We prove an asymptotic formula for class numbers of totlally imaginary quartic number fields, ie for number fields of degree 4 over Q with only complex embeddings. After previous work for real quadratic fields (Sarnak) and complex cubic…
The Postnikov character formula is used to express large portions of a Dirichlet character sum in terms of quadratic exponential sums. The quadratic sums are then computed using an analytic algorithm previously derived by the author. This…

In this paper, we introduce and study the Dirichlet series enumerating (proper) equivalence classes of full rank subforms/sublattices of a given quadratic form/lattice, focusing on the positive definite binary case. We obtain formulas…
In this paper, we construct infinitely many quadruples of real quadratic fields whose class numbers are all divisible by $3$. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first result towards the divisibility of the class numbers of certain…
For any integer $l\geq 1$, let $p_1, p_2, \ldots, p_{l+2}$ be distinct prime numbers $\geq 5.$ For all real numbers $X>1,$ we let $N_{3,l}(X)$ denote the number of real quadratic fields $K$ whose absolute discriminant $d_K\leq X$ and $d_K$…
In this paper, we obtain a formula for the special value of Euler-Dirichlet $L$-function $L_E(s,\chi)$ at $s=1$. This leads to another class number formula of $\mathbb{Q}(\mu_{m})^{+}$, the maximal real subfield of $m$th cyclotomic field.…

Given $c,$ a positive integer, we give an explicit formula and an asymptotic formula for \[ \sum\chi(c)|L(1,\,\chi)|^{2}, \] where $\chi$ is the non-trivial Dirichlet character mod $f$ with $f>c.$
Let $p$ be an odd prime number. In this article, we study the number of quadratic residues and non-residues modulo $p$ which are multiples of $2$ or $3$ or $4$ and lying in the interval $[1, p-1]$, by applying the Dirichlet's class number…
The Dedekind zeta function of a quadratic number field factors as a product of the Riemann zeta function and the $L$-function of a quadratic Dirichlet character. We categorify this formula using objective linear algebra in the abstract…
We construct, for imaginary quadratic number fields with class number 1, an arithmetic site of Connes-Consani type. The main difficulty here is that the constructions of Connes and Consani and part of their results strongly rely on the…
In this paper, we investigate the interplay between positive-definite integral ternary quadratic forms and class numbers. We generalize a result of Jones relating the theta function for the genus of a quadratic form to the Hurwitz class…
Let $\LL^+=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{pq}, \sqrt{ps})$ and $\LL=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{pq}, \sqrt{ps}, \sqrt{-\ell})$ be two fields, where $q$, $p$ and $s$ three different prime integers and $\ell\geq1$ be a positive odd square-free…
Murty proved that for all sufficiently large $X$ there exist at least ${c(\ell,\eps) X^{1/{4\ell}-\eps}}$ real quadratic fields with class number divisible by $\ell$ and discriminant not exceeding $X$ in absolute value. We extend this this…

We construct a random model to study the distribution of class numbers in special families of real quadratic fields $\mathbb Q(\sqrt d)$ arising from continued fractions. These families are obtained by considering periodic continued…
We consider Dirichlet $L$-functions $L(s, \chi)$ where $\chi$ is a non-principal quadratic character to the modulus $q$. We make explicit a result due to Pintz and Stephens by showing that $|L(1, \chi)|\leq \frac{1}{2}\log q$ for all $q\geq…
This paper gives explicit formulas for the formal total mass Dirichlet series for integer-valued ternary quadratic lattices of varying determinant and fixed signature over number fields F where p = 2 splits completely. We prove this by…
For a given positive integer $k$, we prove that there are at least $x^{1/2-o(1)}$ integers $d\leq x$ such that the real quadratic fields $\mathbb Q(\sqrt{d+1}),\dots,\mathbb Q(\sqrt{d+k})$ have class numbers essentially as large as…
