This lecture is part of an online graduate course on Galois theory.
We discuss two forms of Hilbert's theorem 90: the original version for cyclic extensions, and Noether's more general version for arbitrary finite Galois extensions. The proofs use a lemma of Artin about the linear independence of group characters.
