The p-class tower $F_p^\infty(k)$ of a number field k is its maximal unramified pro-p extension. It is considered to be known when the p-tower group, that is the Galois group $G:=Gal(F_p^\infty(k)/k)$, can be identified by an explicit…

Let p be a prime and K be a number field with non-trivial p-class group Cl(p,K). A crucial step in identifying the Galois group G=G(p,K) of the maximal unramified pro-p extension of K is to determine its two-stage approximation M=G(p,2,K),…

For a fixed prime p, the p-class tower F(p,infinity,K) of a number field K is considered to be known if a pro-p presentation of the Galois group H = Gal( F(p,infinity,K)/K ) is given. In the last few years, it turned out that the Artin…

In this work, we show that given a finite p-group G, a number field K having a trivial p-class group Cl K , and a finite set of primes S of K, there exists a finite extension F/K such that the S-split p-Hilbert class field tower L S p (F )…

Let p$\ge$2 be a given prime number. We prove, for any number field kappa and any integer e$\ge$1, the p-rank $\epsilon$-conjecture, on the p-class groups Cl\_F, for the family F\_kappa^p^e of towers F/kappa built as successive degree p…

In the present paper, we shall show that for any prime number p, every finite p-group occurs as the Galois Group of the maximal unramified p-extension over a certain number field of finite degree. We shall also show that for any given…

Let p be a prime. For any finite p-group G, the deep transfers T(H,G'):H/H' --> G'/G'' from the maximal subgroups H of index (G:H)=p in G to the derived subgroup G' are introduced as an innovative tool for identifying G uniquely by means of…

Let $p$ be an odd prime. For a number field $K$, we let $K_\infty$ be the maximal unramified pro-$p$ extension of $K$; we call the group $\mathrm{Gal}(K_\infty/K)$ the $p$-class tower group of $K$. In a previous work, as a non-abelian…

Let $p$ be a prime and let $F$ be a number field. Consider a Galois extension $K/F$ with Galois group $H\rtimes \Delta$ where $H\cong \mathbb{Z}_p$ or $\mathbb{Z}/p^d\mathbb{Z}$, and $\Delta$ is an arbitrary Galois group. The subfields…

Given an abelian algebraic group $A$ over a global field $F$, $\alpha \in A(F)$, and a prime $\ell$, the set of all preimages of $\alpha$ under some iterate of $[\ell]$ generates an extension of $F$ that contains all $\ell$-power torsion…

All current techniques for showing that a number field has an infinite p-class field tower depend on one of various forms of the Golod-Shafarevich inequality. Such techniques can also be used to restrict the types of p-groups which can…

Given a $p$-adic field $K$ and a prime number $\ell$, we count the total number of the isomorphism classes of $p^\ell$-extensions of $K$ having no intermediate fields. Moreover for each group that can appear as Galois group of the normal…

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 $p$ 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…

In this paper we interpret the solutions to a particular Galois embedding problem over an extension K/F whose Galois group is a finite, cyclic p group in terms of certain Galois submodules within the parameterizing space of elementary…

For a prime number $\ell$ and an extension of number fields $K/F$, we prove new lower bounds on the $\ell$-rank of the ideal class group of $K$ based on prime ramification in $K/F$. Unlike related results from the literature, our bound is…

For a prime \(p\ge 2\) and a number field K with p-class group of type (p,p) it is shown that the class, coclass, and further invariants of the metabelian Galois group \(G=Gal(F_p^2(K) | K)\) of the second Hilbert p-class field \(F_p^2(K)\)…

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…
