Extension of Splitting Fields over An Arbitrary Field


Splitting field implies Galois extensionWhat does it mean to take the splitting field of $f(x)in F[x]$ over $K$ where $K/F$ is a field extensionCalculating Splitting Field Degree of ExtensionDetermining whether or not an extension is a splitting fieldElementary Field Theory: Extension Field of Degree 2Splitting field of $x^3 - 2$ over $mathbbF_5$Normal field extension implies splitting fieldSplitting fields and their degreesWhat things we have to take care of while finding the degree of field extension, splitting fields for some polynomial?A question on the definition of splitting field

Let $F$ be a field in which $0 neq2$ in $F$, and consider $f=x^4+1$. If $E$ is the splitting field for $f$ over $F$, it turns out that $E$ is a simple extension of $F$. How does one realize this fact? I'm not so sure as to what field element I can adjoin to $F$ to allow $f$ to split into linear factors. Finding the splitting field over something like $mathbbQ$ is straight forward and easy in comparison, but I'm having trouble working with any general field $F$.



Also, if we indeed did have that $0=2$ in our field $F$, then $f=x^4+1=(x+1)^4$, so $F$ is its own splitting field, is this correct reasoning?

    Letting $alpha$ be any root, then $f$ splits as $(x-alpha)(x+alpha)(x-alpha^3)(x+alpha^3)$ in $F[alpha]$.

If $theta$ is a root of $x^4+1$, then so are $theta^k$ for $k=1,3,5,7$, and so $x^4+1$ splits in $F(theta)$.
