(a) Factorise the ideals [2], [3] and [5] in the ring of integers OK of the field K=Q(30). Using Minkowski's bound
nnn!(π4)s∣dK∣,
determine the ideal class group of K.
[Hint: it might be helpful to notice that 23=NK/Q(α) for some α∈K.]
(b) Find the fundamental unit of K and determine all solutions of the equations x2−30y2=±5 in integers x,y∈Z. Prove that there are in fact no solutions of x2−30y2=5 in integers x,y∈Z.
