Criteria for the Applicability of Galois Groups.
U. Brosa

Knowing the Galois group, to which an algebraic equation belongs, may simplify the solution of the equation considerably. Up to the present, however, known methods to find the pertinent Galois group took more work than even the most complicated solution of the equation. For the first time, the general method of finding easy-to-use criteria for the applicability of certain Galois groups is explained and applied to a surprising example.
Key words: bifurcations, Galois theory
