Abstract:We describe an online database of number fields which accompanies this paper. The database centers on complete lists of number fields with prescribed invariants. Our description here focuses on summarizing tables and connections to theoretical issues of current interest.
“…We know from [10] that this set consists of 2080 fields. We list these fields by increasing discriminant, K 1 , …, K 2080 , with the resolution of ties conveniently not affecting the explicit results appearing in Table 3.…”
“…Early work for quartics, quintics, sextics, and septics include respectively [2][3][4]7,13,[21][22][23]25,31]. Further results towards 2 in higher degrees are extractable from the websites associated to [10,12,14].…”

“…The fourth entry gives the position of the source number field on the complete list ordered by Galois root discriminant. This information lets readers obtain further information from [10], such as a defining polynomial and details on ramification.…”

“…This method, applied to both old and newer lists presented in [10], accounts for all but one of the δ 1 reported in Roman type on the same line as a 0 in the # column. The remaining case of an established δ 1 is for the type (GL 3 (2), χ 7 ).…”

“…However examples like the one in the previous paragraph suggest to us that in many cases the resulting increase in d towards δ 1 would be very small. Tables 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 make implicit reference to many Galois number fields, and all necessary complete lists are accessible from the database [10]. Table 8 presents a small excerpt from this database by giving six polynomials f (x).…”
We study the problem of finding the Artin L-functions with the smallest conductor for a given Galois type. We adapt standard analytic techniques to our novel situation of fixed Galois type and obtain much improved lower bounds on the smallest conductor. For small Galois types we use complete tables of number fields to determine the actual smallest conductor.

We use a rigidity argument to prove the existence of two related degree twenty-eight covers of the projective plane with Galois group SU 3 (3).2 ∼ = G 2 (2). Constructing corresponding two-parameter polynomials directly from the defining group-theoretic data seems beyond feasablity. Instead we provide two independent constructions of these polynomials, one from 3-division points on covers of the projective line studied by Deligne and Mostow, and one from 2-division points of genus three curves studied by Shioda. We explain how one of the covers also arises as a 2-division polynomial for a family of G 2 motives in the classification of Dettweiler and Reiter. We conclude by specializing our two covers to get interesting three-point covers and number fields which would be hard to construct directly.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
