Mayer's refinement of Scholz's conjecture for ramified cubic extensions

Let LL be a non-Galois totally real cubic field with ramified Galois closure NN, conductor f>1f>1 over a real quadratic field KK, and type α\alpha, with UN=U0U_N=U_0. Let TK,N:Cl3(K)Cl3(N)T_{K,N}:\operatorname{Cl}_3(K)\to\operatorname{Cl}_3(N) be the transfer homomorphism, defined by aPK(aON)PN\mathfrak{a}\cdot\mathcal{P}_K\mapsto(\mathfrak{a}\mathcal{O}_N)\cdot\mathcal{P}_N, and let ss count the prime divisors of ff that split in KK. Mayer's conjecture. Such fields should exist in each of the following situations: type α1\alpha_1 with dimF3(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 dimF3(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 dimF3(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 existence conjecture by specifying three ramified configurations of the unit and capitulation data; the supplied text gives no resolution status.
