In this paper, for each prime number $p$ we compute the highest power of $p$ dividing the discriminant of $K$ in terms of the prime powers dividing $a,~b$ and discriminant of $f(x)$. An explicit $p$-integral basis of $K$ is also given for each prime $p$ and a method is described to obtain an integral basis of $K$ from these $p$-integral bases which is illustrated with examples.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-11-29T11:58:07.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11R04", "11R29" ], "keywords": [ "integral basis", "sextic fields", "discriminant", "algebraic number field", "prime number" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 46, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
