Let $K$ be a quadratic imaginary number field of discriminant $d$. For $t\in \mathbb{N}$ let ${𝔒}_t$ denote the order of conductor $t$ in $K$ and $j\left({𝔒}_t\right)$ its modular invariant which is known to generate the ring class field modulo $t$ over $K$. The coefficients of the minimal equation of $j\left({𝔒}_t\right)$ being quite large Weber considered in [We] the functions $f,f_1,f_2,{\gamma }_2,{\gamma }_3$ defined below and thereby obtained simpler generators of the ring class fields. Later on the singular values of these functions played a crucial role in Heegner’s solution [He] of...

Let $p\equiv 1(mod8)$ and $q\equiv 3(mod8)$ be two prime integers and let $\ell \notin \{-1,p,q\}$ be a positive odd square-free integer. Assuming that the fundamental unit of $\mathbb{Q}\left(\sqrt{2p}\right)$ has a negative norm, we investigate the unit group of the fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2},\sqrt{p},\sqrt{q},\sqrt{-\ell })$.

Let $k$ be a number field with a 2-class group isomorphic to the Klein four-group. The aim of this paper is to give a characterization of capitulation types using group properties. Furthermore, as applications, we determine the structure of the second 2-class groups of some special Dirichlet fields $𝕜=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d},\sqrt{-1})$, which leads to a correction of some parts in the main results of A. Azizi and A. Zekhini (2020).

Let $X$ be a complex manifold, $S$ a generic submanifold of $X^{\mathbb{R}}$, the real underlying manifold to $X$. Let $\mathrm{\Omega }$ be an open subset of $S$ with $\partial \mathrm{\Omega }$ analytic, $Y$ a complexification of $S$. We first recall the notion of $\mathrm{\Omega }$-tuboid of $X$ and of $Y$ and then give a relation between; we then give the corresponding result in terms of microfunctions at the boundary. We relate the regularity at the boundary for ${\overline{\partial }}_b$ to the extendability of $CR$ functions on $\mathrm{\Omega }$ to $\mathrm{\Omega }$-tuboids of $X$. Next, if $X$ has complex dimension 2, we give results...

Let $p$ and $q$ be two different prime integers such that $p\equiv q\equiv 3(mod8)$ with $(p/q)=1$, and $l$ a positive odd square-free integer relatively prime to $p$ and $q$. In this paper we investigate the unit groups of number fields $𝕃=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2},\sqrt{p},\sqrt{q},\sqrt{-l})$.

Let p > 3 be a prime, and let Rₚ be the set of rational numbers whose denominator is not divisible by p. Let Pₙ(x) be the Legendre polynomials. In this paper we mainly show that for m,n,t ∈ Rₚ with m≢ 0 (mod p), $P_{[p/6]}\left(t\right)\equiv -(3/p){\sum }_{x=0}^{p-1}((x³-3x+2t)/p)\left(modp\right)$ and $\left({\sum }_{x=0}^{p-1}((x³+mx+n)/p)\right)²\equiv ((-3m)/p){\sum }_{k=0}^{[p/6]}\left(\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{2k}{k}\right)\left(\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{3k}{k}\right)\left(\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{6k}{3k}\right){((4m³+27n²)/\left(12³·4m³\right))}^k\left(modp\right)$, where (a/p) is the Legendre symbol and [x] is the greatest integer function. As an application we solve some conjectures of Z. W. Sun and the author concerning ${\sum }_{k=0}^{p-1}\left(\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{2k}{k}\right)\left(\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{3k}{k}\right)\left(\genfrac{}{}{0pt}{}{6k}{3k}\right)/m^k\left(modp²\right)$, where m is an integer not divisible by p.

For positive integers $n$, Euler’s phi function and Dedekind’s psi function are given by $$\phi \left(n\right)=n\prod _{\begin{array}{c}p\mid n\\ p\mathrm{prime}\end{array}}\left(1-\frac{1}{p}\right)\text{and}\psi \left(n\right)=n\prod _{\begin{array}{c}p\mid n\\ p\mathrm{prime}\end{array}}\left(1+\frac{1}{p}\right),$$ respectively. We prove that for all $n\ge 2$ we have $${\left(1-\frac{1}{n}\right)}^{n-1}{\left(1+\frac{1}{n}\right)}^{n+1}\le {\left(\frac{\phi \left(n\right)}{n}\right)}^{\phi \left(n\right)}{\left(\frac{\psi \left(n\right)}{n}\right)}^{\psi \left(n\right)}$$ and $${\left(\frac{\phi \left(n\right)}{n}\right)}^{\psi \left(n\right)}{\left(\frac{\psi \left(n\right)}{n}\right)}^{\phi \left(n\right)}\le {\left(1-\frac{1}{n}\right)}^{n+1}{\left(1+\frac{1}{n}\right)}^{n-1}.$$ The sign of equality holds if and only if $n$ is a prime. The first inequality refines results due to Atanassov (2011) and Kannan & Srikanth (2013).

Let $f$ be a continuous function on $I$ and $A$, $B\in {\mathrm{𝒮𝒜}}_I\left(H\right)$, the convex set of selfadjoint operators with spectra in $I$. If $A\ne B$ and $f$, as an operator function, is Gateaux differentiable on $$[A,B]:=\left\{(1-t)A+tB\mid t\in \left[0,1\right]\right\},$$ while $p:\left[0,1\right]\to ℝ$ is Lebesgue integrable, then we have the inequalities $$\begin{array}{cc}\hfill \parallel {\int }_0^{1}p\left(\tau \right)& f\left(\left(1-\tau \right)A+\tau B\right)d\tau -{\int }_0^{1}p\left(\tau \right)d\tau {\int }_0^{1}f\left(\left(1-\tau \right)A+\tau B\right)d\tau \parallel \hfill \\ & \le {\int }_0^1\tau (1-\tau )|\frac{{\int }_{\tau }^{1}p\left(s\right)ds}{1-\tau }-\frac{{\int }_0^{\tau }p\left(s\right)ds}{\tau }|∥\nabla f_{\left(1-\tau \right)A+\tau B}\left(B-A\right)∥d\tau \hfill \\ & \le \frac{1}{4}{\int }_0^1|\frac{{\int }_{\tau }^{1}p\left(s\right)ds}{1-\tau }-\frac{{\int }_0^{\tau }p\left(s\right)ds}{\tau }|∥\nabla f_{\left(1-\tau \right)A+\tau B}\left(B-A\right)∥d\tau ,\hfill \end{array}$$ where $\nabla f$ is the Gateaux derivative of $f$.

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 $$K=Q\left(\sqrt{A(D+B\sqrt{D})}\right),$$ where $$A\text{is}\text{squarefree}\text{and}\text{odd},D=B^2+C^2\text{is}\text{squarefree},B>0,C>0,GCD(A,D)=1.$$ The conductor $f\left(K\right)$ of $K$ is $f\left(K\right)=2^l\left|A\right|D$, where $$l=\left\{\begin{array}{c}3,\text{if}D\equiv 2(mod4)\text{or}D\equiv 1(mod4),B\equiv 1(mod2),\hfill \\ 2,\text{if}D\equiv 1(mod4),B\equiv 0(mod2),A+B\equiv 3(mod4),\hfill \\ 0,\text{if}D\equiv 1(mod4),B\equiv 0(mod2),A+B\equiv 1(mod4).\hfill \end{array}\right.$$ A simple proof of this formula for $f\left(K\right)$ is given, which uses the basic properties of quartic Gauss sums.
