There is an important theorem states:
$E/F/K$ are a chain of extensions. And $E/K$ and $F/K$ are normal. Then we have $textGal(E/F)trianglelefteq textGal(E/K)$ and $textGal(F/K)congtextGal(E/K)/textGal(E/F)$.



For the normality of subgroups we need $F/K$ is normal. For the isomorphism. Is is true seems that we just need $E/F$ to be normal? Of course, $E/K$ normal implies that. Because we just need to extend $F$ to $E$ (we can skip $K$). Just need a polynomial in $F[X]$ splits in $E$.



Of course, $E/K$ normal implies $E/F$ normal and the former is stronger the latter in general. Is there any reason to state a weaker theorem?

  • If the extensions aren't normal then what is $mathrmGal(E/F)$, etc.? Is this just alternative notation for $mathrmAut(E/F)$?

  • Can you explain what happens when $K=mathbbQ$, $F=mathbbQ(sqrt2)$, and $E=mathbbQ(sqrt[4]2)$?
