Abstract

Let θ\theta be a root of a monic polynomial h(x)Z[x]h(x) \in \Z[x] of degree n2n \geq 2. We say h(x)h(x) is monogenic if it is irreducible over \Q\Q and {1,θ,θ2,,θn1}\{ 1, \theta, \theta^2, \ldots, \theta^{n-1} \} is a basis for the ring ZK\Z_K of integers of K=\Q(θ)K = \Q(\theta). In this article, we study about the monogenity of number fields generated by a root of composition of two binomials. We characterise all the primes dividing the index of the subgroup Z[θ]\Z[\theta] in ZK\Z_K where K=\Q(θ)K = \Q(\theta) with θ\theta having minimal polynomial F(x)=(xmb)naZ[x]F(x) = (x^m-b)^n - a \in \Z[x], m1m\geq 1 and n2n \geq 2. As an application, we provide a class of pairs of binomials f(x)=xnaf(x)=x^n-a and g(x)=xmbg(x)=x^m-b having the property that both f(x)f(x) and f(g(x))f(g(x)) are monogenic.
