Review text

In Part I [ibid. 69, 45-48 (1993; Zbl 0795.11056)], the author gave a criterion for an arbitrary order to have class group generated by ambiguous ideals and also made a conjecture related to that criterion. Afterwards, however, counterexamples to the conjecture were found [cf. Part III, ibid. 70, 176-181 (1994; Zbl 0809.11064)]. In this paper, he provides its revised version with a simple proof which gives a necessary and sufficient condition for the class group of a complex quadratic field to have exponent at most 2 in terms of the split primes less than the Minkowski bound.
