The PARI database contains complete lists of fields with the absolute discriminant D|D| less than given bounds, and was compiled from the work of several authors. Fields from Voight extend these lists in cases where the number of complex places is 00 or 11. In other cases, the bounds have been extended by Jones and Roberts. The bounds for octics come from results of Diaz y Diaz and Battistoni and those for nonics are due to Battistoni.

For fields computed by Jones and Roberts, the number fields in the LMFDB are complete in the following cases. The degree of a field is given by nn.

Degree 22 fields unramified outside {2,3,5,7,11,13,17}\{2,3,5,7,11,13,17\}
Degree 33 fields unramified outside {2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19}\{2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19\}
Degree 44 fields unramified outside {2,3,5,7,11,13}\{2,3,5,7,11,13\}
Degree 55 fields unramified outside {2,3,5,7}\{2,3,5,7\}
Fields unramified outside {2,3}\{2,3\} with n7n\leq 7
Fields ramified at only one prime pp with p<102p<102 with n7n\leq 7
Fields ramified at only two primes p<q<500p\lt q \lt 500 with n4n\leq 4
Fields ramified at only two primes p<q5p\lt q \leq 5 with 5n75\leq n\leq 7
Fields ramified at only three primes p<q<r<100p\lt q \lt r \lt 100 with n4n\leq 4
All abelian fields of degree 47\leq 47 and conductor 1000\leq 1000
Degree 88 fields with Galois group Q8Q_8 which are unramified outside of {2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23}\{2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23\}

For the remaining cases, the bound depends on the Galois group. Galois groups are given by tt-number. The bound BB is for the root discriminant.

Selected fields from the Klüners-Malle database, plus the work of others for the Galois group 17T7, provide examples of fields with many different Galois groups. As a result, the LMFDB contains at least one field for each Galois group (transitive subgroup of SnS_n up to conjugation) which in degree n<20n<20.
