Abstract: Let $K$ be a finite extension of a characteristic zero field $F$. We say that the pair of $nimesn$ matrices $(A,B)$ over $F$ represents $K$ if $KcongF[A]/<B>$ where $F[A]$ denotes the smallest subalgebra of $M_n(F)$ containing $A$ and $<B>$ is an ideal in $F[A]$ generated by $B$. In particular, $A$ is said to represent the field $K$ if there exists an irreducible polynomial $q(x)inF[x]$ which divides the minimal polynomial of $A$ and $KcongF[A]/<q(A)>$. In this paper, we identify the smallest circulant-matrix representation for any subfield of a cyclotomic field. Furthermore, if $p$ is any prime and $K$ is a subfield of the $p$-th cyclotomic field, then we obtain a zero-one circulant matrix $A$ of size $pimesp$ such that $(A,J)$ represents $K$, where $J$ is the matrix with all entries 1. In case, the integer $n$ has at most two distinct prime factors, we find the smallest 0-1 companion-matrix that represents the $n$-th cyclotomic field. We also find bounds on the size of such companion matrices when $n$ has more than two prime factors.
