Let $f$ be a positive definite ternary quadratic form. We assume that $f$ is non-classic integral, that is, the norm ideal of $f$ is $\z$. We say $f$ is {\it strongly $s$-regular } if the number of representations of squares of integers by…

In this paper we generalize the idea of "essentially unique" representations by ternary quadratic forms. We employ the Siegel formula, along with the complete classification of imaginary quadratic fields of class number less than or equal…

In 1997, Y. Ohno empirically stumbled on an astoundingly simple identity relating the number of cubic rings $h(D)$ of a given discriminant $D$, over the integers, to the number of cubic rings $h'(D)$ of discriminant $-27D$ in which every…

Let $D\equiv 1\bmod{4}$ be a fundamental discriminant of a real quadratic field. We construct an analogue of the classical Dedekind eta function for the Hecke group $H(\sqrt{D})$. This gives rise to a new family of holomorphic modular…

Clemm and Trebat-Leder (2014) proved that the number of quadratic number fields with absolute discriminant bounded by $x$ over which there exist elliptic curves with good reduction everywhere and rational $j$-invariant is $\gg…

Let n be an odd number and F an imaginary quadratic field with odd discriminant. We show that there exists infinitely many cubic fields K such that the class number of K is divisible by n and the Galois closure of K contains F.

We prove several results about integers represented by positive definite quadratic forms, using a Fourier analysis approach. In particular, for an integer $\ell\geq 1$, we improve the error term in the partial sums of the number of…

Let $f$ be a primitive positive definite integral binary quadratic form of discriminant $-D$ and let $\pi_f(x)$ be the number of primes up to $x$ which are represented by $f$. We prove several types of upper bounds for $\pi_f(x)$ within a…

Let $C$ be a genus $2$ curve with Jacobian isomorphic to the square of an elliptic curve with complex multiplication by a maximal order in an imaginary quadratic field of discriminant $-d<0$. We show that if the stable model of $C$ has bad…

H. J. S. Smith proved Fermat's two-square theorem using the notion of palindromic continuants. In this paper we extend Smith's approach to proper binary quadratic form representations in some commutative Euclidean rings, including rings of…

We fill the gaps in A. Gica's determination of all the odd positive integers $d$ for which the number of distinct prime divisors of $f_d(x)=d+x^2$ is less than or equal to $2$ for all the positive and odd integers $x\leq\sqrt{d}$. We also…

A positive quadratic form is $(k,\ell)$-universal if it represents all the numbers $kx+\ell$ where $x$ is a non-negative integer, and almost $(k,\ell)$-universal if it represents all but finitely many of them. We prove that for any $k,\ell$…

We improve a result of H. L. Montgomery and J. P. Weinberger by establishing the existence of infinitely many fundamental discriminants $d>0$ for which the class number of the real quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ exeeds…

We find bases for the spaces $M_2\Big(\Gamma_0(24),\Big(\frac{d}{\cdot}\Big)\Big)$ ($d=1,8,12, 24$) of modular forms. We determine the Fourier coefficients of all $35$ theta products $\varphi[a_1,a_2,a_3,a_4](z)$ in these spaces. We then…

It is shown that the class number for negative discriminant $D$ can be expressed in terms of the base $B$ expansions of reduced fractions $\frac{x}{|D|}$, where $B$ is an integer prime to $D$. This result is then formulated to obtain…

We investigate generalized quadratic forms with values in the set of rational integers over quadratic fields. We characterize the real quadratic fields which admit a positive definite binary generalized form of this type representing every…

A (positive definite and integral) quadratic form $f$ is said to be $\textit{universal}$ if it represents all positive integers, and is said to be $\textit{primitively universal}$ if it represents all positive integers primitively. We also…

We introduce a new approach for generating combinatorial identities and formulas by the application of Kronecker substitution to polynomial expansions within quotient rings. Our main result enables the derivation of elementary arithmetic…

Here we constructively classify quadratic $d$-numbers: algebraic integers in quadratic number fields generating Galois-invariant ideals. We prove the subset thereof maximal among their Galois conjugates in absolute value is discrete in…

Let $h(d)$ be the class number of indefinite binary quadratic forms of discriminant $d$, and let $\varepsilon_d$ be the corresponding fundamental unit. In this paper, we obtain an asymptotic formula for the $k$-th moment of $h(d)$ over…
