  Inverse Galois problem - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics, the inverse Galois problem concerns whether or not every finite group appears as the Galois group of some Galois extension of the rational numbers Q.
This problem, first posed by Emmy Noether, is unsolved.
Some of this is based on constructing G geometrically as a Galois covering of the projective line: in algebraic terms, start with an extension of the field Q(t) of rational functions in an indeterminate t.

In mathematics, Galois theory is a branch of abstract algebra.
Galois theory not only provides a beautiful answer to this question, it also explains in detail why it is possible to solve equations of degree four or lower in the above manner, and why their solutions take the form that they do.
The central idea of Galois theory is to consider those permutations (or rearrangements) of the roots having the property that any algebraic equation satisfied by the roots is still satisfied after the roots have been permuted.

 Galois theory
In mathematics, Galois theory is that branch of abstract algebra which studies the symmetries of the roots of polynomial s.
Symmetries are usually expressed in terms of symmetry group s, and in fact the very notion of a group was invented by Evariste Galois to describe symmetries of roots.
This is called the inverse Galois problem, and is usually posed for extensions of the rational number field 'Q'''.

 Inverse Galois Theory (Springer Monographs in Mathematics)
Kurzbeschreibung Inverse Galois Theory is concerned with the question of which finite groups occur as Galois Groups over a given field.
In particular, this includes the question of the structure and the representations of the absolute Galois group of K and also the question about its finite epimorphic images, the so-called inverse problem of Galois theory.

 UF Mathematics: About Group Theory
When Galois investigated the solvability of polynomial equations in terms of radicals, he studied certain types of groups associated with such equations which are called Galois groups today.
The Inverse Galois Problem concerns the question whether for any given group there exists a polynomial equation such that the Galois group associated with the solution of this equation is the given group.
A famous problem that remained unsolved for many years was the conjecture that every group with an odd number of elements is solvable.

In order to simplify the problem, we use strongly the fact that a manipulator cannot be constructed with exact parameters, in other words, we are just interested in the generic solutions of our problem.
However, some specific symbolic computation problems have received in the last years new algorithmic solutions, which enabled to push further the limits of what is doable within a reasonable amount of time and space.
Such algorithms are useful, as they occur in several problems, such as the Toom-Cook-like algorithms to multiply large multiple-precision integers, the approximate computation of consecutive values of a polynomial, and the generation of integer multiplications by compilers.

The inverse Galois problem for p-adic Lie algebras
For a number field K and a (compact) p-adic Lie groups G, the inverse Galois problem asks whether G can be realized as the Galois group of an extension of K. Already in the case that G is zero-dimensional, this is too difficult.
So I propose to relax the problem and ask which p-adic Lie algebras can be realized.

This book describes a constructive approach to the inverse Galois problem: Given a finite group G and a field K, determine whether there exists a Galois extension of K whose Galois group is isomorphic to G.
Further, if there is such a Galois extension, find an explicit polynomial over K whose Galois group is the prescribed group G.
The main theme of the book is an exposition of a family of “generic” polynomials for certain finite groups, which give all Galois extensions having the required group as their Galois group.

Applying modular towers to the Inverse Galois Problem
In this paper we apply Modular towers to the Inverse Galois Problem and the main conjecture is formulated which states roughly that there do not exist projective limits of rational points on the Modular towers.
First steps towards attacking this conjecture are taken and its implication to the Inverse Galois problem is described.
