Caliber numbers of real quadratic fields

Number Theory 2011-11-30 v1

Abstract

We obtain lower bound of caliber number of real quadratic field K=\FQ(d)K=\FQ(\sqrt{d}) using splitting primes in KK. We find all real quadratic fields of caliber number 1 and find all real quadratic fields of caliber number 2 if dd is not 5 modulo 8. In both cases, we don't rely on the assumption on ζK(1/2)\zeta_K(1/2).
