An ideal $I$ in the ring of integers $\mathcal O$ of some number field factors into a product $I = P_1^{e_1} \cdots P_r^{e_r}$ of prime ideals. Hence, $$ \mathcal O/I \cong \prod \mathcal O/P_i^{e_i}. $$ So the question becomes: What is the structure of $\mathcal O/P^e$ where $P$ is a prime ideal? The additive and multiplicative structures of these rings are described in the following survey papers. > Elia, Interlando, Rosenbaum, [On the structure of residue rings of prime ideals in algebraic number fields Part I: unramified primes.][1] *Int.
