Hasse norm principle for metacyclic extensions with trivial Schur multiplier

Abstract

Let kk be a global field, K/kK/k be a finite separable field extension and L/kL/k be the Galois closure of K/kK/k with Galois groups G=Gal(L/k)G={\rm Gal}(L/k) and H=Gal(L/K)GH={\rm Gal}(L/K)\lneq G. In 1931, Hasse proved that if GG is cyclic, then the Hasse norm principle holds for K/kK/k. We show that if GG is metacyclic with trivial Schur multiplier M(G)=0M(G)=0, then HH is cyclic and the Hasse norm principle holds for K/kK/k. Some examples of metacyclic, dihedral, quasidihedral, modular, generalized quaternion, extraspecial groups and ZZ-groups GG with trivial Schur multiplier M(G)=0M(G)=0 are given. These provide new examples which the Hasse norm principle hold for non-Galois extensions K/kK/k whose Galois closure is L/kL/k with metacyclic G=Gal(L/k)G={\rm Gal}(L/k) and M(G)=0M(G)=0.
