As I know all arithmetic operations in AES are done over $GF(2^8)$ so I want to know which field generator AES uses? is it 0x11B? and choosing another field generator would it give a different results?

Actually, the choice of irreducible polynomial is unimportant in AES; for any polynomial representation of
