Abstract

In this chapter we discuss the analogy between Galois groups with restricted ramification and link groups. In particular, we shall see the close analogy between Milnor’s theorem on the structure of a link group and a theorem by H. Koch on the structure of a pro-l Galois group over the rational number field with restricted ramification.
