The [[ring of integers]] of a [[number field]] is termed '''norm-Euclidean''' if it is a [[Euclidean domain]] where the norm is given by the usual [[norm in a ring of integers]]. In other words, the norm is the product of all algebraic conjugates, counted to the correct multiplicity.

This article defines a property that can be evaluated for a ring of integers in a number field

Definition

The ring of integers of a number field is termed norm-Euclidean if the absolute value of the algebraic norm is a Euclidean norm.

Since the norm in a ring of integers is multiplicative, norm-Euclidean rings possess multiplicative Euclidean norms.
