The P\'olya group ${\rm Po}(K)$ of a number field $K$ is the subgroup of the ideal class group ${\rm Cl}(K)$ of $K$ generated by the classes of all the products of the prime ideals of $K$ with the same norm. Motivated by the classical "one…
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 $\ell \nmid q$.…
The class number divisibility problem for number fields is one of the classical problems in algebraic number theory, which originated from Gauss' class number conjectures. The relation between the points on an elliptic curve and class…
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…

Here we initiate a program to study relationships between finite groups and arithmetic-geometric invariants in a systematic way. To do this we first introduce a notion of optimal module for a finite group in the setting of holomorphic mock…
For each odd prime $p$, we prove the existence of infinitely many real quadratic fields which are $p$-rational. Explicit imaginary and real bi-quadratic $p$-rational fields are also given for each prime $p$. Using a recent method developed…
Let $\F_p$ be the field of residue classes modulo a large prime $p$. The present paper is devoted to the problem of representability of elements of $\F_p$ as sums of fractions of the form $x/y$ with $x,y$ from short intervals of $\F_p$.
In the paper, with the aid of the Fa\`a di Bruno formula, in terms of central factorial numbers of the second kind, and with the terminology of the Stirling numbers of the second kind, the authors derive several series expansions for any…
Using half-integral weight modular forms we give a criterion for the existence of real quadratic $p$-rational fields. For $p=5$ we prove the existence of infinitely many real quadratic $p$-rational fields.
We first study some families of maximal real subfields of cyclotomic fields with even class number, and then explore the implications of large plus class numbers of cyclotomic fields. We also discuss capitulation of the minus part and the…
We discuss the form of certain algebraic continued fractions in the field of power series over $F_p$, where p is an odd prime number. This leads to give explicit continued fractions in these fields, satisfying an explicit algebraic equation…
Let $n>1$ be an odd integer. We prove that there are infinitely many imaginary quadratic fields of the form $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{x^2-2y^n})$ whose ideal class group has an element of order $n$. This family gives a counter example to a…
Murty proved that for all sufficiently large $X$ there exist at least ${c(\ell,\eps) X^{1/{4\ell}-\eps}}$ real quadratic fields with class number divisible by $\ell$ and discriminant not exceeding $X$ in absolute value. We extend this this…

The number F(h) of imaginary quadratic fields with a given class number h is of classical interest: Gauss' class number problem asks for a determination of those fields counted by F(h). The unconditional computation of F(h) for h up to 100…

Let $p$ be a prime number. If a number field $k$ has at least one complex place, there are infinitely many $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions over $k$, and some authors studied the behavior of Iwasawa invariants of these $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extensions.…
