Abstract
It is proved that any algebraic integer a of degree n ≥2whose discriminant is a product of powers of prescribed primes p1, ..., pr has the form\(\alpha = a + \beta p_1^{\upsilon _1 } \ldots p_r ^{\upsilon _r }\), where α, V1, ..., vr are rational integers and β is an integer whose height does not exceed an effectively defined bound depending on max (p1, ..., pr), r, and n.
