Identifying Frobenius elements in Galois groups

Tim Dokchitser and Vladimir Dokchitser

Vol. 7 (2013), No. 6, 1325–1352
Abstract

We present a method to determine Frobenius elements in arbitrary Galois extensions of global fields, which may be seen as a generalisation of Euler’s criterion. It is a part of the general question how to compare splitting fields and identify conjugacy classes in Galois groups, which we will discuss as well.
