Lifting problem for universal quadratic forms over totally real cubic number fields

Number Theory 2024-03-14 v1

Abstract

Lifting problem for universal quadratic forms asks for totally real number fields KK that admit a positive definite quadratic form with coefficients in Z\mathbb{Z} that is universal over the ring of integers of KK. In this paper, we show that K=Q(ζ7+ζ71)K=\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_7+\zeta_7^{-1}) is the only such totally real cubic field. Moreover, we show that there is no such biquadratic field.
