Construction and classification of some Galois modules
Abstract
Description
In our previous paper we describe the Galois module structures of $p$th-power class groups $K^\times/{K^{\times p}}$, where $K/F$ is a cyclic extension of degree $p$ over a field $F$ containing a primitive $p$th root of unity. Our description relies upon arithmetic invariants associated with $K/F$. Here we construct field extensions $K/F$ with prescribed arithmetic invariants, thus completing our classification of Galois modules $K^{\times}/K^{\times p}$.
