Prime decomposition in the anti-cyclotomic extension

For an imaginary quadratic number field and an odd prime number , the anti-cyclotomic -extension of is defined. For primes of , decomposition laws for in the anti-cyclotomic extension are given. We show how these laws can be applied to determine if the Hilbert class field (or part of it) of is -embeddable. For some and , we find explicit polynomials whose roots generate the first step of the anti-cyclotomic extension and show how the prime decomposition laws give nice results on the splitting of these polyniomials modulo . The article contains many numerical examples.
