Abstract

Let K0 be an algebraic function field of one variable over a Hilbertian field F of positive characteristic p. Let K be a finite Galois extension of K0. We prove that every finite embedding problem 1 → H → G → Gal(K/K0) → 1 whose kernel H is a p-group is properly solvable. Moreover, the solution can be chosen to locally coincide with finitely many, given in advance, weak local solutions. Finally, and this is the main point of this work, the number of prime divisors of K0/F that ramify in the solution field is bounded by the number of prime divisors of K0 that ramify in K plus the length of the maximal G-invariant sequence of subgroups of H.
