On the divisibility of the class numbers of quaternion orders

Number Theory 2022-10-12 v1

Abstract

Let FF be a number field, and DD be a quaternion FF-algebra. We show that the class number of any residually unramified OFO_F-order (e.g. an Eichler order) in DD is divisible by the class number of FF.
