Galois realizations with inertia groups of order two

There are several variants of the inverse Galois problem which involve restrictions on ramification. In this paper we give sufficient conditions that a given finite group $G$ occurs infinitely often as a Galois group over the rationals $\mathbb Q$ with all nontrivial inertia groups of order $2$. Notably any such realization of $G$ can be translated up to a quadratic field over which the corresponding realization of $G$ is unramified. The sufficient conditions are imposed on a parametric polynomial with Galois group $G$--if such a polynomial is available--and the infinitely many realizations come from infinitely many specializations of the parameter in the polynomial. This will be applied to the three finite simple groups $A_5$, $PSL_2(7)$ and $PSL_3(3)$. Finally, the applications to $A_5$ and $PSL_3(3)$ are used to prove the existence of infinitely many optimally intersective realizations of these groups over the rational numbers (proved earlier for $PSL_2(7)$ by the first author).

Upper bound on the number of ramified primes for odd order solvable groups

Let $G$ be a finite group and let $ram^{t}(G)$ denote the minimal positive integer $n$ such that $G$ can be realized as the Galois group of a tamely ramified extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ ramified only at $n$ finite primes. Let $d(G)$ denote the minimal non negative integer for which there exists a subset $X$ of $G$ with $d(G)$ elements such that the normal subgroup of $G$ generated by $X$ is all of $G$. It is known that $d(G)\leq ram^{t}(G)$. However, it is unknown whether or not every finite group $G$ can be realized as a Galois group of a tamely ramified extension of $\mathbb{Q}$ with exactly $d(G)$ ramified primes. We will show that $3\cdot log(|G|)$ is an upper bound for $ram^{t}(G)$ for all odd order solvable group $G$.

On Galois realizations of the 2-coverable symmetric and alternating groups

Let f(x) be a monic polynomial in Z[x] with no rational roots but with roots in Q_p for all p, or equivalently, with roots mod n for all n. It is known that f(x) cannot be irreducible but can be a product of two or more irreducible polynomials, and that if f(x) is a product of m>1 irreducible polynomials, then its Galois group must be "m-coverable", i.e. a union of conjugates of m proper subgroups, whose total intersection is trivial. We are thus led to a variant of the inverse Galois problem: given an m-coverable finite group G, find a Galois realization of G over the rationals Q by a polynomial f(x) in Z[x] which is a product of m nonlinear irreducible factors (in Q[x]) such that f(x) has a root in Q_p for all p. The minimal value m=2 is of special interest. It is known that the symmetric group S_n is 2-coverable if and only if 2<n<7, and the alternating group A_n is 2-coverable if and only if 3<n<9. In this paper we solve the above variant of the inverse Galois problem for the 2-coverable symmetric and alternating groups, and exhibit an explicit polynomial for each group, with the help of the software packages MAGMA, PARI and GAP.
