Review text

The author determines explicitly the automorphisms of all normal fields of degree \(n=3, 4, 6\) in terms of the coefficients of the defining equations. Similarly for all abelian fields of degree 8 and type \((2, 2, 2)\) or \((2, 4)\) and for a one-parameter family of cyclic octics. The method is purely rational. At the same time rational parametric representations of the most general equations defining these fields are obtained.
