Abstract

Given a number field FF, a finite group GG and an indeterminate TT, {\it{a GG-parametric extension over FF}} is a finite Galois extension E/F(T)E/F(T) with Galois group GG and E/FE/F regular that has all the Galois extensions of FF with Galois group GG among its specializations. We are mainly interested in producing non-GG-parametric extensions, which relates to classical questions in inverse Galois theory like the Beckmann-Black problem. Building on a strategy developed in previous papers, we show that there exists at least one non-GG-parametric extension over FF for a given non-trivial finite group GG and a given number field FF under the sole necessary condition that GG occurs as the Galois group of a Galois extension E/F(T)E/F(T) with E/FE/F regular.
