✦ Synopsis
Let G be a transitive, solvable subgroup of S . We show that there is a common 6 Ž .
w x formula for finding the roots of all irreducible sextic polynomials f x g Q x with Ž . Gal f s G. Moreover, once the roots r are calculated, there is an explicit i Ž . procedure for numbering them so that the Galois group acts via r s r for
g G ; S . We also demonstrate new criteria for determining the Galois group of 6 Ž . w x an irreducible sextic polynomial f x g Q x . The first two results generalize Ž .

The Maclaurin transform (or generating function method) is generalized to have as its range a ring of formal power series. All the usual operations needed for solving difference equations via this method are then carried out in the quotient division algebra of this ring. This allows one to solve dif
