Abstract

Let KK be a number field and SS a set of primes of KK. We write KS/KK_S/K for the maximal extension of KK unramified outside SS and GK,SG_{K,S} for its Galois group. In this paper, we prove the following generalization of the Neukirch-Uchida theorem under some assumptions: "For i=1,2i=1,2, let KiK_i be a number field and SiS_i a set of primes of KiK_i. If GK1,S1G_{K_1,S_1} and GK2,S2G_{K_2,S_2} are isomorphic, then K1K_1 and K2K_2 are isomorphic." Here the main assumption is that the Dirichlet density of SiS_i is not zero for at least one ii. A key step of the proof is to recover group-theoretically the ll-adic cyclotomic character of an open subgroup of GK,SG_{K,S} for some prime number ll.
