\(N\) – real fields

A field F is n-real if -1 is not the sum of n squares in F. It is shown that a field F is m-real if and only if rank ( \(AA^t\) ) = rank (A) for every n × m matrix A with entries from F. An n-real field F is n-real closed if every proper algebraic extension of F is not n-real. It is shown that if a...

description A field F is n-real if -1 is not the sum of n squares in F. It is shown that a field F is m-real if and only if rank ( \(AA^t\) ) = rank (A) for every n × m matrix A with entries from F. An n-real field F is n-real closed if every proper algebraic extension of F is not n-real. It is shown that if a 3-real field F is 2-real closed, then F is a real closed field. For F a quadratic extension of the field of rational numbers, the greatest integer n such that F is n-real is determined.
