Abstract

In this bachelor's project, I aim to describe, given a general monic polynomial with integer coefficients of degrees at most 6, the Galois group of its splitting field over Q. First of all, there are two situations to consider: the polynomial is irreducible or reducible. In the former case, we can use discriminant, resolvent and the subtle connection between irreducibility and transitive subgroups of Sn; in the latter case, we can factor the polynomial into irreducible factors of smaller degrees, explore the relation among their splitting fields and apply the results we already obtained.
