Abstract

Let KK be a number field with ring of integers OK\mathcal{O}_K and let GG be a finite group. Given a GG-Galois KK-algebra KhK_h, let Oh\mathcal{O}_h denote its ring of integers. If Kh/KK_h/K is tame, then a classical theorem of E. Noether implies that Oh\mathcal{O}_h is locally free over OKG\mathcal{O}_KG and hence defines a class in the locally free class group of OKG\mathcal{O}_KG. For GG abelian, by combining the work of J. Brinkhuis and L. McCulloh, we prove that the structure of the collection of all such classes is related to the study of embedding problems.
