelyInseparable.of_injective_comp_algebraMap: if L is an algebraically closed field containing E, such that the map (E →+* L) → (F →+* L) induced by algebraMap F E is injective, then E / F is purely inseparable. As a corollary, epimorphisms in the category of fields must be purely inseparable extensions.

• Field.finSepDegree_eq: if E / F is algebraic, then the Field.finSepDegree F E is equal to Field.sepDegree F E as a natural number. This means that the cardinality of Field.Emb F E and the degree of (separableClosure F E) / F are both finite or infinite, and when they are finite, they coincide.

• Field.finSepDegree_mul_finInsepDegree: the finite separable degree multiply by the finite inseparable degree is equal to the (finite) field extension degree.
