On the number of representations of a positive integer by certain quadratic forms

Ernest X. W. Xia (2014)

Colloquium Mathematicae

For natural numbers a,b and positive integer n, let R(a,b;n) denote the number of representations of n in the form i = 1 a ( x ² i + x i y i + y ² i ) + 2 j = 1 b ( u ² j + u j v j + v ² j ) . Lomadze discovered a formula for R(6,0;n). Explicit formulas for R(1,5;n), R(2,4;n), R(3,3;n), R(4,2;n) and R(5,1;n) are determined in this paper by using the (p;k)-parametrization of theta functions due to Alaca, Alaca and Williams.

On the quartic character of quadratic units

Zhi-Hong Sun (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Let ℤ be the set of integers, and let (m,n) be the greatest common divisor of integers m and n. Let p be a prime of the form 4k+1 and p = c²+d² with c,d ∈ ℤ, d = 2 r d and c ≡ d₀ ≡ 1 (mod 4). In the paper we determine ( b + ( b ² + 4 α ) / 2 ) ( p - 1 ) / 4 ) ( m o d p ) for p = x²+(b²+4α)y² (b,x,y ∈ ℤ, 2∤b), and ( 2 a + 4 a ² + 1 ) ( p - 1 ) / 4 ( m o d p ) for p = x²+(4a²+1)y² (a,x,y∈ℤ) on the condition that (c,x+d) = 1 or (d₀,x+c) = 1. As applications we obtain the congruence for U ( p - 1 ) / 4 ( m o d p ) and the criterion for p | U ( p - 1 ) / 8 (if p ≡ 1 (mod 8)), where Uₙ is the Lucas sequence given by U₀ = 0, U₁ = 1 and U n + 1 = b U + U n - 1 ( n 1 ) , and b ≢...
