Abstract: Let L/K be a finite Galois extension of fields with group Gamma. When Gamma is nilpotent, we show that the problem of enumerating all nilpotent Hopf-Galois structures on L/K can be reduced to the corresponding problem for the Sylow subgroups of Gamma. We use this to enumerate all nilpotent (resp. abelian) Hopf-Galois structures on a cyclic extension of arbitrary finite degree. When Gamma is abelian, we give conditions under which every abelian Hopf-Galois structure on L/K has type Gamma. We also give a criterion on n such that emph{every} Hopf-Galois structure on a cyclic extension of degree n has cyclic type.
