Abstract

In his work about Galois representations, Greenberg conjectured the existence, for any odd prime p and any positive integer t, of a multiquadratic p-rational number field of degree 2 t. In this article, we prove that there exists infinitely many primes p such that the triquadratic field Q(p(p + 2), p(p -- 2), i) is p-rational. To do this, we use an analytic result, proved apart in section \S4, providing us with infinitely many prime numbers p such that p + 2 et p -- 2 have ''big'' square factors. Therefore the related imaginary quadratic subfields Q(i \sqrt p + 2), Q(i \sqrt p -- 2) and Q(i (p + 2)(p -- 2)) have ''small'' discriminants for infinitely many primes p. In the spirit of Brauer-Siegel estimates, it proves that the class numbers of these imaginary quadratic fields are relatively prime to p, and so prove their p-rationality.
