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}),\…
Deciding whether or not two polynomials have isomoprhic splitting fields over the rationals is the Field Isomorphism Problem. We consider polynomials of the form $f_n(x) = x^4-nx^3-6x^2+nx+1$ with $n \neq 3$ a positive integer and we let…
We study the capitulation of $2$-ideal classes of an infinite family of imaginary bicyclic biquadratic number fields consisting of fields $\mathbf{k} =\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{p_1p_2q}, i)$, where $i=\sqrt{-1}$ and $p_1\equiv p_2\equiv-q\equiv1…
We study the capitulation of $2$-ideal classes of an infinite family of imaginary biquadratic number fields consisting of fields $k =Q(\sqrt{pq_1q_2}, i)$, where $i=\sqrt{-1}$ and $q_1\equiv q_2\equiv-p\equiv-1 \pmod 4$ are different…
Let ${\{K_m\}_{m\geq 4}}$ be the family of non-normal totally real cubic number fields defined by the irreducible cubic polynomial $f_m(x)=x^3-mx^2-(m+1)x-1$, where $m$ is an integer with $m\geq 4$. In this paper, we will give a class…
Let $K$ be a complex bi-quadratic field with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_{K}$. For $K = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-m}$, $\sqrt{n}$), where $ m \equiv 3 \pmod 4 $ and $ n \equiv 1 \pmod 4$, we prove that every algebraic integer can be written as…
Let $R$ be a polynomial ring in $N$ variables over an arbitrary field $K$ and let $I$ be an ideal of $R$ generated by $n$ polynomials of degree at most 2. We show that there is a bound on the projective dimension of $R/I$ that depends only…
In this paper we give an elementary proof of results on the structure of 4-class groups of real quadratic number fields originally due to A. Scholz. In a second (and independent) section we strengthen C. Maire's result that the 2-class…
A positive square-free integer is called a \textit{congruent number} if it arises as the area of a right triangle with rational side lengths. Let $ n = p_1p_2 \cdots p_t q $ be a square-free integer, where each $ p_i \equiv 1 \pmod{8} $ and…
For fixed $q\in\{3,7,11,19, 43,67,163\}$, we consider the density of primes $p$ congruent to $1$ modulo $4$ such that the class group of the number field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-qp})$ has order divisible by $16$. We show that this density is…
Let $K$ be a number field and $\mathfrak{p} \mid (2)$ be a prime ideal. We compute the fourth level of the $\mathfrak{p}$-adic completions of $K$ when the ramification index is $4$ and the inertial degree is trivial for the ideal…
In this paper, we study the symmetric rank of products of linear forms and an irreducible quadratic form. The main result presents a new, non-trivial lower bound for the rank, and the arguments rely on the apolarity lemma. In the special…
Suppose that $ m\equiv 1\mod 4 $ is a prime and that $ n\equiv 3\mod 4 $ is a primitive root modulo $ m $. In this paper we obtain a relation between the class number of the imaginary quadratic field $ \Q(\sqrt{-nm}) $ and the digits of the…
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field of discriminant $d_K$, and let $\mathfrak{n}$ be a nontrivial integral ideal of $K$ in which $N$ is the smallest positive integer. Let $\mathcal{Q}_N(d_K)$ be the set of primitive positive definite…
We prove that there are >>X^{1/30}/(log X) imaginary quadratic number fields with an ideal class group of 3-rank at least 5 and discriminant bounded in absolute value by X. This improves on an earlier result of Craig, who proved the…
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field and $\mathcal{O}$ be an order in $K$. We construct class fields associated with form class groups which are isomorphic to certain $\mathcal{O}$-ideal class groups in terms of the theory of canonical…
Let $N(n)$ denote the number of isomorphism types of groups of order $n$. We consider the integers $n$ that are products of at most $4$ not necessarily distinct primes and exhibit formulas for $N(n)$ for such $n$.
Suppose $F=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-p_1\dotsm p_t})$ is an imaginary quadratic number field with distinct primes $p_1,\dots,p_{t}$, where $p_i\equiv 1\pmod{4}$ ($i=1,\dots,t-1$) and $p_t\equiv 3\pmod{4}$. We express the possible values of the…
We consider families of number fields of degree 4 whose normal closures over $\mathbb{Q}$ have Galois group isomorphic to $D_4$, the symmetries of a square. To any such field $L$, one can associate the Artin conductor of the corresponding…
We provide an algorithm that, given any order $O$ in a quaternion algebra over a global field, computes representatives of all right equivalence classes of right $O$-ideals, including the non-invertible ones. The theory is developed for a…
