Yes. The Reed Solomon algorithm is based on Galois fields. They are used extensively wherever you may have high rates of data loss that can span large gaps of a data stream.
That was not his contribution to mathematics. Galois discovered that symmetry plays an important role in the universe and set to work on symmetries, eventually creating Group Theory, a novel way to do math. A century after his death, it was found that elementary particles (subatomic particles) originate from spontaneous broken symmetry and thus, many unknown particles were found using Galois Theory. Today, there's an important scientific magazine named Symmetry.

Not very much I'd presume, his personality is his mathematics. Being so different and out there led to the same in his maths. This is true for many other mathematicians as well as composers. Their 'odd' personality creates beautiful maths.
He would have been a mathematician of the standards of Newton, Euler or Gauss IF HE DID NOT FIGHT A FKING DUEL! WHYYYYYYYYY????? And Mozart would have been such a composer that Beethoven and Bach would be irrelevant
Careful: by "no general formula", you mean "no formula involving finite algebraic operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and root extraction". For example, Bernd Sturmfels has given a general formula in power series/infinite series for any polynomial.
Yeah, you're right. She probably didn't say that because it would be easily understood to be this and also it would be unnecessarily convoluted to explain that it is 'no solution by radicals', (i.e. what you said)
Actually , Abel was the one that proved the insolvability of the 5th grade equation in it's general form. Galois gave the condition when a specific 5th grade equation is solvable with radicals. This paper started the group theory as we know it nowadays.
Hi Socratica. I noticed that around 1:29, you list out the cubic formula and quadratic formula. Could you please post a link that shows both in full? I would really appreciate it if you post the link.
You didn't choose to waste 19 years of your life, alot of it can be blamed on the uninspired society we find ourselves in, there is plenty of time to remedy that, after all you aren't planning to have any duels any time soon right?
I thought the same at 24: Napoleon and Alexander and most mathematicians or rock stars had reached success and glory by that age. Now I'm 58 and, although I haven't performed, I understood that the idea of life having some worth is aburd and irrational. Just don't waste time by postponing your projects. Life is 'now', neither in the past or future. Àd don't expect recognition by others: do it for yourself, not for 'worth'. 😽
Late to the party ^^ But for people interested in the life of Galois and the transformation mathematics underwent at the beginning of the 19th century I can recommend the book "Duel at dawn" by Amir Alexander
Ms. Castro has show her skill not only as a Presenter of Abstract Algebra but as a Presenter of Biographies as well. True, I would have liked to have seen some detail of the mysterious Stephanie who was related to the demise of Galois, but this is still a good solid presentation. I am also finding that Liliana de Castro is also an interesting person who had a past as an Actress. My suspicion is that she was getting Math and History Degrees between her Acting Gigs and that she is probably going for a Doctorate in something like Instructional Technology. Hence my request for her Biography. PS: I like to see her as a Co-Presenter with Martin Poliakof of Periodic Table of Videos.
It's really hard to be at the forefront of mathematics. Most people are about 2,000 years behind. I have a bachelor's and I think I'm still about 200 years behind.

Actually he didn't. He knew he was going to die. That's why in the night before the duel, he spent all of his energy writing down his ideas. He unfortunately fell in love with a married woman, and her husband found out. Well...
@@N0Xa880iUL the details of the duel and its causes are unknown, it wasn't punishment though, he could chose not to duel, likely his short temper flared and killed him
Along with Abel, a once in 500 years mathematical genius. Like Mozart or Schubert, who also died relatively young, one wonders what things could have been composed or problems solved if they lived 20 or even only 10 years longer.
You know, a lot of guys only find a women's physical appearance attractive. But this women shows how beautiful a person can be, when the mind and face match in beauty. The world would be so much better, if we held intelligence higher than looks. Physical beauty fades, but if you find an interesting and intelligent partner, your life will be filled with knowledge. And the beauty of learning never fades with time, it only grows stronger!
You can train 3 years for a MATH exam and score 20 out of 20 or you can train 1 day be rejected does it mean the one who scored 20 is smarter from the one who trained 1 day? Of course not to put equal measure you must give equal conditions and time that's why Galois is the goat) because he hadn't time to train enough for French Politecnico from where was rejected)
Alexander Hamilton, the guy on the $10 bill and my favorite Founding Father was another brilliant genius who died in a duel with the arrogant Aaron Burr. These guys often have little patience with those less intelligent as was the case with Burr. Hamilton’s eldest son had already died in a duel…
His IQ is estimated 170 now we know that IQ 170 could enter any prestigious university that He likes even Prinston if you give Him little time to prepare)
Nowadays, 6-7yrs old kids having Gf and bf whereas this menace came up with a theory which get the mathematicians depressed ☠☠☠☠☠☠❗❗ Lord for a reason🗿🗿🗿🗿🗿
Not so great thinker, if he was trying to steal another man's wife, and getting killed in the process, while being young, extremely talented and a woman about his age would have been no problem to get married too, having a life free of much problems, because of his talent and contributions to the Field of Mathematics; hence thinker doesn't mean wiser, small but important difference, he didn't learn and that cost him his life
His math discoveries allowed us to play CDs, create QR codes, and see perfect images from outer space.
