Abstract

For a prime number pwe characterize the finitely generated maximal pro- pGalois groups of algebraic extensions of Q . This generalizes a characterization by Jensen and Prestel of the maximal abelian quotients of these Galois groups. As an application we show that the Witt rings of the algebraic extensions of Q with finitely many square classes have elementary type.
