Abstract

Let Γ=Q(n3)\Gamma=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{n}) be a pure cubic field with normal closure k=Q(n3,ζ)k=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[3]{n},\zeta), where n>1n>1 denotes a cube free integer, and ζ\zeta is a primitive cube root of unity. Suppose kk possesses an elementary bicyclic 33-class group Cl3(k)\mathrm{Cl}_3(k), and the conductor of k/Q(ζ)k/\mathbb{Q}(\zeta) has the shape f{pq1q2,3pq,9pq}f\in\lbrace pq_1q_2,3pq,9pq\rbrace where p1(mod9)p\equiv 1\,(\mathrm{mod}\,9) and q,q1,q22,5(mod9)q,q_1,q_2\equiv 2,5\,(\mathrm{mod}\,9) are primes. It is disproved that there are only two possible capitulation types ϰ(k)\varkappa(k), either type a.1\mathrm{a}.1, (0000)(0000), or type a.2\mathrm{a}.2, (1000)(1000). Evidence is provided, theoretically and experimentally, of two further types, b.10\mathrm{b}.10, (0320)(0320), and d.23\mathrm{d}.23, (1320)(1320).
