Binomial squares in pure cubic number fields

Franz Lemmermeyer (2012)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Let K = ( ω ) , with ω 3 = m a positive integer, be a pure cubic number field. We show that the elements α K × whose squares have the form a - ω for rational numbers a form a group isomorphic to the group of rational points on the elliptic curve E m : y 2 = x 3 - m . This result will allow us to construct unramified quadratic extensions of pure cubic number fields K .
