Abstract

Let \(k \,=\, \mathbb {Q}(\root 5 \of {n},\zeta _5)\), where n is a positive integer 5-th power-free, whose 5-class group denoted by \(C_{k,5}\) is isomorphic to \(\mathbb {Z}/5\mathbb {Z}\times \mathbb {Z}/5\mathbb {Z}\). Let \(k_0\,=\,\mathbb {Q}(\zeta _5)\) be the cyclotomic field containing a primitive 5-th root of unity \(\zeta _5\). Let \(C_{k,5}^{(\sigma )}\) be the group of ambiguous classes under the action of \(\mathrm{Gal}(k/k_0)\) = \(\langle \sigma \rangle \). The aim of this paper is to determine all naturals n such that the group of ambiguous classes \(C_{k,5}^{(\sigma )}\) has rank 1 or 2.
