(algebra, field theory) A field extension L/K which is algebraic over K (i.e., is such that every element of L is a root of some (nonzero) polynomial with coefficients in K).

(algebra, field theory, algebraic geometry) Any pair of fields, denoted L/K, such that K is a subfield of L.

(algebra, Galois theory) An algebraic extension that is both a normal and a separable extension; equivalently, an algebraic extension E/F such that the fixed field of its automorphism group (Galois group) Aut(E/F) is the base field F.

(algebra, field theory) A field L which contains a subfield K, called the base field, from which it is generated by adjoining extra elements.

(algebra) A finite, algebraic extension of some field such that if it contains any root of any irreducible polynomial over that base field then it contains all of the roots of that polynomial.
