Irreducible elements in algebraic number fields

This dissertation is a study of two basic questions involving irreducible elements in algebraic number fields. The first question is: Given an algebraic integer β in a field with class number greater than two, how many different lengths of factorizations into irreducibles exist? The distribution int...
