Abstract

We present a method for computing complete lists of number fields in cases where the Galois group, as an abstract group, appears as a Galois group in smaller degree. We apply this method to find the 25 octic fields with Galois group PSL₂(7) and smallest absolute discriminant. We carry out a number of related computations, including determining the octic field with Galois group 2³:GL₃(2) of smallest absolute discriminant.
