Thank you, quasi.
Let's suppose the base field is Q, and P(x) is an irreducible
polynomial of degree n over Q. Let alpha_1, ... alpha_n
be the n conjugate roots in the splitting field L (subfield of
C, the complex numbers) of P(x) over Q.
If sigma: {alpha_1, ... alpha_n} -> {alpha_1, .. alpha_n}
is a permutation of the n conjugate roots,
then according to me if a field automorphism of phi of L exists
which acts on {alpha_1, ... alpha_n} the same way
the permutation sigma does,
all the elementary symmetric polynomials in n indeterminates
must be invariant under the application of such
elementary symmetric polynomials:
[wikipedia, with def. of elementary symmetric polynomials]
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_symmetric_polynomial
In the other direction, if we have a sigma, permutation as above,
and all the elementary symmetric polynomials are left
invariant, does it follow that for the splitting field L,
there is a field automorphism phi of L such that
phi(alpha_j) = sigma(alpha_j), 1<=j<=n ?
In other words, phi acts on the alpha_j the same way sigma does.
If the elementary symmetric polynomials are left invariant by
sigma, does it follow that some automorphism phi of L
acts on {alpha_1, ... alpha_n} the same way sigma acts ?
