Hi, I am trying to compute some Galois groups with Axiom. A way is to go after the example given in section 8.13 of the manual which follows closely and implements the original definition by Galois of the Galois group. I am trying a different way: I would like to exploit a theorem by Kronecker which provides an easy algorithm to compute the Galois group of a given polynomial. I wrote the function which implements the algorithm and it works... sometimes. :( Which means that I have some problems. My question is: is there anybody that is willing to help me to fix it if I post the code? The code is not very long (about 40-50 lines) but it needs to be explained, so I am asking before to make the effort. TIA Fabio
