Biquadratic fields having a non-principal euclidean ideal class

Abstract

H. W. Lenstra \cite{lenstra} introduced the notion of an Euclidean ideal class, which is a generalization of norm-Euclidean ideals in number fields. Later, families of number fields of small degree were obtained with an Euclidean ideal class (for instance, in \cite{hester1} and \cite{cathy}). In this paper, we construct certain new families of biquadratic number fields having a non-principal Euclidean ideal class and this extends the previously known families given by H. Graves \cite{hester1} and C. Hsu \cite{cathy}.
