Let $n$ be a squarefree positive odd integer. We will show that there exist infinitely many imaginary quadratic number fields with discriminant divisible by $n$ and-at the same time-having an element of order $n$ in the class group. We then…
We construct a family of ideals representing ideal classes of order 2 in quadratic number fields and show that relations between their ideal classes are governed by certain cyclic quartic extensions of the rationals.
In this paper we study elimination of imaginaries in some classes of pure ordered abelian groups. For the class of ordered abelian groups with bounded regular rank (equivalently with finite spines) we obtain weak elimination of imaginaries…
A group is irreducibly represented if it has a faithful irreducible unitary representation. For countable groups, a criterion for irreducible representability is given, which generalises a result obtained for finite groups by W. Gasch\"utz…
We investigate the number ${\Cal F}(h)$ of imaginary quadratic fields with class number $h$. We establish an asymptotic formula for the average value of ${\Cal F}(h)$. We also establish a modest non-trivial upper bound for ${\Cal F}(h)$ and…
Very recently, Issa and Darrag [Arch. Math. (Basel) 123 (2024), no. 4, 379-383] determined partial Dedekind zeta values for certain ideal classes in the real quadratic fields of the form $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{9m^2+2m})$, where $9m^2+2m$ is…
We prove for each integer $\ell\geq 1$ an unconditional upper bound for the size of the $\ell$-torsion subgroup $Cl_K[\ell]$ of the class group of $K$, which holds for all but a zero density set of number fields $K$ of degree $d\in\{4,5\}$…
In this paper, we describe an algorithm that efficiently collect relations in class groups of number fields defined by a small defining polynomial. This conditional improvement consists in testing directly the smoothness of principal ideals…
We give a parametrization of square roots of the ideal class of the inverse different of rings defined by binary forms in terms of the orbits of a coregular representation. This parametrization, which can be construed as a new integral…
For a number field $K$, the Euler-Kronecker constant $\gamma_K$ associated to $K$ is an arithmetic invariant the size and nature of which is linked to some of the deepest questions in number theory. This theme was given impetus by Ihara who…
We improve Kolyvagin's upper bound on the order of the $p$-primary part of the Shafarevich-Tate group of an elliptic curve of rank one over a quadratic imaginary field. In many cases, our bound is precisely the one predicted by the Birch…
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 give an algebraic proof of a class number formula for dihedral extensions of number fields of degree $2q$, where $q$ is any odd integer. Our formula expresses the ratio of class numbers as a ratio of orders of cohomology groups of units…
We are concerned with mapping class groups of surfaces with nonempty boundary. We present a very natural method, due to Thurston, of finding many different left orderings of such groups. The construction involves equipping the surface with…
In this article we prove lower and upper bounds for class numbers of algebraic curves defined over finite fields. These bounds turn out to be better than most of the previously known bounds obtained using combinatorics. The methods used in…
Upper and lower bounds are given for the maximum Euclidean curvature among faces in Bianchi's fundamental polyhedron for $PSL_2(O)$ in the upper-half space model of hyperbolic space, where $O$ is an imaginary quadratic ring of integers with…
We analyse the complexity of the computation of the class group structure, regulator, and a system of fundamental units of a certain class of number fields. Our approach differs from Buchmann's, who proved a complexity bound of L(1/2,O(1))…
Let $K$ be a totally real number field of degree $n$ over $\mathbb{Q}$, with discriminant and regulator $\Delta_K, R_K$ respectively. In this paper, using a similar method to van Woerden, we prove that the number of classes of perfect unary…
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 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…
