O jedenáctém a dvanáctém Hilbertově problému
For a number field , let denote its Hilbert -class field, and put . We will determine all imaginary quadratic number fields such that is abelian or metacyclic, and we will give in terms of generators and relations.
Let p be an odd prime number. We prove the existence of certain infinite families of imaginary quadratic fields in which p splits and for which the Iwasawa λ-invariant of the cyclotomic ℤₚ-extension is equal to 1.
We give a family of -polynomials with integer coefficients whose splitting fields over are unramified cyclic quintic extensions of quadratic fields. Our polynomials are constructed by using Fibonacci, Lucas numbers and units of certain cyclic quartic fields.
A large number of papers have contributed to determining the structure of the tame kernel of algebraic number fields F. Recently, for quadratic number fields F whose discriminants have at most three odd prime divisors, 4-rank formulas for have been made very explicit by Qin Hourong in terms of the indefinite quadratic form x² - 2y² (see [7], [8]). We have made a successful effort, for quadratic number fields F = ℚ (√(±p₁p₂)), to characterize in terms of positive definite binary quadratic forms,...
Let be a totally real algebraic number field whose ring of integers is a principal ideal domain. Let be a totally definite ternary quadratic form with coefficients in . We shall study representations of totally positive elements by . We prove a quantitative formula relating the number of representations of by different classes in the genus of to the class number of , where is a constant depending only on . We give an algebraic proof of a classical result of H. Maass on representations...
