Jacobi symbols, ambiguous ideals, and continued fractions

R. A. Mollin (1998)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

The purpose of this paper is to generalize some seminal results in the literature concerning the interrelationships between Legendre symbols and continued fractions. We introduce the power of ideal theory into the arena. This allows significant improvements over the existing results via the infrastructure of real quadratic fields.

The distributivity numbers of finite products of P(ω)/fin

Saharon Shelah, Otmar Spinas (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Generalizing [ShSp], for every n < ω we construct a ZFC-model where ℌ(n), the distributivity number of r.o. ( P ( ω ) / f i n ) n , is greater than ℌ(n+1). This answers an old problem of Balcar, Pelant and Simon (see [BaPeSi]). We also show that both Laver and Miller forcings collapse the continuum to ℌ(n) for every n < ω, hence by the first result, consistently they collapse it below ℌ(n).

Modules commuting (via Hom) with some limits

Robert El Bashir, Tomáš Kepka (1998)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

For every module M we have a natural monomorphism   Φ : ∐ i ∈ I H o m R ( A i , M ) → H o m R ( ∏ i ∈ I A i , M ) and we focus attention on the case when Φ is also an epimorphism. The corresponding modules M depend on thickness of the cardinal number card(I). Some other limits are also considered.
