Abstract

Consider tuples ( K1 , … , Kr ) of separable algebras over a common local or global number field F1, with the Ki related to each other by specified resolvent constructions. Under the assumption that all ramification is tame, simple group-theoretic calculations give best possible divisibility relations among the discriminants of Ki ∕ F . We show that for many resolvent constructions, these divisibility relations continue to hold even in the presence of wild ramification.
