Abstract

In this paper I generalize the notion of a polynomial over an ordered field to that of a naked polynomial over a non-Archimedean ordered field, subsequently showing that the notion of a naked polynomial ring forms an Euclidean domain. This canonically generalizes the methods of Galois theory of fields and polynomial rings to a transfinite Galois theory of non-Archimedean ordered fields and naked polynomial rings, lifting the processes of splitting and algebraic closure to non-Archimedean ordered fields.
