The narrow Picard group of a number-field order #

The narrow Picard group identifies invertible fractional ideals only when they differ by a principal ideal with a totally positive generator. Forgetting positivity gives a canonical surjection onto the wide Picard group. The same construction for the maximal order is the narrow class group; here the fractional ideals belong to an arbitrary order and only its invertible ideals enter the quotient.

            The narrow principal class is the class of the corresponding principal fractional ideal.

            A principal narrow Picard class is trivial exactly when an order unit rescales its generator to a totally positive element.

            A totally positive element generates the trivial narrow Picard class.

            Every principal narrow Picard class has order dividing two, since a square is totally positive at every real place.

            Forgetting the positivity condition gives the canonical map from the narrow to the wide Picard group of an order.
