We prove the rank of the group of signatures of the circular units (hence also the full group of units) of ${\mathbb Q}( \zeta_m)^+$ tends to infinity with $m$. We also show the signature rank of the units differs from its maximum possible…

We collect some statements regarding equivalence of the parities of various class numbers and signature ranks of units in prime power cyclotomic fields. We correct some misstatements in the literature regarding these parities by providing…

We prove that in each degree divisible by 2 or 3, there are infinitely many totally real number fields that require universal quadratic forms to have arbitrarily large rank.

We show that if $K$ is a monogenic, primitive, totally real number field, that contains units of every signature, then there exists a lower bound for the rank of integer universal quadratic forms defined over $K$. In particular, we extend…

We establish an upper bound on the number of real multiquadratic fields that admit a universal quadratic lattice of a given rank, or contain a given amount of indecomposable elements modulo totally positive units, obtaining density zero…

Let $K$ be a number field of degree $n$ over ${\mathbb Q}$. Then the 4-rank of the strict class group of $K$ is at least ${\text{rank}_2 \, } ({ E_{K}^{+} } / E_K^2) - \lfloor n /2 \rfloor$ where $E_K$ and ${ E_{K}^{+} }$ denote the units…

For all positive integers $k$ and $N$ we prove that there are infinitely many totally real multiquadratic fields $K$ of degree $2^k$ over $\mathbb Q$ such that each universal quadratic form over $K$ has at least $N$ variables.

We prove an explicit upper bound on the number of real quadratic fields that admit a universal quadratic form of a given rank, thus establishing a density zero statement. More generally, we obtain such a result for totally positive definite…

The aim of this article is to study (additively) indecomposable algebraic integers $\mathcal O_K$ of biquadratic number fields $K$ and universal totally positive quadratic forms with coefficients in $\mathcal O_K$. There are given…

Given a totally real number field $F$, we show that there are only finitely many totally real extensions of $K$ of a fixed degree that admit a universal quadratic form defined over $F$. We further obtain several explicit classification…

We show that, in the space of all totally real fields equipped with the constructible topology, the set of fields that admit a universal quadratic form, or have the Northcott property, is meager. The main tool is a new theorem on the number…

We investigate in detail a homomorphism which we call the 2-Selmer signature map from the $2$-Selmer group of a number field $K$ to a nondegenerate symmetric space, in particular proving the image is a maximal totally isotropic subspace.…

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.

We classify all totally real number fields of degree at most 5 that admit a universal quadratic form with rational integer coefficients; in fact, there are none over the previously unsolved cases of quartic and quintic fields. This fully…

For a totally positive definite quadratic form over the ring of integers of a totally real number field $K$, we show that there are only finitely many totally real field extensions of $K$ of a fixed degree over which the form is universal…

For any given positive integer $m$ we construct certain totally positive algebraic integers $\alpha$ of a real bi-quadratic field $K$ and obtain some necessary conditions for which $m\alpha$ can not be represented as sum of integral…

We determine some properties of the narrow 2-class field tower of those real quadratic number fields whose discriminants are not a sum of two squares and for which their 2-class groups are elementary of order $4$. Here in Part I, we…

In this paper, we revisit the theory of perfect unary forms over real quadratic fields. Specifically, we deduce an infinite family of real quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ when $d=2$ or $3$ mod $4$, such that there are three classes…

In this paper, we investigate the 2-rank of the class group of some real cyclic quartic number fields. Precisely, we consider the case where the quadratic subfield is Q(\sqrt{l}) with l congruent to 5 modulo 8 is a prime.

We give a signed fundamental domain for the action on $\mathbb{C}^*\times \mathbb{R}_+^{n-2}$ of the totally positive units $E(k)_+$ of a number field $k$ of degree $n$ and having exactly one pair of complex embeddings. This signed…
