We obtain divisibility conditions on the multiplicative orders of elements of the form $\zeta + \zeta^{-1}$ in a finite field by exploiting a link to the arithmetic of real quadratic fields.

In this paper, we determine the 2-rank of the class group of certain classes of real cyclic quartic number fields. Precisely, we consider the case in which the quadratic subfield is Q(\sqrt{l}) with l=2 or a prime congruent to 1 mod 8.

Let $k_i\ (i=1,2,\ldots,t)$ be natural numbers with $k_1>k_2>\cdots>k_t>0$, $k_1\geq 2$ and $t<k_1.$ Given real numbers $\alpha_{ji}\ (1\leq j\leq t,\ 1\leq i\leq s)$, we consider polynomials of the shape…

We study the mean square of sums of the $k$th divisor function $d_k(n)$ over short intervals and arithmetic progressions for the rational function field over a finite field of $q$ elements. In the limit as $q\rightarrow\infty$ we establish…

We compute the $p$-adic regulator of cyclic cubic extensions of $\mathbb Q$ with discriminant up to $10^{16}$ for $3<p<100$, and observe the distribution of the $p$-adic valuation of the regulators. We find that for almost all primes, the…

Consider the divisor sum $\sum_{n\leq N}\tau(n^2+2bn+c)$ for integers $b$ and $c$ which satisfy certain extra conditions. For this average sum we obtain an explicit upper bound, which is close to the optimal. As an application we improve…

In this paper we obtain a mean value theorem for a general Dirichlet series $f(s)= \sum_{j=1}^\infty a_j n_j^{-s}$ with positive coefficients for which the counting function $A(x) = \sum_{n_{j}\le x}a_{j}$ satisfies $A(x)=\rho x +…

Classifications and representations are two main topics in the theory of quadratic forms. In this paper, we consider these topics of ternary quadratic forms. For a given squarefree integer $N$, first we give the classification of positive…

Let $\Lambda(1,n)$ be the $(1,n)$-th Fourier coefficients of $SL(3,\mathbb{Z})$ Hecke-Maass cusp form and $d_3(n)$ denotes the triple divisor function. This paper establishes non-trivial bounds for the averages of these arithmetic functions…

Denoting by $\mathbb{M}$ the complexification of the quaternionic algebra $\mathbb{H}$, we characterize the family of those $\mathbb{M}$-valued functions, defined on subsets of $\H$, whose values are actually quaternions, using an intrinsic…

Mean square estimates for $Z_2(s) = \int_1^\infty |\zeta(1/2+ix)|^4x^{-s}dx (\Re s > 1)$ are discussed, and some related Mellin transforms of quantities connected with the fourth power moment of $|\zeta(1/2+ix)|^4$.

The main purpose of this paper is to show some relations between the Riemann zeta function and the generalized Bernoulli polynomials of level $m$. Our approach is based on the use of Fourier expansions for the periodic generalized Bernoulli…

Let Q(4n,d) be the sum of all multiple zeta values of depth d and weight 4n whose arguments are all multiples of 4. In this paper we derive a formula of Q(4n,d) for all d>2 as a finite sum involving binomial coefficients, Bernoulli numbers…

In this paper, we aim at estimating the quarticity of continuous It\^{o} semimartingales. Instead of using some classical estimators, we introduce a more intuitive one and establish a central limit theorem (CLT) for it, with a convergence…

The zeta-function of a complex variety is a power series whose nth coefficient is the nth symmetric power of the variety, viewed as an element in the Grothendieck ring of complex varieties. We prove that the zeta-function of a surface is…
