We defined maps
and
between subfields of a field
and subgroups of
. We proved properties of the maps. In particular, we proved that the maps define inclusion an reversing correspondence between subfields of
of the form
for some subgroup
and the subgroups of
of the form
for some subfield of
. We proved the Fundamental Theorem of Galois Theory and saw examples.
