In this paper, we study partitions of totally positive integral elements $\alpha$ in a real quadratic field $K$. We prove that for a fixed integer $m \geq 1$, an element with $m$ partition exists in almost all $K$. We also obtain an upper…
We obtain criteria for the class number of certain Richaud-Degert type real quadratic fields to be 3. We also treat a couple of families of real quadratic fields of Richaud-Degert type that were not considered earlier, and obtain similar…
In this paper, we calculate the unit groups and the $2$-class numbers of the fields $ \mathbb{K}= \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{p_1}, \sqrt{p_2})$ and $ \mathbb{L}= \mathbb{Q}( \sqrt{-1},\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{p_1}, \sqrt{p_2})$, where $p_1$ and…
The number of non-isomorphic cubic fields L sharing a common discriminant d(L) = d is called the multiplicity m = m(d) of d. For an assigned value of d, these fields are collected in a multiplet M(d) = (L(1) ,..., L(m)). In this paper, the…
We investigate Diophantine definability and decidability over some subrings of algebraic numbers contained in quadratic extensions of totally real algebraic extensions of $\mathbb Q$. Among other results we prove the following. The big…
We study the capitulation of ideal classes in an infinite family of imaginary bicyclic biquadratic number fields consisting of fields $k =Q(\sqrt{2pq}, i)$, where $i=\sqrt{-1}$ and $p\equiv -q\equiv1 \pmod 4$ are different primes. For each…
Let $H= \mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{n} + {\zeta_{n}}^{-1})$ and $\ell$ be an odd prime such that $q \equiv 1 \pmod \ell$ for some prime factor $q$ of $n$. We get a bound on the $\ell$-rank of the class group of $H$(under some conditions) in terms of…
In this paper, we enumerate with signs the holomorphic maps between Real Riemann surfaces. We relate the signs and the numbers obtained to the Real Gromov-Witten theory of the target. For a finite group $G$ with a non-trivial morphism to…
We present an example of a subfield $\mathcal{F}\subset\mathbb{R}$ and a matrix $A$ whose conventional and nonnegative ranks equal five, but the nonnegative rank with respect to $\mathcal{F}$ equals six. In other words, $A$ can be…
We study totally positive definite quadratic forms over the ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$ of a totally real biquadratic field $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{m}, \sqrt{s})$. We restrict our attention to classical forms (i.e., those with all…
A (positive definite and non-classic integral) quadratic form is called strongly $s$-regular if it satisfies a strong regularity property on the number of representations of squares of integers. In this article, we prove that for any…
It is shown that the sum of class numbers of orders in totally complex quartic fields with no real quadratic subfield obeys an asymptotic law similar to the prime numbers, as the bound on the regulators tends to infinity. Here only orders…
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…
We study real ternary forms whose real rank equals the generic complex rank, and we characterize the semialgebraic set of sums of powers representations with that rank. Complete results are obtained for quadrics and cubics. For quintics we…
A number field $k$ admits a binary integral quadratic form which represents all integers locally but not globally if and only if the class number of $k$ is bigger than one. In this case, there are only finitely many classes of such binary…
How many natural numbers below $X$ can be written as a sum of $k$ units of the ring of integers of a given number field? We give the asymptotics as $X$ gets large for quadratic number fields. This solves a problem of Jarden and Narkiewicz…
We consider an analogue of Artin's primitive root conjecture for units in real quadratic fields. Given such a nontrivial unit, for a rational prime p which is inert in the field the maximal order of the unit modulo p is p+1. An extension of…
We construct an infinite family of imaginary bicyclic biquadratic number fields $k$ with the 2-ranks of their 2-class groups are $\geq3$, whose strongly ambiguous classes of $k/Q(i)$ capitulate in the absolute genus field $k^{(*)}$, which…
For certain real quadratic fields $K$ with sufficiently small discriminant we produce explicit unit generators for specific ray class fields of $K$ using a numerical method that arose in the study of complete sets of equiangular lines in…
There has been a recent surge of interest on distributions of shapes of unit lattices in number fields, due to both their applications to number theory and the lack of known results. In this work we focus on $D_4$-quartic fields with…
