%N Discriminants of real quadratic fields with class group C_2 and form class group C_2 X C_2.

%C Let Cl+(D) and Cl(D) be the narrow class group and the class group of the quadratic order of discriminant D. Then Cl+(D)/Cl(D) = 1 if D < 0 or D > 0 and the fundamental unit has norm -1, C_2 if D > 0 and the fundamental unit has norm 1.

%C For fundamental discriminants D, the 2-rank of Cl+(D) is omega(D) - 1, omega = A001221. Hence

%C Cl(D) = C_2 and Cl+(D) = C_2 X C_2 <=> Cl(D) = C_2 and omega(D) = 3.

%C Each term has a prime factor congruent to 3 modulo 4; see A391439 for a proof.
