We prove that in the function field setting, $\ell$-torsion in the class groups of quadratic fields can be arbitrarily large. In fact, we explicitly produce a family whose $\ell$-rank growth matches the growth in the setting of genus…
Given a global field K and a positive integer n, there exists an abelian extension L/K (of exponent n) such that the local degree of L/K is equal to n at every finite prime of K, and is equal to two at the real primes if n=2. As a…
We obtain upper bounds for the torsion in the $K$-groups of the ring of integers of imaginary quadratic number fields, in terms of their discriminants.
Let $K$ be a non-archimedean local field. We show that discrete subgroups without 2-torsion in $\mathrm{PSL}_2(K)$ can always be lifted to $\mathrm{SL}_2(K)$, and provide examples (when $\mathrm{char}(K) \neq 2$) which cannot be lifted if…
Let $G$ be a Frobenius group with an abelian Frobenius kernel $F$ and let $k$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}$. We obtain an upper bound for the number of degree $|F|$ algebraic extensions $K/k$ with Galois group $G$ with the norm of…
In this note, we provide an explicit upper bound for $h_K \mathcal{R}_K d_K^{-1/2}$ which depends on an effective constant in the error term of the Ideal Theorem.
Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p>0$ and $G$ a finite group. We provide a description of the torsion subgroup $TT(G)$ of the finitely generated abelian group $T(G)$ of endo-trivial $kG$-modules when $p=2$ and $G$…
Let $K$ be a non-cylotomic imaginary quadratic field of class number 1 and $E/K$ is an elliptic curve with $E(K)[2]\simeq \mathbb{Z}_1.$ We determine the odd-order torsion groups that can arise as $E(L)_{\text{tor}}$ where $L$ is a…
By focusing on the family $E:y^2=x^3+a$, we present strategies for determining the structure of the torsion subgroup of the Mordell-Weil group of an elliptic curve, $E(K)$, over quadratic field $K$. Generalizations of the Nagell-Lutz…
Let $K$ be a number field and $E/K$ be an elliptic curve with no $2$-torsion points. In the present article we give lower and upper bounds for the $2$-Selmer rank of $E$ in terms of the $2$-torsion of a narrow class group of a certain cubic…
In this paper we improve the upper bound of the number $N_{K, n}(X)$ of degree $n$ extensions of a number field $K$ with absolute discriminant bounded by $X$. This is achieved by giving a short $\mathcal{O}_K$-basis of an order of an…
Let $K$ be a number field. In the terminology of Nagell a unit $\varepsilon$ of $K$ is called {\it exceptional} if $1-\varepsilon$ is also a unit. The existence of such a unit is equivalent to the fact that the unit equation…
We determine the average size of the 3-torsion in class groups of $G$-extensions of a number field when $G$ is any transitive $2$-group containing a transposition, for example $D_4$. It follows from the Cohen--Lenstra--Martinet heuristics…
Let E be an elliptic curve over Q with prime conductor p. For each non-negative integer n we put K_n:=Q(E[p^n]). The aim of this paper is to estimate the order of the p-Sylow group of the ideal class group of K_n. We give a lower bounds in…

We prove a new lower bound on the Ramsey number $r(\ell, C\ell)$ for any constant $C > 1$ and sufficiently large $\ell$, showing that there exists $\varepsilon=\varepsilon(C)> 0$ such that \[ r(\ell, C\ell) \geq \left(p_C^{-1/2} +…
Let K denote the quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ where d=$-1$ or $-3$. Let E be an elliptic curve defined over K. In this paper, we analyze the torsion subgroups of E in the maximal elementary abelian $2$-extension of $K$.
