Construction of pure cubic fields with large 2-class groups

From MaRDI portal





The author proves: There exist infinitely many cubic fields \(K_D=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{D/4})\) whose ideal class groups have 2-rank \(\ge 6\). He uses results of \textit{M. Craig} [Osaka J. Math. 14, 365--402 (1977; Zbl 0366.12007)] concerning a parametrization of the elliptic curve \(Y^2=4X^3+D\) with explicit polynomials in \(\mathbb{Z}[T]\): for suitable specializations, the curve admits 6 integral points \((x_i(t),y_i(t))\) such that the quadratic extensions \(K((sqrt{(D(t)/4)^{1/3}+x_ i(t)})/K\) (for \(K=K_{D(t)})\) are unramified. All the previous polynomials are explicitly given via the computer system ``REDUCE.
