Abstract:

Let $\mathbb {Q}\subseteq \mathcal {E}\subseteq \mathcal {F}$ be algebraic number fields and $M\subset \mathcal {F}$ a free $o\varepsilon$-module. We prove a theorem which enables us to determine whether a given relative norm equation of the form $|N_{\mathcal {F}/\mathcal {E}}(\eta )| = |\theta |$ has any solutions $\eta \in M$ at all and, if so, to compute a complete set of nonassociate solutions. Finally we formulate an algorithm using this theorem, consider its algebraic complexity and give some examples.
