Let $p$ be an odd prime number. We study growth patterns associated with finitely ramified Galois groups considered over the various number fields varying in a $\mathbb{Z}_p$-tower. These Galois groups can be considered as non-commutative…
Recent examples of periodic bifurcations in descendant trees of finite p-groups with p in {2,3} are used to show that the possible p-class tower groups G of certain multiquadratic fields K with p-class group of type (2,2,2), resp. (3,3),…
This paper studies infinite class field towers of number fields $K$ that are ramified over $\Q$ only at one finite prime. In particular, we show the existence of such towers for a general family of primes including $p=2$, 3 and 5.
Inspired by the Odlyzko root discriminant and Golod--Shafarevich $p$-group bounds, Martinet (1978) asked whether an imaginary quadratic number field $K/\mathbb{Q}$ must always have an infinite Hilbert $2$-class field tower when the class…
Cyclic number fields of odd prime degree are constructed as ray class fields over the rational number field. They are collected in multiplets sharing a common conductor and discriminant. The algorithms are implemented in Magma and applied…
The $p$-group generation algorithm from computational group theory is used to obtain information about large quotients of the pro-2 group $G = \text{Gal} (k^{nr,2}/k)$ for $k = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ with $d = -445, -1015, -1595, -2379$. In…
This paper gives examples of function fields $K_0$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of $p$ power order ramified only at one finite regular prime over $\mathbb{F}_q(t)$, which admit infinite Hilbert $p$-class field towers. Such a $K_0$ can…
General concepts and strategies are developed for identifying the isomorphism type of the second p-class group \(G=Gal(F_p^2(K) | K)\), that is the Galois group of the second Hilbert p-class field \(F_p^2(K)\), of a number field K, for a…
We give a streamlined and effective proof of Ozaki's theorem that any finite $p$-group $\Gamma$ is the Galois group of the $p$-Hilbert class field tower of some number field $\rm F$. Our work is inspired by Ozaki's and applies in broader…
Let k be a number field, p$\ge$2 a prime and S a set of tame or wild finite places of k. We call K/k a totally S-ramified cyclic p-tower if Gal(K/k)=Z/p^NZ and if S non-empty is totally ramified. Using analogues of Chevalley's formula…
For each odd prime p>=5, there exist finite p-groups G with derived quotient G/D(G)=C(p)xC(p) and nearly constant transfer kernel type k(G)=(1,2,...,2) having two fixed points. It is proved that, for p=7, this type k(G) with the simplest…
By the construction of suitable non-metabelian Schur sigma-groups S of type (9,3) with log order lo(S) = 21 and nilpotency class cl(S) = 9, evidence is provided of a new class of imaginary quadratic fields K with 3-class group Cl(3,K) ~…
