    The authors obtain several results concerning the complexity of computations in quadratic number fields \(F\). Under the assumption of the generalized Riemann hypothesis they prove among other things that the following problems are in \(NP\cap \hbox{co-}NP\) for every order \(\mathcal O\) of \(F\): (i) Is a given ideal \(A\) of \(\mathcal O\) principal? (ii) Do given ideals \(A_ 1,\dots,A_ k\) of \(\mathcal O\) generate the class group?
