Abstract :
[en] Let K be a number field, and let G be a finitely generated and torsion-free subgroup of K*. We consider Kummer extensions of G of the form K(\zeta_{2^m}, \sqrt[2^n]G)/K(\zeta_{2^m}), where n \leq m. In the paper "Reductions of algebraic integers" (J. Number Theory, 2016) by Debry and Perucca, the degrees of those extensions have been evaluated in terms of divisibility parameters over K(\zeta_4). We prove how properties of G over K explicitly determine the divisibility parameters over K(\zeta_4). This result has a clear computational advantage, since no field extension is required.
