In this paper, we introduce the notion of unit reducibility for number fields, that is, number fields in which all positive unary forms attain their nonzero minimum at a unit. Furthermore, we investigate the link between unit reducibility…

Positive and negative quadratic forms are well known and widely used. They are multivariate homogeneous polynomials of degree two taking positive or negative values respectively for any values of their arguments not all zero. In the present…

In his work about Galois representations, Greenberg conjectured the existence, for any odd prime p and any positive integer t, of a multiquadratic p-rational number field of degree 2 t. In this article, we prove that there exists infinitely…

In this paper, we investigate the unit groups, the $2$-class groups, the $2$-class field towers and the structures of the second $2$-class groups of some multiquadratic number fields of degree $8$ and $16$.

We consider the signatures $\Sigma_m=(0,1,-,+, \cdot, \ ^{-1})$ of meadows and $(\Sigma_m, {\mathbf s})$ of signed meadows. We give two complete axiomatizations of the equational theories of the real numbers with respect to these…

A real symmetric matrix $M$ is completely positive semidefinite if it admits a Gram representation by (Hermitian) positive semidefinite matrices of any size $d$. The smallest such $d$ is called the (complex) completely positive semidefinite…

We consider univariate real polynomials with all roots real and with two sign changes in the sequence of their coefficients which are all non-vanishing. One of the changes is between the linear and the constant term. By Descartes' rule of…

Suppose $f(x,y)$ is a binary form of degree $d$ with coefficients in a field $K \subseteq \mathbb C$. The $K$-rank of $f$ is the smallest number of $d$-th powers of linear forms over $K$ of which $f$ is a $K$-linear combination. We prove…
