The investigation of the ideal class group $Cl_K$ of an algebraic number field $K$ is one of the key subjects of inquiry in algebraic number theory since it encodes a lot of arithmetic information about K. There is a considerable amount of…

We study infinite groups interpretable in three families of valued fields: $V$-minimal, power bounded $T$-convex, and $p$-adically closed fields. We show that every such group $G$ has unbounded exponent and that if $G$ is dp-minimal then it…

Given a graded ideal $I$ in a polynomial ring over a field $K$ it is well known, that the number of distinct generic initial ideals of $I$ is finite. While it is known that for a given $d\in\N$ there is a global upper bound for the number…

Let $R$ be an infinite Dedekind domain with at most finitely many units, and let $K$ denote its field of fractions. We prove the following statement. If $L/K$ is a finite Galois extension of fields and $\mathcal{O}$ is the integral closure…

We remove the assumption "let p be odd or k totally imaginary" from several well-known theorems in Galois cohomology of number fields. For example, we show that the Galois group of the maximal extension of a number field k which is…

Let $p$ be an odd prime and $F$ be a number field whose $p$-class group is cyclic. Let $F_{\{\mathfrak{q}\}}$ be the maximal pro-$p$ extension of $F$ which is unramified outside a single non-$p$-adic prime ideal $\mathfrak{q}$ of $F$. In…

In his work about Galois representations, Greenberg conjectured the existence, for any odd prime p and any positive integer t, of a multiquadratic p-rational number field of degree 2 t. In this article, we prove that there exists infinitely…

Given an odd prime number $p$ and an imaginary quadratic field $K$, we establish a relationship between the $p$-rank of the class group of $K$, and the classical $\lambda$-invariant of the cyclotomic $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $K$.…

Let $h_{(m,k)}$ be the class number of $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{1-2m^k}).$ We prove that for any odd natural number $k,$ there exists $m_0$ such that $k \mid h_{(m,k)}$ for all odd $m > m_0.$ We also prove that for any odd $m \geq 3,$ $k \mid…

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 $2$,…

We provide an infinite family of quadratic number fields with everywhere unramified Galois extensions of Galois group $SL_2(7)$. To my knowledge, this is the first instance of infinitely many such realizations for a perfect group which is…

For a number field $K$, we consider $K^{\rm ta}$ the maximal tamely ramified algebraic extension of~$K$, and its Galois group $G^{\rm ta}_K= Gal(K^{ta}/K)$. Choose a prime $p$ such that $\mu_p \not \subset K$. Our guiding aim is to…

We classify all quadratic imaginary number fields that have a Euclidean ideal class. There are seven of them, they are of class number at most two, and in each case the unique class that generates the class-group is moreover norm-Euclidean.

For any positive integer $n$, we show that there exists a real number field $k$ (resp. $k'$) of degree $2^n$ whose $2$-class group is isomorphic $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}\times \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ such that the Galois group of the maximal…

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…

This paper proves that if $E$ is a field, such that the Galois group $\mathcal{G}(E(p)/E)$ of the maximal $p$-extension $E(p)/E$ is a Demushkin group of finite rank $r(p)_{E} \ge 3$, for some prime number $p$, then $\mathcal{G}(E(p)/E)$…

We investigate unramified extensions of number fields with prescribed solvable Galois group and certain extra conditions. In particular, we are interested in the minimal degree of a number field $K$, Galois over $\mathbb{Q}$, such that $K$…

In our previous paper we describe the Galois module structures of $p$th-power class groups $K^\times/{K^{\times p}}$, where $K/F$ is a cyclic extension of degree $p$ over a field $F$ containing a primitive $p$th root of unity. Our…

The proper Class $\bf{No}$ of all Conway's numbers $\cite{l3}$ is considered as a region of investigation. It turns out to be a total ordered Field (i.e., a field whose domain is a proper Class) and this totally, or linear ordered Class,…

We prove that there are >>X^{1/30}/(log X) imaginary quadratic number fields with an ideal class group of 3-rank at least 5 and discriminant bounded in absolute value by X. This improves on an earlier result of Craig, who proved the…
