In this paper, we construct, for some $2$-groups $G$, explicit Galois extensions $E/\mathbb{Q}(T)$ of group $G$ with $E\cap\overline{\mathbb{Q}}=\mathbb{Q}$. We also provide explicit arithmetic progressions of integers $t_0$ such that the…
We study the number of ramified prime numbers in finite Galois extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ obtained by specializing a finite Galois extension of $\mathbb{Q}(T)$. Our main result is a central limit theorem for this number. We also give some…
We report on a database of field extensions of the rationals, its properties and the methods used to compute it. At the moment the database encompasses roughly 100,000 polynomials generating distinct number fields over the rationals, of…
We prove a large finite field version of the Boston--Markin conjecture on counting Galois extensions of the rational function field with a given Galois group and the smallest possible number of ramified primes. Our proof involves a study of…
We study the ramification groups of finite Galois extensions $L/K$ of a complete discrete valuation field $K$ of equal characteristic $p>0$ with perfect residue field and Galois group isomorphic to the group of unitriangular matrices…
We give a description of the rational representations of the differential Galois group of a Picard-Vessiot extension.
We study normal extensions with Galois group Hol($C_8$) that are unramified over a complex quadratic subfield. The Galois group is either the semi-dihedral group or the modular group of order $16$. We present an explicit construction of…
Let $V$ be a projective limit, with respect to the renormalized norm mappings, of the groups of principal units corresponding to a strictly increasing sequence of finite separable totally and tamely ramified Galois extensions of a local…
The structure of the Galois group of the maximal unramified p-extension of an imaginary quadratic field is restricted in various ways. In this paper we construct a family of finite 3-groups satisfying these restrictions. We prove several…
We investigate unramified extensions of number fields with prescribed solvable Galois group and certain extra conditions. In particular, we are interested in the minimal degree of a number field $K$, Galois over $\mathbb{Q}$, such that $K$…
In this paper we construct number fields ramified at 2 and 3 only, with various moderate-sized non-solvable Galois groups. We construct these fields by specializing three point covers, some from the literature and some new here. The…
Let $K$ be a number field and $K_{ur}$ be the maximal extension of $K$ that is unramified at all places. In a previous article, the first author found three real quadratic fields $K$ such that $Gal(K_{ur}/K)$ is finite and nonabelian simple…
We prove that function fields of varieties of dimension at least two over an algebraic closure of a finite field are determined, modulo purely inseparable extensions, by the quotient by the second term in the lower central series of their…
In this paper we introduce a new method for finding Galois groups by computer. This is particularly effective in the case of Galois groups of p-extensions ramified at finitely many primes but unramified at the primes above p. Such Galois…
In this ongoing work, we extend to a class of well-behaved pre-special hyperfields the work of J. Min\'a\v c and Spira (\cite{minac1996witt}) that describes a (pro-2)-group of a field extension that encodes the quadratic form theory of a…
Counting number fields with prescribed Galois group is an enduring challenge in arithmetic statistics. Using the determinant method, we provide an upper bound for even groups, which is new in some cases.
For a number field $F$ and a prime number $p$, the $\mathbb{Z}_p$-torsion module of the Galois group of the maximal abelian pro-$p$ extension of $F$ unramified outside $p$ over $F$, denoted as $\mathcal{T}_p(F)$, is an important subject in…
A major open problem in current Galois theory is to characterize those profinite groups which appear as absolute Galois groups of various fields. Obtaining detailed knowledge of the structure of quotients and subgroup filtrations of Galois…
We study the arithmetic of division fields of semistable abelian varieties A over the rationals. The Galois group of the 2-division field of A is analyzed when the conductor is odd and squarefree. The irreducible semistable mod 2…
For a number field $K$, we consider $K^{\rm ta}$ the maximal tamely ramified algebraic extension of~$K$, and its Galois group $G^{\rm ta}_K= Gal(K^{ta}/K)$. Choose a prime $p$ such that $\mu_p \not \subset K$. Our guiding aim is to…
