PSL 2(11) is Admissible for all Number Fields

  • Chapter
Algebra, Arithmetic and Geometry with Applications

Abstract

Let K be a field and let G be a finite group. Then G is K-admissible if there exists a Galois extension L of K with Galois group G such that L is a maximal subfield of a central division algebra D over K. In [1] it was shown that PSL 2(11) is Q admissible. As is mentioned there, I was able to simplify their argument and also show that if K is an algebraic number field in which the prime (2) has at least two extensions then K is PSL 2(11)-admissible.
