Another formulation depends on the comparison of Galois representations attached on the one hand to elliptic curves, and on the other hand to modular forms.
At around the same time, nineteen officers of Galois' former unit were arrested and charged with conspiracy to overthrow the government.
As is the case for Galois groups, the real interest lies often in refining a correspondence to a duality (i.e. antitone order isomorphism).
A pair of adjoint functors between two partially ordered sets is called a Galois connection (or, if it is contravariant, an antitone Galois connection).
A couple of days later, Galois made his second and last attempt to enter the Polytechnique, and failed yet again.
Any Galois connection gives rise to closure operators and to inverse order-preserving bijections between the corresponding closed elements.
