We study totally real number fields that admit a universal quadratic form whose coefficients are rational integers. We show that $\mathbb Q(\sqrt 5)$ is the only such real quadratic field, and that among fields of degrees 3, 4, 5, and 7…
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…
Suppose that $ m\equiv 1\mod 4 $ is a prime and that $ n\equiv 3\mod 4 $ is a primitive root modulo $ m $. In this paper we obtain a relation between the class number of the imaginary quadratic field $ \Q(\sqrt{-nm}) $ and the digits of the…
Let $X$ be an elliptic curve or a ramifying hyperelliptic curve over $\mathbb F_q$. We will discuss how to factorize the coefficients of the exponential and logarithm series for a Hayes module over such a curve. This allows us to obtain…
These expository notes introduce $p$-adic $L$-functions and the foundations of Iwasawa theory. We focus on Kubota--Leopoldt's $p$-adic analogue of the Riemann zeta function, which we describe in three different ways. We first present a…
Let $\mathbb F$ denote an algebraically closed field and assume that $q\in \mathbb F$ is a primitive $d^{\rm \, th}$ root of unity with $d\not=1,2,4$. The universal Askey--Wilson algebra $\triangle_q$ is a unital associative $\mathbb…
Let $K= \mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$ be a real quadratic field with $d$ having three distinct prime factors. We show that the $2$-class group of each layer in the $\mathbb{Z}_2$-extension of $K$ is $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$ under certain elementary…
The aim of this note is to give an elementary formulation of Tomio Kubota's proof of Satz 4 in his paper in Nagoya Math. t. 10 (1956) since this proposition is a cornerstone for the computation of the order of the Polya group of the…
Given an odd prime $\ell$ and finite set of odd primes $S_+$, we prove the existence of an imaginary quadratic field whose class number is indivisible by $\ell$ and which splits at every prime in $S_+$. Notably, we do not require that $p…
A conjecture connected with quantum physics led N. Katz to discover some amazing mixed character sum identities over a field of $q$ elements, where $q$ is a power of a prime $p>3$. His proof required deep algebro-geometric techniques, and…
We use logarithmic {\ell}-class groups to take a new view on Greenberg's conjecture about Iwasawa {\ell}-invariants of a totally real number field K. By the way we recall and complete some classical results. Under Leopoldt's conjecture, we…
We give a Euclidean division algorithm for the real quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{m})$ for $m \in \{2, 3, 6, 7, 11, 19\}$, with the property that the norm of the remainder depends on the first Euclidean minimum of the field. In each…
In 2005 Coates, Fukaya, Kato, Sujatha, and Venjakob formulated a noncommutative Iwasawa main conjecture for l-adic Lie extensions of number fields. To provide evidence for this main conjecture we formulate and prove an analogous statement…
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…
We give an explicit necessary condition for pairs of orders in a quartic CM-field to have the same polarised class group. This generalises a simpler result for imaginary quadratic fields. We give an application of our results to computing…
In this paper, we study the discrete logarithm problem in the finite fields $\F_{q^n}$ where $n|q-1$. The field is called a Kummer field or a Kummer extension of $\F_q$. It plays an important role in improving the AKS primality proving…
By Dirichlet's Unit Theorem, under the log embedding the units in the ring of integers of a number field form a lattice, called the log-unit lattice. We investigate the geometry of these lattices when the number field is a biquadratic or…
We use a variant of Vinogradov's method to show that the density of the set of prime numbers $p\equiv -1\bmod~4$ for which the class group of the imaginary quadratic number field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-8p})$ has an element of order $16$ is…
In this brief note, we consider p-adic unit roots or poles of L-functions of exponential sums defined over finite fields. In particular, we look at the number of unit roots or poles, and a congruence relation on the units. This raises a…
Let p > 2 be a prime. Let Q(zeta) be the p-cyclotomic field. Let pi be the prime ideal of Q(zeta) lying over p. This article aims to describe some pi-adic congruences characterizing the structure of the p-class group and of the unit group…
