TL;DR: In this article, a constructive approach to the inverse Galois problem is described, where given a finite group G and a field K, determine whether there exists a Galois extension of K whose Galois group is isomorphic to G.
Abstract: This book describes a constructive approach to the inverse Galois problem: Given a finite group G and a field K, determine whether there exists a Galois extension of K whose Galois group is isomorphic to G. Further, if there is such a Galois extension, find an explicit polynomial over K whose Galois group is the prescribed group G. The main theme of the book is an exposition of a family of �generic� polynomials for certain finite groups, which give all Galois extensions having the required group as their Galois group. The existence of such generic polynomials is discussed, and where they do exist, a detailed treatment of their construction is given. The book also introduces the notion of �generic dimension� to address the problem of the smallest number of parameters required by a generic polynomial.

TL;DR: A detailed introduction to various basic concepts, methods, principles, and results of commutative algebra can be found in this paper, where the authors take a constructive viewpoint and study algorithmic approaches alongside several abstract classical theories, such as Galois theory, Dedekind rings, Prfer rings, finitely generated projective modules, dimension theory of Commutative rings and others.
Abstract: Translated from the popular French edition, this book offers a detailed introduction to various basic concepts, methods, principles, and results of commutative algebra. It takes a constructive viewpoint in commutative algebra and studies algorithmic approaches alongside several abstract classical theories. Indeed, it revisits these traditional topics with a new and simplifying manner, making the subject both accessible and innovative. The algorithmic aspects of such naturally abstract topics as Galois theory, Dedekind rings, Prfer rings, finitely generated projective modules, dimension theory of commutative rings, and others in the current treatise, are all analysed in the spirit of the great developers of constructive algebra in the nineteenth century. This updated and revised edition contains over 350 well-arranged exercises, together with their helpful hints for solution. A basic knowledge of linear algebra, group theory, elementary number theory as well as the fundamentals of ring and module theory is required. Commutative Algebra: Constructive Methods will be useful for graduate students, and also researchers, instructors and theoretical computer scientists.

TL;DR: Theorem 4.1 was proved in this article, where Buhler and Reichstein showed that the essential dimension of Ω(ℤ/8Ω)=4, a result which was conjectured in 1995.
Abstract: Let p be a prime number, let K be a field of characteristic not p, containing the p-th roots of unity, and let r≥1 be an integer. We compute the essential dimension of ℤ/p r ℤ over K (Theorem 4.1). In particular, i) We have edℚ(ℤ/8ℤ)=4, a result which was conjectured by Buhler and Reichstein in 1995 (unpublished). ii) We have edℚ(ℤ/p r ℤ)≥p r-1.

TL;DR: In this article, the canonical dimension of an algebraic group action is defined and studied, and the problem of computing the minimal number of parameters required to define a generic hypersurface of degree d in P^{n-1}.
Abstract: We define and study a new numerical invariant of an algebraic group action which we call the canonical dimension. We then apply the resulting theory to the problem of computing the minimal number of parameters required to define a generic hypersurface of degree d in P^{n-1}.
