Extensive categories, commutative semirings and Galois theory

We describe the Galois theory of commutative semirings as a Boolean Galois theory in the sense of Carboni and Janelidze. Such a Galois structure then naturally suggests an extension to commutative semirings of the classical theory of quadratic equations over commutative rings. We show, however, that...
