Jonathan will give an additional tutorial for your questions on Monday, 5th of March, 11.30 in the room 1C-01. You may hand in your questions in advance by sending him (or your teaching assistant) an e-mail.
We will first discuss some group theoretic notions and afterwards turn to Galois theory and its most important applications. We will also discuss valuations of fields and Dedekind domains.

If there are mistakes in any sheet or solution please contact me.
Corrected sheets are returned in the tutorial or in problem class. Afterwards I will put them in the box next to room 4A-05 (Allianzgebäude). The box is labeled 'Einführung in Algebra und Zahlentheorie'.
Examination
As announced in the lectures, there will be oral examinations.
