Abstract

Let K/F be a finite extension of number fields of degree n2. We establish effective field-uniform unconditional upper bounds for the least norm of a prime ideal 𝔭 of F which is degree 1 over and does not ramify or split completely in K. We improve upon the previous best known general estimates due to Li [7] when F=, and Murty and Patankar [9] when K/F is Galois. Our bounds are the first when K/F is not assumed to be Galois and F.
