Positivity of quadratic base change L -functions

Hervé Jacquet, Chen Nan (2001)

Bulletin de la Société Mathématique de France

Similarity:

We show that certain quadratic base change L -functions for Gl ( 2 ) are non-negative at their center of symmetry.

Another look at real quadratic fields of relative class number 1

Debopam Chakraborty, Anupam Saikia (2014)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

The relative class number H d ( f ) of a real quadratic field K = ℚ (√m) of discriminant d is defined to be the ratio of the class numbers of f and K , where K denotes the ring of integers of K and f is the order of conductor f given by + f K . R. Mollin has shown recently that almost all real quadratic fields have relative class number 1 for some conductor. In this paper we give a characterization of real quadratic fields with relative class number 1 through an elementary approach considering the...

Minimal 𝒮 -universality criteria may vary in size

Noam D. Elkies, Daniel M. Kane, Scott Duke Kominers (2013)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

In this note, we give simple examples of sets 𝒮 of quadratic forms that have minimal 𝒮 -universality criteria of multiple cardinalities. This answers a question of Kim, Kim, and Oh [KKO05] in the negative.

Perfect unary forms over real quadratic fields

Dan Yasaki (2013)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

Let F = ( d ) be a real quadratic field with ring of integers 𝒪 . In this paper we analyze the number h d of GL 1 ( 𝒪 ) -orbits of homothety classes of perfect unary forms over F as a function of d . We compute h d exactly for square-free d 200000 . By relating perfect forms to continued fractions, we give bounds on h d and address some questions raised by Watanabe, Yano, and Hayashi.

On some identities involving spherical means

Gianfranco Cimmino (1989)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti

Similarity:

For every positive definite quadratic form in n variables the reciprocal of the square root of the discriminant is equal to the arithmetic mean of the values assumed by the form on the n - 1 sphere centered at 0 and with radius 1 raised to the ( - n 2 )-th. power. Various consequences are deduced from this, in particular a simplification of some calculations from which one obtains the possibility of solving linear systems using spherical means rather than determinants.

Optimality of the Width- w Non-adjacent Form: General Characterisation and the Case of Imaginary Quadratic Bases

Clemens Heuberger, Daniel Krenn (2013)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Similarity:

We consider digit expansions j = 0 - 1 Φ j ( d j ) with an endomorphism Φ of an Abelian group. In such a numeral system, the w -NAF condition (each block of w consecutive digits contains at most one nonzero) is shown to minimise the Hamming weight over all expansions with the same digit set if and only if it fulfills the subadditivity condition (the sum of every two expansions of weight 1 admits an optimal w -NAF). This result is then applied to imaginary quadratic bases, which are used for scalar...

Quadratic differentials ( A ( z - a ) ( z - b ) / ( z - c ) 2 ) d z 2 and algebraic Cauchy transform

Mohamed Jalel Atia, Faouzi Thabet (2016)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We discuss the representability almost everywhere (a.e.) in of an irreducible algebraic function as the Cauchy transform of a signed measure supported on a finite number of compact semi-analytic curves and a finite number of isolated points. This brings us to the study of trajectories of the particular family of quadratic differentials A ( z - a ) ( z - b ) ( z - c ) - 2 d z 2 . More precisely, we give a necessary and sufficient condition on the complex numbers a and b for these quadratic differentials to have finite critical...

Isometries of quadratic spaces

Eva Bayer-Fluckiger (2015)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

Let k be a global field of characteristic not 2, and let f k [ X ] be an irreducible polynomial. We show that a non-degenerate quadratic space has an isometry with minimal polynomial f if and only if such an isometry exists over all the completions of k . This gives a partial answer to a question of Milnor.

Capturing forms in dense subsets of finite fields

Brandon Hanson (2013)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

An open problem of arithmetic Ramsey theory asks if given an r-colouring c:ℕ → 1,...,r of the natural numbers, there exist x,y ∈ ℕ such that c(xy) = c(x+y) apart from the trivial solution x = y = 2. More generally, one could replace x+y with a binary linear form and xy with a binary quadratic form. In this paper we examine the analogous problem in a finite field q . Specifically, given a linear form L and a quadratic form Q in two variables, we provide estimates on the necessary size...
