Let $p$ be a prime. The $2$-primary part of the class group of the pure quartic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt[4]{p})$ has been determined by Parry and Lemmermeyer when $p \not\equiv \pm 1\bmod 16$. In this paper, we improve the known results in…

Given a $2$-adic field $K$, we give formulae for the number of totally ramified quartic field extensions $L/K$ with a given discriminant valuation and Galois closure group. We use these formulae to prove a refinement of Serre's mass…

The main purpose of this paper is to find all the prime numbers p for which whenever we add to p an odd square less than p we obtain a number which has at most two different prime factors. We solve completely the cases $p\equiv 1,3,5 \pmod…

Let $C$ be a smooth genus one curve described by a quartic polynomial equation over the rational field $\mathbb Q$ with $P\in C(\mathbb Q)$. We give an explicit criterion for the divisibility-by-$2$ of a rational point on the elliptic curve…

Let $\ell$ and $p \geq 3$ be distinct prime numbers. Let $E/\mathbb{Q}_{\ell}$ be an elliptic curve with $p$-torsion module $E_p$. Let $\mathbb{Q}_{\ell}(E_p)$ be the $p$-torsion field of $E$. We provide a complete description of the degree…

A general linear determinantal quartic in $\mathbb{P}^4$ is nodal, non-$\mathbb{Q}$-factorial and rational. We show that the family $\mathcal{F}$ of such quartics also contains rational $\mathbb{Q}$-factorial quartics, and that a generic…

Let $k$ be a number field and $O$ the ring of integers. In the previous paper [T06] we study the Dirichlet series counting discriminants of cubic algebras of $O$ and derive some density theorems on distributions of the discriminants by…

We obtain upper bounds for the number of monic irreducible polynomials over $\mathbb Z$ of a fixed degree $n$ and a growing height $H$ for which the field generated by one of its roots has a given discriminant. We approach it via counting…

We show that an oracle A that contains either 1/4 or 3/4 of all strings of length n can be used to separate EQP from the counting classes MOD_{p^k}P. Our proof makes use of the degree of a representing polynomial over the finite field of…

Let $k$ be a number field. We provide an asymptotic formula for the number of Galois extensions of $k$ with absolute discriminant bounded by some $X \geq 1$, as $X\to\infty$. We also provide an asymptotic formula for the closely related…

A finite set $S \subset \mathbb{Z}$ is a Sidon set if its pairwise differences are distinct. Recall that a perfect difference set (PDS) of order $n$ is a set $B \subset \mathbb{Z}_v$ ($v = n^2 - n + 1$) of size $n$ such that every nonzero…

We show that for each n-tuple of positive rational integers (a_1,..,a_n) there are sets of primes S of arbitrarily large cardinality s such that the solutions of the equation a_1x_1+...+a_nx_n=1 with the x_i all S-units are not contained in…

It is shown that the sum of class numbers of orders in totally complex quartic fields with no real quadratic subfield obeys an asymptotic law similar to the prime numbers, as the bound on the regulators tends to infinity. Here only orders…

This paper examines the problem of obtaining a $D(4)$-quadruple by adding a smaller element to a $D(4)$-triple. We prove some relations between elements of observed hypothetical $D(4)$-quadruples under which conjecture of the uniqueness of…

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 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 $2$,…

Cubic fourfolds of discriminant 24 contain special codimension-two algebraic cycles of degree 6 and self-intersection 20. Such cycles may be represented by singular scrolls or del Pezzo surfaces. A discriminant 24 cubic fourfold gives rise…

This paper provides two characterizations of the primitive roots of unity in quadratic cyclotomic extensions over arbitrary fields. Firstly, we introduce a mapping from $\mathbb{N}$ to $\mathbb{N}$ crucial for describing these roots,…

In this paper we illustrate the use of the results from [1] proving that $D(4)$-triple $\{a, b, c\}$ with $a < b < a + 57\sqrt{a}$ has a unique extension to a quadruple with a larger element. This furthermore implies that $D(4)$-pair $\{a,…

Let $p$ be an odd prime number, $D_p$ be the dihedral group of order $2p$, $h_p$ and $h^+_p$ be the class numbers of $\bm{Q}(\zeta_p)$ and $\bm{Q}(\zeta_p+ \zeta_p^{-1})$ respectively. Theorem. $h_p^+=1$ if and only if, for any field $k$…
