Abstract

Let K=Q(an)K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[n]{a}) be an extension of degree nn of the field \Q\Q of rational numbers, where the integer aa is such that for each prime pp dividing nn either pap\nmid a or the highest power of pp dividing aa is coprime to pp; this condition is clearly satisfied when a,na, n are coprime or aa is squarefree. The present paper gives explicit construction of an integral basis of KK along with applications. This construction of an integral basis of KK extends a result proved in [J. Number Theory, {173} (2017), 129-146] regarding periodicity of integral bases of Q(an)\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[n]{a}) when aa is squarefree.
