On the monogenicity and Galois groups of $\boldsymbol{x^{2p}+ax^p+b^p}$

Joshua Harrington, Lenny Jones

Abstract

Let $f(x)=x^{2p}+ax^p+b^p$, where $p$ is a prime and $a,b\in {\mathbb Z}$ with $ab\ne 0$. If $f(x)$ is irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$, we say that $f(x)$ is monogenic if $\{1,θ,θ^2,\ldots ,θ^{2p-1}\}$ is a basis for the ring of integers of ${\mathbb Q}(θ)$, where $f(θ)=0$. In this article, we give a characterization of the monogenic trinomials $f(x)$ according to their Galois groups. These results extend prior investigations of the authors.
