Let K be an algebraic number field with non-trivial class group G and K be its ring of integers. For k ∈ ℕ and some real x ≥ 1, let F k ( x ) denote the number of non-zero principal ideals a K with norm bounded by x such that a has at most k distinct factorizations into irreducible elements. It is well known that F k ( x ) behaves for x → ∞ asymptotically like x ( l o g x ) 1 - 1 / | G | ( l o g l o g x ) k ( G ) . We prove, among other results, that ( C n C n ) = n + n for all integers n₁,n₂ with 1 < n₁|n₂.

For k ∈ ℕ and some real x ≥ 1, let $F_k(x)$ denote the number of non-zero principal ideals $a_K$ with norm bounded by x such that a has at most k distinct factorizations into irreducible elements. It is well known that $F_k(x)$ behaves for x → ∞ asymptotically like $x(log x)^{1-1/|G|} (log log x)^{_k (G)}$.
