contents Dirichlet's Lemma states that every primitive quadratic Dirichlet character $χ$ can be written in the form $χ(n) = (\fracΔn)$ for a suitable quadratic discriminant $Δ$. In this article we define a group, the separant class group, that measures the extent to which Dirichlet's Lemma fails in general number fields $F$. As an application we will show that over fields with trivial separant class groups, genus theory of quadratic extensions can be made as explicit as over the rationals.
