# Galois Group of Polynomial

I would like to compute the Galois group of the Polynomial $f(x)=x^5-5x^4 +10 x^3 - 10 x^2 - 135 x + 131\in\mathbb{Q}[x]$

I already know that it is irreducible in $\mathbb{Q}[x]$ via Eisenstein's criterion, $f(x-1)$ and $p=5$, but have no idea how to proceed.

Thank you very much!

$f(x+1)=x^5-140x-8$. Eisenstein does not apply. –  Chris Eagle Jan 16 '13 at 10:47
Thank you, I meant f(x-1). I have corrected it in the post. –  testrado Jan 16 '13 at 10:54
$f(x-1)=x^5-10x^4+40x^3-80x^2-60x+240$, so $p=2$ again fails. $p=5$ works, though. –  Chris Eagle Jan 16 '13 at 10:56
Ok, sorry, I should really take more time to proofread in future. Sorry, that was only my second question I have asked until now. –  testrado Jan 16 '13 at 10:58

As the polynomial is irreducible of degree $5$, the group is a subgroup of $S_5$ containing a $5$-cycle. If it has exactly $2$ non-real roots, then the group has a transposition coming from complex conjugation, and you should be able to take it from there. If it has $4$ non-real roots, it will take some more work.
Who said anything about a CAS? There is a simple theorem about a subgroup of $S_p$ containing a $p$-cycle and a transposition, when $p$ is prime. –  Gerry Myerson Jan 16 '13 at 11:04
