    Let \(K=\mathbb{Q}(\omega)\), \(\omega= e^{2\pi i\over 3}\), \(p\) a rational prime \(p\equiv 1\pmod 3\) and \(\pi\) a primary element of \(\mathbb{Z} [\omega]\) dividing \(p\). \textit{C. R. Matthews} proved [Invent. Math. 54, 23-52 (1979; Zbl 0414.10036)] a conjecture of Cassels which relates the cubic Gauss sum of \(\omega\) as a product of special values of the Weierstrass \(\wp\)-function, which satisfies the differential equation \(\wp^{\prime^2} =4\wp^3-1\). The author of the paper under review proves a similar, like Matthews, formula for the cubic Gauss sum of elements of \(K\) which are a product of distinct primary primes.
