Consider a monic polynomial with integer coefficients: $latex p(x)=x^d + a_1 x^{d-1} + \cdots + a_{d-1}x + a_d$, $latex a_j \in \mathbb{Z}$.The complex roots of such polynomials are called algebraic integers. For example, integers and the roots of integers are algebraic integers. Note that the Galois conjugates of an algebraic integer are also algebraic integers....

The following hints atwhy the quintic equation cannot be solved using radicals. It follows the approach in the first part of Ian Stewart's book "Galois Theory". If time permits, a future post will summarise the approach in V. B. Alekseev's book "Abel's Theorem in Problems and Solutions". Another candidate is Klein's book "Lectures on the...
