Description for Brauer Type Embedding Problems (Fields Institute Monographs)
Hardcover. A monograph that is concerned with Galois theoretical embedding problems of so-called Brauer type with a focus on 2-groups and on finding explicit criteria for solvability and explicit constructions of the solutions. It also considers questions of reducing the embedding problems and reformulating the solvability criteria. Series: Fields Institute Monographs. Num Pages: 171 pages. BIC Classification: PBG. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Weight in Grams: 567.
This monograph is concerned with Galois theoretical embedding problems of so-called Brauer type with a focus on 2-groups and on finding explicit criteria for solvability and explicit constructions of the solutions. The advantage of considering Brauer type embedding problems is their comparatively simple condition for solvability in the form of an obstruction in the Brauer group of the ground field. The book presupposes knowledge of classical Galois theory and the attendant algebra. Before considering questions of reducing the embedding problems and reformulating the solvability criteria, the author provides the necessary theory of Brauer groups, group cohomology and quadratic forms.
