Determine Gal$(mathbb{Q}(sqrt[8]{7},i)/mathbb{Q}(sqrt{7}))$ and...












1














Let $K=mathbb{Q}(sqrt[8]{7},i)$, let $F_1 = mathbb{Q}(sqrt{7})$ and let $F_2=mathbb{Q}(sqrt{-7})$.



(a) Prove $K$ is Galois over $F_1$ and over $F_2$, and determine $[K:F_1]$ and $[K:F_2]$.



(b) Determine Gal$(K/F_1)$ and Gal$(K/F_2)$.



I first thought that $K/mathbb{Q}$ was a Galois extension so that I could apply the fundamental theorem of Galois Theory, but turned out that's only true when $K=mathbb{Q}(sqrt[8]{2},i)$. Now I'm having trouble to show $K$ is Galois over both $F_1$ and $F_2$, I got stuck on finding the separable minimal polynomial over $mathbb{Q}(sqrt{7})$ or over $mathbb{Q}(sqrt{-7})$. I feel like that $[K:F_1]=8=[K:F_2]$, since
$$mathbb{Q}(sqrt{7})subseteqmathbb{Q}(sqrt[8]{7})subseteqmathbb{Q}(sqrt[8]{7},i), $$ but I need the minimal polynomials to justify I think. I would appreciate for any help!

          If $F$ has characteristic zero, and $K=F(sqrt[4]a,i)$ where $ain F$, then $K$
          is Galois over $F$, being the splitting field of $x^4-a$. Your first
          example has $a=sqrt7$.



          The Galois group of $K/F_1$ has order $8$, and computing it is very similar
          to standard examples such as $Bbb Q(sqrt[4]2,i)/Bbb Q$. The group is
          dihedral of order $8$.



          I don't think $K/F_2$ is Galois.
