Let $R$ be a commutative Noetherian ring and $D$ be a discrete Hodge algebra over $R$ of dimension $d>\text{dim}(R)$. Then we show that (i) the top Euler class group $E^d(D)$ of $D$ is trivial. (ii) if $d>\text{dim}(R)+1$, then $(d-1)$-st…

A collection $\mathcal S$ of equivalence classes of positive definite integral quadratic forms in $n$ variables is called an $n$-exceptional set if there exists a positive definite integral quadratic form which represents all equivalence…

For each odd prime p>=5, there exist finite p-groups G with derived quotient G/D(G)=C(p)xC(p) and nearly constant transfer kernel type k(G)=(1,2,...,2) having two fixed points. It is proved that, for p=7, this type k(G) with the simplest…

For each natural number $n$, we define a category whose objects are discriminant algebras in rank $n$, i.e. functorial means of attaching to each rank-$n$ algebra a quadratic algebra with the same discriminant. We show that the discriminant…

It is shown that when a real quadratic integer $\xi$ of fixed norm $\mu$ is considered, the fundamental unit $\varepsilon_d$ of the field $\mathbb{Q}(\xi) = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ satisfies $\log \varepsilon_d \gg (\log d)^2$ almost always.…

The P\'olya group ${\rm Po}(K)$ of a number field $K$ is the subgroup of the ideal class group ${\rm Cl}(K)$ of $K$ generated by the classes of all the products of the prime ideals of $K$ with the same norm. Motivated by the classical "one…

Assuming Generalized Riemann's Hypothesis, Bach proved that the class group $\mathcal C\!\ell_{\mathbf K}$ of a number field ${\mathbf K}$ may be generated using prime ideals whose norm is bounded by $12\log^2\Delta_{\mathbf K}$, and by…

For an algebraic number field $K$ with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_{K}$, an important subgroup of the ideal class group $Cl_{K}$ is the {\it P\'{o}lya group}, denoted by $Po(K)$, which measures the failure of the $\mathcal{O}_{K}$-module…

Let $K= \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ be a real quadratic field with $d$ having three distinct prime factors. We show that the $2$-class group of each layer in the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-extension of $K$ is $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ under certain elementary…

Caraiani and Newton have proven that if $F$ is an imaginary quadratic number field such that $X_0(15)$ has rank $0$ over $F$, then every elliptic curve over $F$ is modular. This paper is concerned with the quadratic fields…

Let Q be a non-singular quadratic form with integer coefficients. When Q is indefinite we provide new upper bounds for the least non-trivial integral solution to the equation Q=0. When Q is positive definite we provide improved upper bounds…

The number F(h) of imaginary quadratic fields with a given class number h is of classical interest: Gauss' class number problem asks for a determination of those fields counted by F(h). The unconditional computation of F(h) for h up to 100…

In this rather computational paper, we determine certain representation numbers of ideals in real quadratic number fields explicitly in order to obtain a representation of the associated Dirichlet series in terms of Dirichlet L-functions…

This paper gives a method to find all imaginary multiquadratic fields of class number dividing $2^{m},$ provided the list of all imaginary quadratic fields of class number dividing $2^{m+1}$ is known. We give a bound on the degree of such…

Let $K = \mathbb Q(\sqrt{-q})$, where $q$ is a prime congruent to $3$ modulo $4$. Let $A = A(q)$ denote the Gross curve over the Hilbert class field $H$ of $K$. In this note we use Magma to calculate the values $L(E/H, 1)$ for all such…

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…
