Basic Algebraic Structures and Elementary Number Theory
In this preliminary chapter, we lay the algebraic foundations which we believe are necessary to understand the theory of finite fields and their applications. Although most of this chapter is certainly covered by many text books on Algebra, we decided to

Preface
The idea of writing a book Topics in Galois Fields originated a long time ago, maybe in 1999, when the Fifth International Conference on Finite Fields and Applications was hosted by our home university in Augsburg, Germany. Although we could draw on our two previous monographs, Finite Fields – Structure and Arithmetics [211] by Dieter Jungnickel and Finite Fields – Normal Bases and Completely Free Elements [161] by Dirk Hachenberger, this proved to be a decidedly long-term project, which of course had to do with numerous other duties that had to be fulfilled. We are therefore very grateful to our publ
