Abstract: | We study Noether's problem for various subgroups of the normalizer of a group generated by an -cycle in , the symmetric group of degree , in three aspects according to the way they act on rational function fields, i.e., , and . We prove that it has affirmative answers for those containing properly and derive a -generic polynomial with four parameters for each . On the other hand, it is known in connection to the negative answer to the same problem for that there does not exist a -generic polynomial for . This leads us to the question whether and how one can describe, for a given field of characteristic zero, the set of -extensions . One of the main results of this paper gives an answer to this question. |
