文摘Suppose F = Q(√-p1 pt) is an imaginary quadratic number field with distinct primes p1,..., pt,where pi≡ 1(mod 4)(i = 1,..., t- 1) and pt ≡ 3(mod 4). We express the possible values of the 8-rank r8 of the class group of F in terms of a quadratic form Q over F2 which is defined by quartic symbols. In particular,we show that r8 is bounded by the isotropy index of Q.
