The palindromic index - A measure of ambiguous cycles of reduced ideals without any ambiguous ideals in real quadratic orders
Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux, Tome 7 (1995) no. 2, pp. 447-460.

Herein we introduce the palindromic index as a device for studying ambiguous cycles of reduced ideals with no ambiguous ideal in the cycle.

Classification : 11R11, 11R29, 11R65
