The conductor of a cyclic quartic field using Gauss sums

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

Let $Q$ denote the field of rational numbers. Let $K$ be a cyclic quartic extension of $Q$ . It is known that there are unique integers $A$ , $B$ , $C$ , $D$ such that $K = Q (\sqrt{A (D + B \sqrt{D})}),$ where $A is squarefree and odd, D = B^{2} + C^{2} is squarefree, B > 0, C > 0, G C D (A, D) = 1 .$ The conductor $f (K)$ of $K$ is $f (K) = 2^{l} | A | D$ , where $l = \{\begin{matrix} 3, if D \equiv 2 (mod 4) or D \equiv 1 (mod 4), B \equiv 1 (mod 2), \\ 2, if D \equiv 1 (mod 4), B \equiv 0 (mod 2), A + B \equiv 3 (mod 4), \\ 0, if D \equiv 1 (mod 4), B \equiv 0 (mod 2), A + B \equiv 1 (mod 4) . \end{matrix}$ A simple proof of this formula for $f (K)$ is given, which uses the basic properties of quartic Gauss sums.

Similarity:

We make more accessible a neglected simple continued fraction based algorithm due to Lagrange, for deciding the solubility of $a x^{2} + b x y + c y^{2} = N$ in relatively prime integers $x, y$ , where $N \neq 0$ , gcd $(a, b, c) = gcd (a, N) = 1 et D = b^{2} - 4 a c > 0$ is not a perfect square. In the case of solubility, solutions with least positive y, from each equivalence class, are also constructed. Our paper is a generalisation of an earlier paper by the author on the equation $x^{2} - D y^{2} = N$ . As in that paper, we use a lemma on unimodular matrices that gives a much simpler proof than Lagrange’s...

On some equations over finite fields

Ioulia Baoulina (2005)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

In this paper, following L. Carlitz we consider some special equations of $n$ variables over the finite field of $q$ elements. We obtain explicit formulas for the number of solutions of these equations, under a certain restriction on $n$ and $q$ .

Representation of prime powers in arithmetical progressions by binary quadratic forms

Franz Halter-Koch (2003)

Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

Let $Γ$ be a set of binary quadratic forms of the same discriminant, $Δ$ a set of arithmetical progressions and $m$ a positive integer. We investigate the representability of prime powers $p^{m}$ lying in some progression from $Δ$ by some form from $Γ$ .
