In an earlier paper [J. Number Theory 23, 195--202 (1986; Zbl 0598.12007)] the authors constructed a degree \(12\) polynomial \(f(t,X)\) over \(\mathbb Q(t)\) with Galois group the Mathieu group \(M_{12}\) and specializations \(t\to\tau \in\mathbb Q\) which realize \(M_{12}\) as Galois group over \(\mathbb Q\). In the present paper this program is carried out for \(M_{11}\), the one point stabilizer in \(M_{12}\) as Galois group of \(f(t,X)\). As \(f(t,X)\) has the form \(f_1(X)-tf_2(X)\) the authors obtain the polynomial \[ g(x,X)=f_2(x)\cdot f(t,X)/X-x\in\mathbb Q(x)[X] \] for \(M_{11}\) over \(\mathbb Q(x)\). Specializations \(x\to \tau\) with \(\tau\in\mathbb Z\), \(\tau \equiv 1 \pmod{7\cdot 19}\) yield \(\mathbb Q\)-polynomials with Galois group \(M_{11}\). These results are also included in the first author's monograph ``Konstruktive Galoistheorie [Lect. Notes Math. 1284. Berlin etc.: Springer-Verlag (1987; Zbl 0634.12011)]. In addition the authors compute the discriminants for \(f(t,X)\) and \(g(x,X)\) and correct misprints in earlier papers concerning polynomials with Galois group \(\mathrm{PSL}_2(7)\) over \(\mathbb Q(t)\).
