Abstract

Given two GG-Galois extensions of Q\mathbb Q, is there an extension of Q(t)\mathbb Q(t) that specializes to both? The equivalence relation on GG-Galois extension of Q\mathbb Q, induced by the above question, is called RR-equivalence. The number of RR-equivlance classes indicates how many rational spaces are required in order to parametrize all GG-Galois extensions of Q\mathbb Q. We determine the RR-equivalence classes for basic families of groups GG, and consequently obtain parametrizations of the GG-Galois extensions of Q\mathbb Q in the absence of a generic extension for GG.
