Abstract: Let k = Q (− m) be an imaginary quadratic field. We consider the properties of capitulation of the p -class group of k in the anti-cyclotomic Z p -extension k ac of k ; for this, using a new approach based on the Log p -function (Theorems 2.3, 3.4), we determine the first layer k 1 ac of k ac over k , and we show that some partial capitulation may exist in k 1 ac , even when k ac / k is totally ramified. We have conjectured that this phenomenon of capitulation is specific of the Z p -extensions of k , distinct from the cyclotomic one. For p = 3 , we characterize a sub-family of fields k (Normal Split cases) for which k ac is not linearly disjoint from the Hilbert class field (Theorem 5.1). No assumptions are made on the splitting of 3 in k and in k ⁎ = Q (3 m) , nor on the structures of their 3-class groups. Four pari/gp programs (7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4 depending on the classification of Definition 2.10) are given, computing a defining cubic polynomial of k 1 ac , and the main invariants attached to the fields k , k ⁎ , k 1 ac ; some relations with Iwasawa's invariants are discussed (Theorem 9.6).
