We show that the exponent of distribution of the sequence of squarefree numbers in arithmetic progressions of prime modulus is $\geq 2/3 + 1/57$, improving a result of Prachar from 1958. Our main tool is an upper bound for certain bilinear…
For every positive integer k, it is shown that there exists a positive definite diagonal quaternary integral quadratic form that represents all positive integers except for precisely those which lie in k arithmetic progressions. For k=1,…
We prove an asymptotic formula for squarefree in arithmetic progressions with squarefree moduli, improving previous results by Prachar. The main tool is an estimate for counting solutions of a congruence inside a box that goes beyond what…
An asymptotic formula for the variance of squarefree numbers in arithmetic progressions of given modulus was obtained by Nunes (see reference [3]). We improve one of the error terms.
We show how to construct unramified qoaternion extensions of quadratic number fields.
Define a natural number $n$ as a \textit{square-full} integer if for every prime $p$ such that $p|n$, we have $p^2|n$. In this paper, we establish an upper bound on the variance of square-full integers in short intervals of an expected…
For a given quadratic irrational $\alpha$, let us denote by $D(\alpha)$ the length of the periodic part of the continued fraction expansion of $\alpha$. We prove that for a positive integer $d$, which is not a perfect square, the sequence…
We generalise remarks of Euler and of Perron by explaining how to detail all quadratic irrational integers for which the symmetric part of the period of their continued fraction expansion commences with prescribed partial quotients. The…
There exists a particular subset of algebraic power series over a finite field which, for different reasons, can be compared to the subset of quadratic real numbers. The continued fraction expansion for these elements, called…
This is a survey article on the Hardy-Littlewood conjecture about primes in quadratic progressions. We recount the history and quote some results approximating this hitherto unresolved conjecture.
In this paper we are interested in the class numbers of a family of real quadratic fields for which the square roots of the discriminants have a known expansion in continued fraction. In particular we prove that $h(D)>1$, with possibly a…
Let S be a fixed symmetric finite subset of SL_d(O_K) that generates a Zariski dense subgroup of SL_d(O_K) when we consider it as an algebraic group over Q by restriction of scalars. We prove that the Cayley graphs of SL_d(O_K/I) with…
An open problem about finite geometric progressions in syndetic sets leads to a family of diophantine equations related to the commutativity of translation and multiplication by squares.
This note presents new results for the squarefree value sets of quartic polynomials over the integers.
In this paper, we improve the error term in a previous paper on an asymptotic formula for the number of squarefull numbers in an arithmetic progression.
We study Schur Q-polynomials evaluated on a geometric progression, or equivalently q-enumeration of marked shifted tableaux, seeking explicit formulas that remain regular at q=1. We obtain several such expressions as multiple basic…
We verify the Hardy-Littlewood conjecture on primes in quadratic progressions on average. The results in the present paper significantly improve those of a previous paper of the authors(arXiv:math.NT/0605563).
An exponent of distribution 1/16 is established for square-free palindromes. The main input is an upper bound for the number of palindromes, in arithmetic progressions to large moduli, divisible by large squares. Our argument combines a…
We study real quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{D})$ such that, for a given rational integer $m$, all $m$-multiples of totally positive integers are sums of squares. We prove quite sharp necessary and sufficient conditions for this to…
In this paper, we study additively indecomposable quadratic forms over real biquadratic and simplest cubic fields. In particular, we show that over these fields, we can always find such a classical form in 2 variables, which differs from…
