The determination of a pair of fundamental units in a totally real cubic field involves two operations—finding a pair of independent units (i.e. such that neither is a power of the other) and from these a pair of fundamental units (i.e. a pair ε1; ε2 such that every unit of the field is of the form with rational integral m, n). The first operation may be accomplished by exploring regions of the integral lattice in which two conjugates are small or else by factorizing small primes and comparing different factorizations—a trial-and-error method, but often a quick one. The second operation is accomplished by obtaining inequalities which must be satisfied by a fundamental unit and its conjugates and finding whether or not a unit exists satisfying these inequalities. Recently Billevitch ((1), (2)) has given a method, of the nature of an extension of the first method mentioned above, which involves less work on the second operation but no less on the first.

Let ε = ε1, with conjugates ε2, ε3, be a unit in a totally real cubic field, and let . Let ε be a unit for which T (ε) is least and let η be a unit, not a power of ε, for which T(η) is least. It was shown by Cusick[l] that ε,η form a pair of fundamental units under certain conditions. The purpose of the present note is to show that these conditions are unnecessary and that ε, η form a pair of fundamental units in all cases.

This paper improves a method of Godwin (4) for finding a pair of fundamental units in a totally real cubic field. The determination of such a unit pair is a well known computational problem. There is an old algorithm (circa 1896) of Voronoi which solves this problem, but the algorithm is quite complicated (an account of it is given in the book of Delone and Faddeev ((3), chapter IV, part A)). The method of Godwin is, in principle, much simpler. However, this method also has its drawbacks (more is said about this in Section 4 below). Indeed, when Godwin's student Angell produced his large table (see (1)) of totally real cubic fields some 15 years after (4) appeared, Voronoi's algorithm was used to compute the pairs of fundamental units.

In a previous paper (2) it was shown how the work of finding the units of a totally real cubic field could be facilitated by consideration of the sum of squares of differences between a number and its conjugates. In the present paper it is shown that the same ideas can be helpful in the calculation of class-numbers, and a list of the fields with class-number greater than unity and discriminant less than 20,000 is given.
