algebraically independent
adj1
Algebra, Mathematics, Sciences (Of a subset S of the extension field L of a given field extension L / K) whose elements do not satisfy any non-trivial polynomial equation with coefficients in K.
- The singleton set #92;#123;#92;alpha#92;#125; is algebraically independent over K if and only if the element #92;alpha is transcendental over K.
- A subset S#92;subsetL is algebraically independent over K if every element of S is transcendental over K and over each of the extension fields over K generated by the remaining elements of S.

Let 0 ne p∈P. Then p,x_1,…,x_n cannot be algebraically independent over k, so there is a polynomial P(Y,X_,…,X_n) over k such that P(p,x_,…,x_n)=0.
