Copies of topological fundamental groups inside etale fundamental groups given by different embeddings of your field into $\mathbb{C}$
Let $X$ be a smooth curve over a number field $K$ (not necessarily proper). Fix an algebraic closure $\overline{K}$ of $K$.
Let $i,i' : \overline{K}\hookrightarrow\mathbb{C}$ be two abstract ...

Correspondence between coverings and field extensions
I am self reading from Groups as Galois Group by Helmut Volklein
There is a result on page 94(section 5.4)
Let $G$ be a finite group. Let $P\subset P^{1}$ finite and $q\in P^{1}\P$. There is a ...

Any galois covering of $P^{1}$ over rationals are of the form $\mathbb{P}^1_L\to\mathbb{P}^1_\mathbb{Q}$
I recently came across the following statement,
The Galois coverings of $\mathbb{P}^1_\mathbb{Q}$ are all of the form
$$\mathbb{P}^1_L\to\mathbb{P}^1_\mathbb{Q}$$ where $L$ is a number field.
How ...
