properties of -conjugates
Lemma. Let be algebraic numbers belonging to the number field
of degree (http://planetmath.org/NumberField) and their http://planetmath.org/node/12046-conjugates
. If is a polynomial
with rational coefficients and if
then also
for each . In the special case of two elements and of one may infer the formulae

The lemma implies easily the following theorems.
Theorem 1. All conjugate fields of are isomorphic.
Theorem 2. The norm and the trace in the field satisfy
