Title: Hopf-Galois Structures on Separable Field Extensions


Abstract: Hopf-Galois theory is a generalization of the classical Galois 
theory. The concept of Hopf-Galois extension is due to Chase and 
Sweedler [1]. They introduced it in 1969 to study purely inseparable 
extensions of fields and ramified extensions of rings. Then, in 1987, 
Greither and Pareigis [2] developed Hopf-Galois theory for separable 
field extensions. In the first part of this talk, we will present 
Hopf-Galois structures of separable field extensions by going from well 
known results within Galois theory. Then we will focus on Hopf-Galois 
structures which are minimal. All along the talk, we will give detailed 
examples.
