In this paper, we investigate the unit groups, the $2$-class groups, the $2$-class field towers and the structures of the second $2$-class groups of some multiquadratic number fields of degree $8$ and $16$.

Let $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[4]{pd^{2}})$ be a real pure quartic number field and $k=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{p})$ its real quadratic subfield, where $p\equiv 5\pmod 8$ is a prime integer and $d$ an odd square-free integer coprime to $p$. In this work,…

This article is the first in a series devoted to computing the class groups of real quadratic fields. We present a new relation between the class number and the index of unit groups. This relation generalizes Hilbert class field theory for…

For any distinct two primes $p_1\equiv p_2\equiv 3$ $(\text{mod }4)$, let $h(-p_1)$, $h(-p_2)$ and $h(p_1p_2)$ be the class numbers of the quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-p_1})$, $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-p_2})$ and…

The P\'{o}lya group $Po(K)$ of an algebraic number field $K$ is the subgroup of the ideal class group $Cl_{K}$ generated by the ideal classes of the products of prime ideals of the same norm. If $Po(K)$ is trivial, then the number field $K$…

We propose a method for determining which integers can be written as a sum of two integral squares for quadratic fields $\Q(\sqrt{\pm p})$, where $p$ is a prime.

Kuroda's formula relates the class number of a multi-quadratic number field $K$ to the class numbers of its quadratic subfields $k_i$. A key component in this formula is the unit group index $Q(K) = [\mathcal{O}_{K}^{\times}:…

A formula for the class number $h$ of the imaginary quadratic field $Q(\sqrt{-p}$ is obtained by counting on a specific way the quadratic residues of a prime number of the form $p=4n-1.$ Formulas for the sum of the quadratic residues are…

Let us consider the pure quartic fields of the form $\K=\Q(\sqrt[4]{p})$ where $0<p\equiv 7\pmod{16}$ is a prime integer. We prove that the $2$-class group of $\K$ has order $2$. As a consequence of this, if the class number of $\K$ is $2$,…

Let $p$ be a prime. The $2$-primary part of the class group of the pure quartic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[4]{p})$ has been determined by Parry and Lemmermeyer when $p \not\equiv \pm 1\bmod 16$. In this paper, we improve the known results in…

Let $a\geq 1$ and $n>1$ be odd integers. For a given prime $p$, we prove under certain conditions that the class groups of imaginary quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{a^2-4p^n})$ have a subgroup isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$. We…

We investigate the class number one problem for a parametric family of real quadratic fields of the form $\mathbb{Q}( \sqrt{m^2+4r})$ for certain positive integers $m$ and $r$.
