We give an explicit necessary condition for pairs of orders in a quartic CM-field to have the same polarised class group. This generalises a simpler result for imaginary quadratic fields. We give an application of our results to computing…
Let $K$ be a complete discretely valued field of rank one, with residue field $\Q_p$. It is well known that period equals index in $\Br(K)$. We prove that when $p=2$ there exist noncyclic $K$-division algebras of every $2$-power degree…
Let $G$ be a word hyperbolic group. We prove that the algebraic $K$-theory groups of $\dbZ [G]$, $K_n(\dbZ[G])$, have finite rank for all $n\in \dbZ$. For a few classes of groups, we give explicit formulas for the ranks of the algebraic…
We consider in C^n the class of symmetric homogeneous quadratic dynamical systems. We introduce the notion of algebraic integrability for this class. We present a class of symmetric quadratic dynamical systems that are algebraically…
We study the number of elliptic curves, up to isomorphism, over a fixed quartic field $K$ having a prescribed torsion group $T$ as a subgroup. Let $T=\Z/m\Z \oplus \Z/n\Z$, where $m|n$, be a torsion group such that the modular curve…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\mathbb{Q}$. For a quadratic number field $K$ and an odd prime number $p$, let $L$ be a $\mathbb{Z}_p$-extension of $K$. We prove that $E(L)_{\text{tors}}=E(K)_{\text{tors}}$ when $p>5$. It enables…
This paper continues the study of K-theoretic invariants for semigroup C*-algebras attached to ax+b-semigroups over rings of algebraic integers in number fields. We show that from the semigroup C*-algebra together with its canonical…
In this article we study the endomorphism algebras of abelian varieties $A$ defined over a given number field $K$ with large cyclic 2-torsion fields. A key step in doing so is to provide criteria for all the endomorphisms of $A$ to be…
In this paper, we study simple cubic fields in the function field setting, and also generalize the notion of a set of exceptional units to cubic function fields, namely the notion of $k$-exceptional units. We give a simple proof that the…
In this paper, we present a complete classification of all imaginary $n$-quadratic fields of class number 1.
Let K/F be a cyclic extension of prime degree l over a number field F. If F has class number coprime to l, we study the structure of the l-Sylow subgroup of the class group of K. In particular, when F contains the l-th roots of unity, we…
Let $E$ be an elliptic curve defined over $\Q$, and let $G$ be the torsion group $E(K)_{tors}$ for some cubic field $K$ which does not occur over $\Q$. In this paper, we determine over which types of cubic number fields (cyclic cubic,…
For a prime \(p\ge 2\) and a number field K with p-class group of type (p,p) it is shown that the class, coclass, and further invariants of the metabelian Galois group \(G=Gal(F_p^2(K) | K)\) of the second Hilbert p-class field \(F_p^2(K)\)…
We use algebraic techniques to study homological filling functions of groups and their subgroups. If $G$ is a group admitting a finite $(n+1)$--dimensional $K(G,1)$ and $H \leq G$ is of type $F_{n+1}$, then the $n^{th}$--homological filling…
Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for a prime Noetherian algebra K[S] of a submonoid S of a polycyclic-by-finite group G to be a maximal order. These conditions are entirely in terms of the monoid S. This extends earlier results…
Let $E$ be an elliptic defined over a number field $K$. Then its Mordell-Weil group $E(K)$ is finitely generated: $E(K)\cong E(K)_{tor}\times\mathbb{Z}^r$. In this paper, we discuss the cyclic torsion subgroup of elliptic curves over cubic…
We study thick ideals in the stable motivic homotopy category SH(k) and in its subcategories of compact and of finite cellular objects. If k is a subfield of the complex or even the real numbers, then using comparison functors we find thick…
In this paper we prove that there are exactly eight function fields, up to isomorphism, over finite fields with class number one.
Let $k\geq 3$ and $n\geq 3$ be odd integers, and let $m\geq 0$ be any integer. For a prime number $\ell$, we prove that the class number of the imaginary quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{\ell^{2m}-2k^n})$ is either divisible by $n$ or by a…
We formulate a model for the average behaviour of ray class groups of real quadratic fields with respect to a fixed rational modulus, locally at a finite set $S$ of odd primes. To that end, we introduce Arakelov ray class groups of a number…
