Let $L/K$ be a Galois extension of number fields. We know that if $Q,Q'$ are two primes of $L$ lying over a prime $P$ of $K$, then

My question is this: Is the converse true ?

If $L/K$ is an extension which has the following property:

Let $P$ be any prime of $K$. If $Q$ and $Q'$ are primes of $L$ lying over $P$ then

Can we say that $L/K$ is Galois extension ?

Yes - this must follow from the arguments in Lenstra's and Stevenhagen's article on the Chebotarev density theorem. Since density arguments are involved, you may even drop condition 1 since it concerns only finitely many primes. got to run now . . . – Oct 04 '16 at 08:31
