Mayer's refinement of Scholz's conjecture for ramified dihedral cubic fields

About 7 years old · traced to

Let LL be a non-Galois totally real cubic field with ramified Galois closure NN over a real quadratic field KK, with conductor f>1f>1. Let UNU_N be the unit group of NN, let U0U_0 be the subgroup generated by the units of the proper subfields, and suppose NN is of type α\alpha, equivalently UN=U0U_N=U_0. Let TK,N:Cl⁡3(K)→Cl⁡3(N)T_{K,N}:\operatorname{Cl}_3(K)\to\operatorname{Cl}_3(N) be the transfer homomorphism of 33-classes, defined by

TK,N:a⋅PK⟼(aON)⋅PN.T_{K,N}:\mathfrak{a}\cdot\mathcal{P}_K\longmapsto(\mathfrak{a}\mathcal{O}_N)\cdot\mathcal{P}_N.

Write ss for the number of prime divisors of ff that split in KK, and let ϱ3(K)\varrho_3(K) denote the 33-class rank of KK.

Mayer's conjecture. Non-Galois totally real cubic fields with these properties should exist in each of the following situations: type α1\alpha_1 with dim⁡F3(ker⁡(TK,N))=2\dim_{\mathbb{F}_3}(\ker(T_{K,N}))=2, ϱ3(K)=2\varrho_3(K)=2, and s=0s=0; type α2\alpha_2 with dim⁡F3(ker⁡(TK,N))=1\dim_{\mathbb{F}_3}(\ker(T_{K,N}))=1, ϱ3(K)=1\varrho_3(K)=1, and s=1s=1; or type α3\alpha_3 with dim⁡F3(ker⁡(TK,N))=0\dim_{\mathbb{F}_3}(\ker(T_{K,N}))=0, ϱ3(K)=0\varrho_3(K)=0, and s=2s=2.

This refines Scholz's conjecture by predicting existence in three ramified cases distinguished by the capitulation-kernel dimension, the 33-class rank, and the number of split conductor primes. The source presents these as the three subtypes of type α\alpha.
