In mathematics, and more specifically in field theory, a radical extension of a field K is a field extension built as a tower of intermediate field extensions, each one generated by adjoining an nth root of some element already present in the previous field in the tower.

Is Kind Of Object
Entity-backed identity for the object-kind enum value this mathematical object already carries, resolved to a mathematics concept by an explicit value-to-entity map (phase 3 bucket conversion, docs\design_entity_backed_browse_buckets_20260928.md). The object-kind fact itself stays on the object unchanged.
