On the S-Euclidean minimum of an ideal class

Kevin J. McGown (2015)

Acta Arithmetica

We show that the S-Euclidean minimum of an ideal class is a rational number, generalizing a result of Cerri. In the proof, we actually obtain a slight refinement of this and give some corollaries which explain the relationship of our results with Lenstra's notion of a norm-Euclidean ideal class and the conjecture of Barnes and Swinnerton-Dyer on quadratic forms. In particular, we resolve a conjecture of Lenstra except when the S-units have rank one. The proof is self-contained but uses ideas from...

On units of some fields of the form ( 2 , p , q , - l )

Mohamed Mahmoud Chems-Eddin (2023)

Mathematica Bohemica

Let p 1 ( mod 8 ) and q 3 ( mod 8 ) be two prime integers and let { - 1 , p , q } be a positive odd square-free integer. Assuming that the fundamental unit of ( 2 p ) has a negative norm, we investigate the unit group of the fields ( 2 , p , q , - ) .

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

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 multiplication in elliptic...
