Let $f(T)$ be a monic polynomial of degree $d$ with coefficients in a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. Extending earlier results in the literature, but now allowing $(q,2d)>1$, we give a criterion for $f$ to satisfy the following property: for…

Consider the integral polynomials $f_{a,b}(x)=x^4+ax+b$ and $g_{c,d}(x)=x^4+cx^3+d$. Suppose $f_{a,b}(x)$ and $g_{c,d}(x)$ are irreducible, $b\mid a$, and the integers $b$, $d$, $256d-27c^4$, and $\dfrac{256b^3-27a^4}{\gcd(256b^3,27a^4)}$…

Let $f(x)=x^{n}+ax^{3}+bx+c$ be the minimal polynomial of an algebraic integer $\theta$ over the rationals with certain conditions on $a,~b,~c,$ and $n.$ Let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\theta)$ be a number field and $\mathcal{O}_{K}$ be the ring of…

In this paper we prove the assertion that the number of monic cubic polynomials $F(x) = x^3 + a_2 x^2 + a_1 x + a_0$ with integer coefficients and irreducible, Galois over $\mathbb{Q}$ satisfying $\max\{|a_2|, |a_1|, |a_0|\} \leq X$ is…

There exist homogeneous polynomials $f$ with $\mathbb Q$-coefficients that are sums of squares over $\mathbb R$ but not over $\mathbb Q$. The only systematic construction of such polynomials that is known so far uses as its key ingredient…

We explore families of pairs of quadratic polynomials $f(x)=x^2+c\in \mathbb{Q}$ and $a\in \mathbb{Q}$ with $a$ being a strictly preperiodic point of $f$ to provide infinitely many new examples for which the associated arboreal Galois…

Given a prime power $q$ and positive integers $m,t,e$ with $e > mt/2$, we determine the number of all monic irreducible polynomials $f(x)$ of degree $m$ with coefficients in $\mathbb{F}_q$ such that $f(x^t)$ contains an irreducible factor…

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 f(x) = x^n + (a[n-1] t + b[n-1]) x^(n-1) + ... + (a[0] t + b[0]) be of constant degree n in x and degree <= 1 in t, where all a[i],b[i] are randomly and uniformly selected from a finite field GF(q) of q elements. Then the probability…

We compute new polynomials with Galois group $M_{11}$ over $\mathbb{Q}(t)$. These polynomials stem from various families of covers of $\mathbb{P}^1\mathbb{C}$ ramified over at least 4 points. Each of these families has features that make a…

Let $L(X)$ be a monic $q$-linearized polynomial over $F_q$ of degree $q^n$, where $n$ is an odd prime. Recently Gow and McGuire showed that the Galois group of $L(X)/X-t$ over the field of rational functions $F_q(t)$ is $GL_n(q)$ unless…

Let $f(x)=x^{12}+ax^6+b \in \mathbb{Q}[x]$ be an irreducible polynomial, $g_4(x)=x^4+ax^2+b$, $g_6(x)=x^6+ax^3+b$, and let $G_4$ and $G_6$ be the Galois group of $g_4(x)$ and $g_6(x)$, respectively. Building upon known characterizations of…

We give a method of constructing polynomials of arbitrarily large degree irreducible over a global field F but reducible modulo every prime of F. The method consists of finding quadratic f in F[x] whose iterates have the desired property,…

Let $\mathbb{F}_q$ denote the finite field of $q$ elements and $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ the degree $n$ extension of $\mathbb{F}_q$. A normal basis of $\mathbb{F}_{q^n}$ over $\mathbb{F} _q$ is a basis of the form…

For each finite subgroup $G$ of $PGL_2(\mathbb{Q})$, and for each integer $n$ coprime to $6$, we construct explicitly infinitely many Galois extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ with group $G$ and whose ideal class group has $n$-rank at least…

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…

In this paper we obtain new quantitative forms of Hilbert's Irreducibility Theorem. In particular, we show that if $f(X, T_1, \ldots, T_s)$ is an irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients, having Galois group $G$ over the function…

We establish that any finite extension of function fields of genus greater than 1 whose relative class group is trivial is Galois and cyclic. This depends on a result from a preceding paper which establishes a finite list of possible Weil…

Of the $(2H+1)^n$ monic integer polynomials $f(x)=x^n+a_1 x^{n-1}+\cdots+a_n$ with $\max\{|a_1|,\ldots,|a_n|\}\leq H$, how many have associated Galois group that is not the full symmetric group $S_n$? There are clearly $\gg H^{n-1}$ such…

We classify the finite groups $G$ which satisfies the condition that every complex irreducible character,whose degree's square doesn't divide the index of its kernel in $G$, lies in the same Galois conjugacy class.
