Definition. Let E be an extension field of the rationals. A vector v = (b 1, …, b n ) in E n is algebraic if each coordinate b i is algebraic over the rationals. A linear transformation T: E n → E n is algebraic if T(v) is an algebraic vector for every algebraic vector v.
Definition. The degree of an algebraic linear transformation T, denoted by deg T, is the minimum of [K:Q] taken over all finite algebraic extensions K of the rationals Q such that T: K n → K n .
