We consider the problem of characterizing all number fields $K$ such that all algebraic integers $\alpha\in K$ can be written as the sum of distinct units of $K$. We extend a method due to Thuswaldner and Ziegler that previously did not…

Let $m$ be a square-free integer ($m\neq 0,\pm 1$). We show that the structure of the integral bases of the fields $K=Q(\sqrt[n]{m})$ are periodic in $m$. For $3\leq n\leq 9$ we show that the period length is $n^2$. We explicitly describe…

We consider partial torsion fields (fields generated by a root of a division polynomial) for elliptic curves. By analysing the reduction properties of elliptic curves, and applying the Montes Algorithm, we obtain information about the ring…

We describe an efficient algorithm to calculate generators of power integral bases in composites of totally real fields with imaginary quadratic fields. We show that the calculation can be reduced to solving index form equations in the…

Let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\omega)$ with $\omega$ the root of a degree $n$ monic irreducible polynomial $f\in\mathbb{Z}[X]$. We show the degree $n$ polynomial $N(\sum_{i=1}^{n-k}x_i\omega^{i-1})$ in $n-k$ variables formed by setting the final $k$…

Suppose that $f(x)=x^4+Ax^3+Bx^2+Ax+1\in {\mathbb Z}[x]$. We say that $f(x)$ is monogenic if $f(x)$ is irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$ and $\{1,\theta,\theta^2,\theta^3\}$ is a basis for the ring of integers of ${\mathbb Q}(\theta)$, where…

Let $\mathbb{Z}_K$ denote the ring of integers of the number field $K = \mathbb{Q}(\theta)$, where $\theta$ is a root of the monic irreducible polynomial $f(x) \in \mathbb{Z}[x]$. We say that $f(x)$ is monogenic if $\mathbb{Z}_K =…

We show that an order in a quartic field has fewer than $3000$ essentially different generators as a $\mathbb Z$-algebra (and fewer than $200$ if the discriminant of the order is sufficiently large). This significantly improves the…

Let K be a field and t>=0. Denote by Bm(t,K) the maximum number of non-zero roots in K, counted with multiplicities, of a non-zero polynomial in K[x] with at most t+1 monomial terms. We prove, using an unified approach based on Vandermonde…

One can define class invariants for a quartic primitive CM field K as special values of certain Siegel (or Hilbert) modular functions at CM points corresponding to K. We provide explicit bounds on the primes appearing in the denominators of…

Let $f(x)\in {\mathbb Z}[x]$ be a monic polynomial of degree $N$ that is irreducible over ${\mathbb Q}$. We say $f(x)$ is \emph{monogenic} if $\Theta=\{1,\theta,\theta^2,\ldots ,\theta^{N-1}\}$ is a basis for the ring of integers ${\mathbb…

Let $K = \Q(\theta)$ be an algebraic number field with $\theta$ satisfying an irreducible polynomial $x^{9} - a$ over the field $\Q$ of rationals and $\Z_K$ denote the ring of algebraic integers of $K$. In this article, we provide the exact…

Let $K$ be a number field with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$, and let $f(x)\in\mathcal{O}_K[x]$ be a monic, irreducible polynomial. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of the critical points of $f(x)$ for the…

We compute the Galois group of the splitting field $F$ of any irreducible and separable polynomial $f(x)=x^6+ax^3+b$ with $a,b\in K$, a field with characteristic different from two. The proofs require to distinguish between two cases:…

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…

Let $q\geqslant 2$ be a fixed prime power. We prove an asymptotic formula for counting the number of monic polynomials that are of degree $n$ and have exactly $k$ irreducible factors over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$. We also compare our…

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…

This article provides a simple trigonometric method for determining how many roots of a quartic equation are real and how many are complex, without solving the equation. The approach replaces the quartic's classical discriminant -- a…

Given a quintic number field $K/\mathbb{Q}$, we study the set of irreducible trinomials, polynomials of the form $x^{5} + ax + b$, that have a root in $K$. We show that there is a genus four curve $C_{K}$ whose rational points are in…
