Even prime discriminants #
The prime discriminants are the fundamental discriminants divisible by exactly one prime: the
odd ones p* = (-1)^((p - 1) / 2) p, developed in
TauCeti.NumberTheory.Multiquadratic.Prime.Discriminant.Basic, and the three even ones treated
here. Each even prime discriminant is four times a squarefree radicand:
-4, represented by the squarefree radicand-1;8, represented by the squarefree radicand2;-8, represented by the squarefree radicand-2.
The quotient D / 4 is the radicand whose square root generates the same quadratic field
ℚ(√D). These are the 2-adic factors in the factorization of a fundamental discriminant into
prime discriminants.

The defining disjunction for IsEvenPrimeDiscriminant.
The squarefree radicand associated to an even prime discriminant. For D = -4, 8, -8
this gives respectively -1, 2, -2.
