For instance, if <math>K=\mathbb Q</math> and <math>P(X)=X^3-2</math> then <math>\mathbb Q[\sqrt[3]2]</math> is a rupture field for <math>P(X)</math>.
 
The notion is interesting mainly if <math>P(X)</math> is [[irreducible polynomial|irreducible]] over <math>K</math>. In that case, all rupture fields of <math>P(X)</math> over <math>K</math> are isomorphic, non canonically, to <math>K_P=K[X]/(P(X))</math>: if <math>L=K[a]</math> where <math>a</math> is a root of <math>P(X)</math>, then the [[ring homomorphism]] <math>f</math> defined by <math>f(k)=k</math> for all <math>k\in K</math> and <math>f(X\mod P)=a</math> is an [[isomorphism]]. Also, in this case the degree of the extension equals the degree of <math>P</math>.
 
The rupture field of a [[polynomial]] does not necessarily contain all the roots of that [[polynomial]]: in the above example the field <math>\mathbb Q[\sqrt[3]2]</math> does not contain the other two (complex) roots of <math>P(X)</math> (namely <math>\omega\sqrt[3]2</math> and <math>\omega^2\sqrt[3]2</math> where <math>\omega</math> is a primitive third root of unity). For a field containing all the roots of a [[polynomial]], see the [[splitting field]].
 
==Examples==
The rupture field of <math>X^2+1</math> over <math>\mathbb R</math> is <math>\mathbb C</math>. It is also its [[splitting field]].
 
The rupture field of <math>X^2+1</math> over <math>\mathbb F_3</math> is <math>\mathbb F_9</math> since there is no element of <math>\mathbb F_3</math> with square equal to <math>-1</math> (and all quadratic [[field extension|extensions]] of <math>\mathbb F_3</math> are isomorphic to <math>\mathbb F_9</math>).
