When monic integral polynomials of degree $n \geq 2$ are ordered by the maximum of the absolute value of their coefficients, the Hilbert irreducibility theorem implies that asymptotically 100% are irreducible and have Galois group…
Using Serre's proposed complement to Shih's Theorem, we obtain PSL_2(F_p) as a Galois group over Q for at least 614 new primes p. Under the assumption that rational elliptic curves with odd analytic rank have positive rank, we obtain Galois…
Let K be a number field and let f(x) = x^q + c where q is a prime power, c is in K, and f is not post-critically finite. We show that for any strictly preperiodic b in K, the iterated Galois group at b with respect to f has finite index in…

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…

For a prime p, we study the Galois groups of maximal pro-$p$ extensions of imaginary quadratic fields unramified outside a finite set $S$, where $S$ consists of one or two finite places not lying above $p$. When $p$ is odd, we give explicit…
We prove the existence of certain rationally rigid triples in F_4(p) for good primes p (i.e., p>3), thereby showing that these groups occur as regular Galois groups over Q(t) and so also over Q. We show that these triples give rise to rigid…
We give a deterministic polynomial-time algorithm to check whether the Galois group $\Gal{f}$ of an input polynomial $f(X) \in \Q[X]$ is nilpotent: the running time is polynomial in $\size{f}$. Also, we generalize the Landau-Miller…
Let $\tilde{f}(X)\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$ be a degree-$n$ polynomial such that $f(X):=\tilde{f}(X)\bmod p$ factorizes into $n$ distinct linear factors over $\mathbb{F}_p$. We study the problem of deterministically factoring $f(X)$ over…
Let $A = a_0T^m + \sum_{j=1}^{m-1} a_j (T^{m-j}+T^{m+j}) + T^{2m}+1 \in \mathbf{Z}[T]$ be a monic reciprocal polynomial of degree $2m$ sampled randomly by selecting its coefficients $a_0,a_1,\dots,a_{m-1}$ independently according to a given…
The van der Waerden's Conjecture states that the set $\mathscr{P}_{n,N}^0(\mathbb{Q})$ of monic integer polynomials $f(X)$ of degree $n$, with height $\le N$ such that the Galois group $G_{K_f/\mathbb{Q}}$ of the splitting field…
Let $p$ be a prime number and $c, d$ natural numbers. Up to isomorphism, there is a unique $p$-group $G^c_d$ of least order with rank $d$ and nilpotency class $c$ named disposition group. This group plays an important role in the…
Let $\mathcal{A}$ be a finite-dimensional algebra over a finite field $\mathbf{F}_q$ and let $G=\mathcal{A}^\times$ be the multiplicative group of $\mathcal{A}$. In this paper, we construct explicitly a generic Galois $G$-extension $S/R$,…
Using the action of the Galois group of a normal extension of number fields, we generalize and symmetrize various fundamental statements in algebra and algebraic number theory concerning splitting types of prime ideals, factorization types…
In this paper we consider the density of maximal order elements in $\mathrm{GL}_n(q)$. Fixing any of the rank $n$ of the group, the characteristic $p$ or the degree $r$ of the extension of the underlying field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of size…
The second generalized GK function fields $K_n$ are a recently found family of maximal function fields over the finite field with $q^{2n}$ elements, where $q$ is a prime power and $n \ge 1$ an odd integer. In this paper we construct many…
This work provides a method(an algorithm) for solving the solvable unary algebraic equation $f(x)=0$ ($f(x)\in\mathbb{Q}[x]$) of arbitrary degree and obtaining the exact radical roots. This method requires that we know the Galois group as…
An irreducible polynomial $f\in\Bbb F_q[X]$ of degree $n$ is {\em normal} over $\Bbb F_q$ if and only if its roots $r, r^q,\dots,r^{q^{n-1}}$ satisfy the condition $\Delta_n(r, r^q,\dots,r^{q^{n-1}})\ne 0$, where…
We give an explicit description of the arithmetic-geometric extension of iterated Galois groups of rational functions. This yields a complete solution to the extension problem when either the arithmetic or the geometric iterated Galois…
