This paper studies Galois extensions over real quadratic number fields or cyclotomic number fields ramified only at one prime. In both cases, the ray class groups are computed, and they give restrictions on the finite groups that can occur…

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…

We generalize some results of Greither and Popescu to a geometric Galois cover $X\rightarrow Y$ which appears naturally for example in extensions generated by $\mathfrak{p}^n$-torsion points of a rank 1 normalized Drinfeld module (i.e. in…

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…

Let $k\geq 3$ and $n\geq 3$ be odd integers, and let $m\geq 0$ be any integer. For a prime number $\ell$, we prove that the class number of the imaginary quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{\ell^{2m}-2k^n})$ is either divisible by $n$ or by a…

In this article we establish two new results on quantitative Diophantine approximation for one-parameter families of diagonal ternary indefinite forms. In the first result, we consider quadratic forms taking values at prime points. In the…

In this article we show how the Dedekind-Hasse criterion may be applied to prove a simple result about quadratic number fields that usually is derived as a consequence of the theory of ideals and ideal classes.

The classical theorems relating integral binary quadratic forms and ideal classes of quadratic orders have been of tremendous importance in mathematics, and many authors have given extensions of these theorems to rings other than the…

In this note, we study linear determinantal representations of smooth plane cubics over finite fields. We give an explicit formula of linear determinantal representations corresponding to rational points. Using Schoof's formula, we count…

Recursive formulas are derived for the number of solutions of linear and quadratic Diophantine equations with positive coefficients. This result is further extended to general non-linear additive Diophantine equations. It is shown that all…

We show that the Siegel-Ramachandra invariants could be primitive generators of the ray class fields of imaginary quadratic fields. By using Shimura's reciprocity law we give a modern explanation of the solution of class number one problem…
