Solubility of general cubic by radicals












0














My task is to use the following two theorems to prove that any cubic is soluble by radicals. We are not allowed to use that $Bbb S_3$ is a soluble group.




Theorem 1: Hilbert's Theorem 90
Let $L:K$ be a finite normal extension with cyclic galois group generated by $tau$. Then $a$$in$L has norm 1 iff $a=frac{b}{tau(b)}$, for some $b in L$.




Here, $N(a)=tau_1(a)...tau_n(a)$, where $tau_i$ are the elements of the Galois Group $G$,corresponding to a finite, normal extension $L:K$.




Theorem 2:
Suppose $L:K$ is a finite normal extension with cyclic Galois Group of prime order generated by $tau$. If K has characteristic 0, (or characteristic which is prime to p), and $t^p-1$ splits in K. Then $L=K(a)$, where $a$ is a zero of an irreducible polynomial $t^p-beta$ over K for some $beta in K$.




I am a bit confused, as I am not sure what I am supposed to do.
I start with $Bbb Q$, and then adjoin $omega$, where $omega^3=1$, but is not equal to 1.



Then over $K=Bbb Q(omega)$, we have $N(omega)=1$, so according to Theorem 1, we may write $omega=frac{b}{tau(b)}$.



If I am not mistaken $tau=(123)$, and the Galois Group of the extension $L:K$ is $Bbb A_3$.



According to Ian Stewart's Galois Theory book, $b=omega c+omega tau(omega) tau(c)+ omegatau(omega)tau^2(omega)tau^2(c)=omega c+ omega^2 tau(c) +tau^2(c).$



Then, it follows that $b^3=tau(b^3)$, so $b^3 in <tau>^dagger$.



Now, using theorem 2, since $K$ splits over $t^3-1$, and $L:K$ has cyclic galois group $Bbb A_3$, then $L=K(alpha)$, which is a radical extensions of $Bbb Q$.



I am not sure whether my reasoning is correct. The whole idea is to show that the general cubic, $f(x)$, is soluble by radicals by showing that there exists a field that contains a a splitting field for $f$ such that the extension $L:Bbb Q$ is a radical extension.
