The main purpose of this paper is to find all the prime numbers p for which whenever we add to p an odd square less than p we obtain a number which has at most two different prime factors. We solve completely the cases $p\equiv 1,3,5 \pmod…
In contrast to the fact that there are only finitely many maximal arithmetic reflection groups acting on the hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^n$, $n\geq 2$, we show that: (a) one can produce infinitely many maximal quasi-arithmetic reflection…
A. Weil identified a 2-dimensional space of rational classes of Hodge type (n,n) in the middle cohomology of every 2n-dimensional abelian variety with a suitable complex multiplication by an imaginary quadratic number field. These abelian…
Given elliptic modular forms f and g satisfying certain conditions on their weights and levels, we prove (a quantitative version of the statement) that there exist infinitely many imaginary quadratic fields K and characters chi of the ideal…
Suppose $E$ is an elliptic curve defined over $\Q$. At the 1983 ICM the first author formulated some conjectures that propose a close relationship between the explicit class field theory construction of certain abelian extensions of…
We prove that there exist infinitely many elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}(i)$ with $j$-invariant $1728$ and rank exactly $2$ which are not obtained by base change from $\mathbb{Q}$. The rank of each such curve is determined via 2-isogeny…
Let $d$ be an odd square-free integer, $m\geq 3$ any integer and $L_{m, d}:=\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{2^m},\sqrt{d})$. In this paper, we shall determine all the fields $L_{m, d}$ having an odd class number. Furthermore, using the cyclotomic…
Let $C$ be a hyperelliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$, whose Weierstrass points are defined over extensions of $\mathbb{Q}$ of degree at most three, and at least one of them is rational. Generalizing a result of R. Soleng (in the case…
Iizuka's conjecture predicts that, given $m \in \mathbb{N}$ and a prime $p$, there exists infinitely many integers $n$ such that the class numbers of \textit{all} of the following quadratic number fields, \[ \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{n}),\…
In this article, we study necessary conditions for certain square-free integers to be congruent numbers. Our method uses divisibility properties of class numbers of related imaginary quadratic fields. We first consider positive square-free…
In this paper, we prove that there are infinitely many primes of the form $\ell^2 - \ell m + m^2$ such that $2\ell - m$ is also prime. To prove this, we follow along the lines of the work of Fouvry and Iwaniec (1997) who showed that there…
The main result is to show that if $K \ncong \mathbb Q(\sqrt{-15})$ is an imaginary quadratic field and $E$ is an elliptic curve over $K$ with a torsion point of order 16, then the class number of $K$ is divisible by 10. This gives an…
We study the gaps between products of two primes in imaginary quadratic number fields using a combination of the methods of Goldston-Graham-Pintz-Yildirim \cite{GGPY}, and Maynard \cite{MAY}. An important consequence of our main theorem is…
We construct Eisenstein cocycles for arithmetic subgroups of GL_2 of imaginary quadratic fields valued in second K-groups of products of two CM elliptic curves. We use these to construct maps from the first homology groups of Bianchi spaces…
We show that all spin groups of non-definite, quinary quadratic forms over a field with characteristic 0 can be represented as 2 by 2 matrices with entries in an associated quaternion algebra. Over local and global fields, we further study…
We compute the $3$-class groups $A_n$ of the fields $F_n$ in the cyclotomic $\mathbf{Z}_3$-extensions of the real quadratic fields of discriminant $f<100,000$. In all cases the orders of $A_n$ remain bounded as $n$ goes to infinity. This is…
The P\'{o}lya group $Po(K)$ of an algebraic number field $K$ is the subgroup of the ideal class group $Cl_{K}$ generated by the ideal classes of the products of prime ideals of the same norm. If $Po(K)$ is trivial, then the number field $K$…
We provide an infinite family of quadratic number fields with everywhere unramified Galois extensions of Galois group $SL_2(7)$. To my knowledge, this is the first instance of infinitely many such realizations for a perfect group which is…
We generate ring class fields of imaginary quadratic fields in terms of the special values of certain eta-quotients, which are related to the relative norms of Siegel-Ramachandra invariants. These give us minimal polynomials with relatively…
We prove that each infinite 2-group with a unique 2-element subgroup is isomorphic either to the quasicyclic 2-group or to the infinite group of generalized quaternions.
