In this paper, we give a formula for the proper class number of a binary quadratic polynomial assuming that the conductor ideal is sufficiently divisible at dyadic places. This allows us to study the growth of the proper class numbers of…

We show that there exists an upper bound for the number of squares in arithmetic progression over a number field that depends only on the degree of the field. We show that this bound is 5 for quadratic fields, and also that the result…

This paper deals with the quadratic integers of small norms and asserts that in some sense R >> (log D)^2 is true for almost all real quadratic number fields. (A few errata is corrected.)

Given an odd prime number p, we describe a continued fraction in the field F(p) of power series in 1/T with coefficients in the finite field F_p, where T is a formal indeterminate. This continued fraction satisfies an algebraic equation of…

For a prime number $p \geq 5$, we explicitly construct a family of imaginary quadratic fields $K$ with ideal class groups $Cl_{K}$ having $p$-rank ${{\rm{rk}}_{p}(Cl_{K})}$ at least $2$. We also quantitatively prove, under the assumption of…

We consider the counting function of ideals in a given ideal class of a number field of degree $d$. This describes, at least conjecturally, the Fourier coefficients of an automorphic form on $\text{GL}(d)$, typically not a Hecke eigenform…

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 establish asymptotic formulae for the first and second moments of quadratic Dirichlet $L$--functions, at the centre of the critical strip, associated to the real quadratic function field $k(\sqrt{P})$ and inert imaginary quadratic…

Casually introduced thirty years ago, a simple algebraic equation of degree 4, with coefficients in Fp[T], has a solution in the field of power series in 1/T, over the finite field Fp. For each prime p > 3, the continued fraction expansion…

In this paper, we construct infinitely many quadruples of real quadratic fields whose class numbers are all divisible by $3$. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first result towards the divisibility of the class numbers of certain…

We describe various properties of continued fraction expansions of complex numbers in terms of Gaussian integers. Numerous distinct such expansions are possible for a complex number. They can be arrived at through various algorithms, as…

We consider the problem of determining whether a given prime p is a congruent number. We present an easily computed criterion that allows us to conclude that certain primes for which congruency was previously undecided, are in fact not…

The first part of this note is a short introduction on continued fraction expansions for certain algebraic power series. In the last part, as an illustration, we present a family of algebraic continued fractions of degree 4, including a toy…

The continue fractions of quadratic surds are periodic, according to a theorem by Lagrange. Their periods may have differing types of symmetries. This work relates these types of symmetries to the symmetries of the classes of the…

In 1986, some examples of algebraic, and nonquadratic, power series over a finite prime field, having a continued fraction expansion with partial quotients all of degree one, were discovered by W. Mills and D. Robbins. In this note we show…

Let $\mathbb{K} = \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-d})$ be an imaginary quadratic number field of class number $1$ and $\mathcal{O}_{\mathbb{K}}$ its ring of integers. We study a family of Hecke $L$-functions associated to angular characters on the…

On the one hand, it is well known that the only subquadratic Dehn function of finitely presented groups is the linear one. On the other hand there is a huge class of Dehn functions $d(n)$ with growth at least $n^4$ (essentially all possible…
