Abstract

For \(L/K\) a finite extension of algebraic number fields, L may or may not have a relative integral basis over K. We show the existence of relative integral basis of a biquadratic field \(L=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{m},\sqrt{n})\) over its quadratic subfield \(K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{m})\) is equivalent to that K is a Pólya field, or equivalently all strongly ambiguous ideal classes of K are trivial.
