The theory of continued fractions of functions $ \sqrt D $ is used to give lower bound for class numbers $h(D)$ of general real quadratic function fields $K=k(\sqrt D)$ over $k={\bf F}_q(T)$. For five series of real quadratic function…

There exist numerous results in the literature proving that within certain families of totally real number fields, the minimal rank of a universal quadratic lattice over such a field can be arbitrarily large. Kala introduced a technique of…

It has been shown by Madden that there are only finitely many quadratic extensions of k(x), k a finite field, in which the ideal class group has exponent two and the infinity place of k(x) ramifies. We give a characterization of such fields…

Let $k\geq 3$ and $n\geq 3$ be odd integers, and let $m\geq 0$ be any integer. For a prime number $\ell$, we prove that the class number of the imaginary quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{\ell^{2m}-2k^n})$ is either divisible by $n$ or by a…

Recent work of Freitas and Siksek showed that an asymptotic version of Fermat's Last Theorem holds for many totally real fields. Later this result was extended by Deconinck to generalized Fermat equations of the form $Ax^p +By^p +Cz^p = 0$,…

Let $\mathcal{O}$ be an order in an algebraic number field and suppose that the set of distances $\Delta(\mathcal{O})$ of $\mathcal{O}$ is nonempty (equivalently, $\mathcal{O}$ is not half-factorial). If $\mathcal{O}$ is seminormal (in…

In light of Kim's conjecture on regular polytopes of dimension four, which is a generalization of Waring's problem, we establish asymptotic formulas for representing any sufficiently large integer as a sum of numbers in the form of those…

We consider the class numbers of imaginary quadratic extensions $F(\sqrt{-p})$, for certain primes $p$, of totally real quadratic fields $F$ which have class number one. Using seminal work of Shintani, we obtain two elementary class number…

We study and explicitly construct some families of asymptotically exact sequences of algebraic function fields. It turns out that these families have an asymptotical class number widely greater than the general Lachaud - Martin-Deschamps…

To any quartic $D_4$ extension of $\mathbb{Q}$, one can associate the Artin conductor of a 2-dimensional irreducible representation of the group. Alt\u{u}g, Shankar, Varma, and Wilson determined the asymptotic number of such fields when…

A notion of arithmetic similarity between number fields is defined by requiring equality of some arithmetic statistics over all but finitely many rational primes. The exceptional set is empty in all previously studied cases, but existing…

In 2012 the first named author conjectured that totally real quartic fields of fundamental discriminant are determined by the isometry class of the integral trace zero form; such conjecture was based on computational evidence and the analog…

This paper applies the modular approach to obtain effectively computable bounds for Fermat-type equations over number fields, while also discussing the differences and obstructions that arise when considering such equations over totally…

We determine the shapes of all degree $4$ number fields that are Galois. These lie in four infinite families depending on the Galois group and the tame versus wild ramification of the field. In the $V_4$ case, each family is a…

An integral quadratic form is called strictly $n$-regular if it primitively represents all quadratic forms in $n$ variables that are primitively represented by its genus. For any $n \geq 2$, it will be shown that there are only finitely…

In this article, we prove that every finite abelian group $G$ of odd order occurs as a subgroup of the class group of infinitely many real cyclotomic fields.

We extend known results on the number of solutions to a linear equation in at least three prime numbers when the primes involved are required to lie in specified Chebotarev classes. We prove asymptotic results similar to previous ones only…

We give an upper bound for the norm of the determinant of additively indecomposable, totally positive definite quadratic forms defined over the ring of integers of totally real number fields. We apply these results to find lower and upper…

Let $\ell \ne 3$ be a prime. We show that there are only finitely many cyclic number fields $F$ of degree $\ell$ for which the unit equation $$\lambda + \mu = 1, \qquad \lambda,~\mu \in \mathcal{O}_F^\times$$ has solutions. Our result is…

We show that an order in a quartic field has fewer than $3000$ essentially different generators as a $\mathbb Z$-algebra (and fewer than $200$ if the discriminant of the order is sufficiently large). This significantly improves the…
