Abstract
Let be a square-free positive integer, . We show that the number field is non-monogene, that is it does not admit any power integral bases of type . In this infinite parametric family of Galois octic fields we construct an integral basis and show non-monogenity using only congruence considerations. Our method yields a new approach to consider monogenity or to prove non-monogenity in algebraic number fields. It is well applicable in parametric families of number fields. We calculate the index of elements as polynomials depending on the parameter, factor these polynomials and consider systems of congruences according to the factors.
