Among them are geometrically Galois extensions of κ(T), with κ a field: extensions that become Galois and remain of the same degree over κ(T). We develop a pre-Galois theory that includes a Galois correspondence, and investigate the corresponding variants of the inverse Galois problem. We provide answers in situations where the classical analogs are not known. In particular, for every finite simple group G, some power Gn is a geometric Galois group over k, and is a pre-Galois group over k if k is Hilbertian. For every finite group G, the same conclusion holds for G itself (n = 1) if k = Qab and G has a weakly rigid tuple of conjugacy classes; and then G is a regular Galois group over an extension of Qab of degree dividing the order of Out(G). We also show that the inverse problem for pre-Galois extensions over a field k (that every finite group is a pre-Galois group over k) is equivalent to the a priori stronger inverse Galois problem over k, and similarly for the geometric vs. regular variants.Show less >
