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…

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…

In this paper, we present a complete classification of all imaginary $n$-quadratic fields of class number 1.

We discuss continued fractions on real quadratic number fields of class number 1. If the field has the property of being 2-stage euclidean, a generalization of the euclidean algorithm can be used to compute these continued fractions.…

For a given positive integer $k$, we prove that there are at least $x^{1/2-o(1)}$ integers $d\leq x$ such that the real quadratic fields $\mathbb Q(\sqrt{d+1}),\dots,\mathbb Q(\sqrt{d+k})$ have class numbers essentially as large as…

In this article we explain how to construct cyclic octic unramfied extensions of the real quadratic number field $k = {\mathbb Q}(\sqrt{2p}\,)$, where $p \equiv 1 \bmod 8$ is a prime number such that $h_2(k) \equiv 0 \bmod 8$. The…

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…

The isomorphism type of the Galois group of the 2-class field tower of quadratic number fields having a 2-class group with abelian type invariants (4,4) is determined by means of information on the transfer of 2-classes to unramified…

The main purpose of this paper is to extend results on isomorphism types of the abelianized absolute Galois group $\mathcal G_K^{ab}$, where $K$ denotes imaginary quadratic field. In particular, we will show that if the class number $h_K$…

Let $d$ be an odd square-free integer, $m\geq 3$ any integer and $L_{m, d}:=\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{2^m},\sqrt{d})$. In this paper, we shall determine all the fields $L_{m, d}$ having an odd class number. Furthermore, using the cyclotomic…

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 show how to construct infinite families of explicitly determined cubic number fields whose class group has a subgroup isomorphic to $(\mathbb{Z}/2)^8$ using degree $1$ del Pezzo surfaces. We illustrate the method and provide an example…

We give a construction of unramified cyclic octic extensions of certain complex quadratic number fields. The binary quadratic form used in this construction also shows up in the theory of 2-descents on Pell conics and elliptic curves, as…

In this paper, we compute the unit groups and the $2$-class numbers of the Fr\"ohlich's triquadratic fields $\KK=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2},\sqrt{p},\sqrt{q})$, where $p$ and $q$ are two prime numbers such that ($p\equiv 1 \pmod8$ and $q\equiv 3…

Let $D<0$ be a fundamental discriminant and denote by $E(D)$ the exponent of the ideal class group $\text{Cl}(D)$ of $K={\mathbb Q}(\sqrt{D})$. Under the assumption that no Siegel zeros exist we compute all such $D$ with $E(D)$ is a divisor…

A number field $k$ admits a binary integral quadratic form which represents all integers locally but not globally if and only if the class number of $k$ is bigger than one. In this case, there are only finitely many classes of such binary…

By using the logarithmic approach of the classical kernels for the K2 of number fields, we compute the 2-rank of the wild kernel WK2(F) and the 2-rank of the subgroup of infinite heigh elements in K2(F) in terms of positive class groups for…

We study the capitulation of ideal classes in an infinite family of imaginary bicyclic biquadratic number fields consisting of fields $k =Q(\sqrt{2pq}, i)$, where $i=\sqrt{-1}$ and $p\equiv -q\equiv1 \pmod 4$ are different primes. For each…
