Recent progress in determining p-class field towers
Daniel C. Mayer ;
Date 31 May 2016
AbstractFor a fixed prime p, the p-class tower F(p,infinity,K) of a number field K is considered to be known if a pro-p presentation of the Galois group H = Gal( F(p,infinity,K)/K ) is given. In the last few years, it turned out that the Artin pattern AP(K) = (tau(K),kappa(K)) consisting of targets tau(K) = (Cl(p,L)) and kernels kappa(K) = (ker(J(L/K)) of class extensions J(L/K): Cl(p,K) --> Cl(p,L) to unramified abelian subfields L/K of the Hilbert p-class field F(p,1,K) only suffices for determining the two-stage approximation G = H/H" of H. Additional techniques had to be developed for identifying the group H itself: searching strategies in descendant trees of finite p-groups, iterated and multilayered IPADs of second order, and the cohomological concept of Shafarevich covers involving relation ranks. This enabled the discovery of three-stage towers of p-class fields over quadratic base fields K = Q( squareroot(d) ) for p = 2,3,5. These non-metabelian towers reveal the new phenomenon of various tree topologies expressing the mutual location of the groups H and G.
