On the statistical properties of finite continued fractions.
We study the capitulation of -ideal classes of an infinite family of imaginary bicyclic biquadratic number fields consisting of fields , where and are different primes. For each of the three quadratic extensions inside the absolute genus field of , we determine a fundamental system of units and then compute the capitulation kernel of . The generators of the groups and are also determined from which we deduce that is smaller than the relative genus field . Then we prove that each...
For a typical example of a complete discrete valuation field of type II in the sense of [12], we determine the graded quotients for all . In the Appendix, we describe the Milnor -groups of a certain local ring by using differential modules, which are related to the theory of syntomic cohomology.
We study the structure of longest sequences in which have no zero-sum subsequence of length n (or less). We prove, among other results, that for and d arbitrary, or and d = 3, every sequence of c(n,d)(n-1) elements in which has no zero-sum subsequence of length n consists of c(n,d) distinct elements each appearing n-1 times, where and .
Let K be a finite set of lattice points in a plane. We prove that if |K| is sufficiently large and |K+K| < (4 - 2/s)|K| - (2s-1), then there exist s - 1 parallel lines which cover K. We also obtain some more precise structure theorems for the cases s = 3 and s = 4.
Let be an imaginary cyclic quartic number field whose 2-class group is of type , i.e., isomorphic to . The aim of this paper is to determine the structure of the Iwasawa module of the genus field of .
From a paper by A. Angelakis and P. Stevenhagen on the determination of a family of imaginary quadratic fields having isomorphic absolute Abelian Galois groups , we study any such issue for arbitrary number fields . We show that this kind of property is probably not easily generalizable, apart from imaginary quadratic fields, because of some -adic obstructions coming from the global units of . By restriction to the -Sylow subgroups of and assuming the Leopoldt conjecture we show that the...
