Proper continued fractions are generalized continued fractions with positive integer numerators $a_i$ and integer denominators with $b_i\geq a_i$. In this paper we study the strength of approximation of irrational numbers to their…

We establish effective bounds on the number of periodic points of degree-$d$ polynomials $\phi$ defined over $p$-adic fields and number fields, under a mild reduction hypothesis that is satisfied by all unicritical polynomials $X^d + c$…

Quadratic irrationals posses a periodic continued fraction expansion. Much less is known about cubic irrationals. We do not even know if the partial quotients are bounded, even though extensive computations suggest they might follow…

Finding polynomial solutions to Pell's equation is of interest as such solutions sometimes allow the fundamental units to be determined in an infinite class of real quadratic fields. In this paper, for each triple of positive integers…

In this article we prove lower and upper bounds for class numbers of algebraic curves defined over finite fields. These bounds turn out to be better than most of the previously known bounds obtained using combinatorics. The methods used in…

The modern theory of class field towers has its origins in the study of the p-class field tower over a quadratic imaginary number field, so it is fitting that this problem be the first in the discipline to be nearing a solution. We survey…

For a function field $K$ and fixed polynomial $F\in K[x]$ and varying $f\in F$ (under certain restrictions) we give a lower bound for the degree of the greatest prime divisor of $F(f)$ in terms of the height of $f$, establishing a strong…

The aim of this note is to show the existence of a correspondance between certain algebraic continued fractions in fields of power series over a finite field and automatic sequences in the same finite field. this connection is illustrated…

The moments of quadratic Dirichlet $L$-functions over function fields have recently attracted much attention with the work of Andrade and Keating. In this article, we establish lower bounds for the mean values of the product of quadratic…

In this note we classify two-dimensional continued fractions for cubic irrationalities constructed by matrices with not large norm ($|*| \le 6$). The classification is based on the following new result: the class of matrices with an…

We construct an infinite family of imaginary bicyclic biquadratic number fields $k$ with the 2-ranks of their 2-class groups are $\geq3$, whose strongly ambiguous classes of $k/Q(i)$ capitulate in the absolute genus field $k^{(*)}$, which…

This is the second in a series of two papers presenting a solution to Hilbert's 12th problem for real quadratic function fields in positive characteristic, in the sense of proving an analog of the Theorem of Weber-Fueter. We also offer a…

We present computational results on the divisor class number and the regulator of a cubic function field over a large base field. The underlying method is based on approximations of the Euler product representation of the zeta function of…

We consider continued fractions with partial quotients in the ring of integers of a quadratic number field $K$ and we prove a generalization to such continued fractions of the classical theorem of Lagrange. A particular example of these…

We prove an analog of Lagrange's Theorem for continued fractions on the Heisenberg group: points with an eventually periodic continued fraction expansion are those that satisfy a particular type of quadratic form, and vice-versa.

We show that if $K$ is a monogenic, primitive, totally real number field, that contains units of every signature, then there exists a lower bound for the rank of integer universal quadratic forms defined over $K$. In particular, we extend…

In 1975, [LMQ] listed 7 function felds over fnite felds (up to isomorphism) with positive genus and class number (i.e., the size of the divisor class group of degree zero) one and claimed to prove that these were the only ones such. In…

The P\'{o}lya group of an algebraic number field is the subgroup generated by the ideal classes of the products of prime ideals of equal norm inside the ideal class group. Inspired by a recent work on consecutive quadratic fields with large…

We consider cubic number fields ordered by their discriminants, and show that there exist arbitrarily long sequences that contain only fields with class numbers greater than a given bound.

Let $I(G)^{[k]}$ denote the $k$th squarefree power of the edge ideal of $G$. When $G$ is a forest, we provide a sharp upper bound for the regularity of $I(G)^{[k]}$ in terms of the $k$-admissable matching number of $G$. For any positive…
