On Galois groups of linearized polynomials related to the general linear group of prime degree
Rod Gow, Gary McGuire
Let be any -linearized polynomial with coefficients in , of degree . We consider the Galois group of over , where is tra…
Linearized Polynomials, Galois Groups and Symmetric Power Modules
Rod Gow, Gary McGuire
We investigate some Galois groups of linearized polynomials over fields such as . The space of roots of such a polynomial is a module for its Galois group. We pres…
On Galois groups of linearized polynomials related to the special linear group of prime degree
Rod Gow, Gary McGuire
Let be a field of prime characteristic and let be a power of . We assume that contains the finite field of order . A -polynomial over is an element…
Properties of determinantal polynomials of subspaces of matrices over a finite field
Rod Gow
Let K be a field and let M_n(K) denote the space of n x n matrices with entries in K. Let M be a subspace of M_n(K) of dimension d with the property that there are elements in M wi…
On the realization of subgroups of , and their automorphism groups, as Galois groups over function fields
Rod Gow, Gary McGuire
Let be any field. We give a short and elementary proof that any finite subgroup of occurs as a Galois group over the function field . We also develop a the…
Invariant Rational Functions, Linear Fractional Transformations and Irreducible Polynomials over Finite Fields
Rod Gow, Gary McGuire
For a subgroup of we show how some irreducible polynomials over arise from the field of invariant rational functions. The proofs rely on two actions of $P…
