Monogenic Cyclic Quartic Trinomials

Abstract: A monic polynomial $f(x)\in {\mathbb Z}[x]$ of degree $N$ is called monogenic if $f(x)$ is irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$ and ${1,\theta,\theta^2,\ldots ,\theta^{N-1}}$ is a basis for the ring of integers of ${\mathbb Q}(\theta)$, where $f(\theta)=0$. In this brief note, we prove that there exist exactly three distinct monogenic trinomials of the form $x^4+bx^2+d$ whose Galois group is the cyclic group of order 4.
