Among abelian extensions of a congruence function field, an asymptotic relation of class number and genus is established. The proof is classical, employing well-known results from congruence function field theory.
Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field with discriminant $d_K\leq-7$. We deal with problems of constructing normal bases between abelian extensions of $K$ by making use of singular values of Siegel functions. First, we show that a…

Given a field K, a quadratic extension field L is an extension of K that can be generated from K by adding a root of a quadratic polynomial with coefficients in K. This paper shows how ACL2(r) can be used to reason about chains of quadratic…

In this paper, we describe the higher even $K$-groups of the ring of integers of a number field in terms of class groups of an appropriate extension of the number field in question. This is a natural extension of the previous collective…
We construct a graph of Kummer elements in a given cyclic algebra of prime degree and study its properties. In case of degree 5, we provide sufficient conditions for two elements to have a chain of Kummer elements connecting them, such that…

Let $p$ be an irregular prime. Let $K=\Q(\zeta)$ be the $p$-cyclotomic field. From Kummer and class field theory, there exist Galois extensions $S/\Q$ of degree $p(p-1)$ such that $S/K$ is a cyclic unramified extension of degree $[S:K]=p$.…
Let K/F be a cyclic extension of prime degree l over a number field F. If F has class number coprime to l, we study the structure of the l-Sylow subgroup of the class group of K. In particular, when F contains the l-th roots of unity, we…
Kummer's conjecture predicts the asymptotic growth of the relative class number of prime cyclotomic fields. We substantially improve the known bounds of Kummer's ratio under three scenarios: no Siegel zero, presence of Siegel zero and…
We derive an asymptotic formula which counts the number of abelian extensions of prime degrees over rational function fields. Specifically, let $\ell$ be a rational prime and $K$ a rational function field $\Bbb F_q(t)$ with $\ell \nmid q$.…
We construct Galois extensions of the T(n)-local sphere, lifting all finite abelian Galois extensions of the K(n)-local sphere. This is achieved by realizing them as higher semiadditive analogues of cyclotomic extensions. Combining this…
We study the arithmetic aspects of the finite group of extensions of abelian varieties defined over a number field. In particular, we establish relations with special values of L-functions and congruences between modular forms.
We give a construction of unramified cyclic octic extensions of certain complex quadratic number fields. The binary quadratic form used in this construction also shows up in the theory of 2-descents on Pell conics and elliptic curves, as…
We give necessary and sufficient conditions for the Kummer extension $K:=\mathbb{Q}\left(\zeta_n,\sqrt[n]{\alpha}\right)$ to be monogenic over $\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_n)$ with $\sqrt[n]{\alpha}$ as a generator, i.e., for…
The notion of a Kummer-faithful field, defined by Mochizuki, is expected as one of suitable base fields for anabelian geometry. In this paper, we study Kummer-faithfulness for algebraic extension fields of $p$-adic fields. We show that…
