Let $(K,\nu )$ be a valued field, where $\nu$ is a rank one discrete valuation. Let $R$ be its ring of valuation, $𝔪$ its maximal ideal, and $L$ an extension of $K$, defined by a monic irreducible polynomial $F\left(X\right)\in R\left[X\right]$. Assume that $\overline{F}\left(X\right)$ factors as a product of $r$ distinct powers of monic irreducible polynomials. In this paper a condition which guarantees the existence of exactly $r$ distinct valuations of $K$ extending $\nu$ is given, in such a way that it generalizes the results given in the paper “Prolongations of valuations to finite...

Let $K$ be a number field defined by an irreducible polynomial $F\left(X\right)\in \mathbb{Z}\left[X\right]$ and ${\mathbb{Z}}_K$ its ring of integers. For every prime integer $p$, we give sufficient and necessary conditions on $F\left(X\right)$ that guarantee the existence of exactly $r$ prime ideals of ${\mathbb{Z}}_K$ lying above $p$, where $\overline{F}\left(X\right)$ factors into powers of $r$ monic irreducible polynomials in ${𝔽}_p\left[X\right]$. The given result presents a weaker condition than that given by S. K. Khanduja and M. Kumar (2010), which guarantees the existence of exactly $r$ prime ideals of ${\mathbb{Z}}_K$ lying above $p$. We further specify...

Let $K=\mathbb{Q}\left(\alpha \right)$ be a number field generated by a complex root $\alpha$ of a monic irreducible polynomial $f\left(x\right)=x^{18}-m$, $m\ne \mp 1$, is a square free rational integer. We prove that if $m\equiv 2$ or $3(\mathrm{mod}4)$ and $m\neg \equiv \mp 1(\mathrm{mod}9)$, then the number field $K$ is monogenic. If $m\equiv 1(\mathrm{mod}4)$ or $m\equiv 1(\mathrm{mod}9)$, then the number field $K$ is not monogenic.
