Abstract

top
The fields defined by the polynomials constructed in E. Nart and the author in J. Number Theory 16, (1983), 6–13, Th. 2.1, with absolute Galois group the alternating group A n , can be embedded in any central extension of A n if and only if n 0 ( m o d 8 ) , or n 2 ( m o d 8 ) and n is a sum of two squares. Consequently, for theses values of n , every central extension of A n occurs as a Galois group over Q .
