Counting ideals in ray classes

Abstract: Let

m a t h b f K

be a number field and

m a t h f r a k q

an integral ideal in

m a t h c a l O_{m a t h b f K}

. A result of Tatuzawa from 1973, computes the asymptotic (with an error term) for the number of ideals with norm at most

x

in a class of the narrow ray class group of

m a t h b f K

modulo

m a t h f r a k q

. This result bounds the error term with a constant whose dependence on

m a t h f r a k q

is explicit but dependence on

m a t h b f K

is not explicit. The aim of this paper is to prove this asymptotic with a fully explicit bound for the error term.
