Abstract

Let L/K be any finite separable extension with normal closure \widetildeL/K. An extension L'/K is said to be parallel to L/K if L' is an intermediate field of \widetildeL/K with [L':K]=[L:K]. We study the following question -- Given that L/K admits a Hopf--Galois structure of type N, does it imply that every extension parallel to L/K also admits a Hopf--Galois structure of type N? We completely solve this problem when the degree [L:K] is a prime power and the type N is cyclic. Our approach is group-theoretic and uses the work of Greither--Pareigis and Byott.
