The period-index problem in WC-groups IV: a local transition theorem

Pete L. Clark (2010)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Let K be a complete discretely valued field with perfect residue field k . Assuming upper bounds on the relation between period and index for WC-groups over k , we deduce corresponding upper bounds on the relation between period and index for WC-groups over K . Up to a constant depending only on the dimension of the torsor, we recover theorems of Lichtenbaum and Milne in a “duality free” context. Our techniques include the use of LLR models of torsors under abelian varieties with good reduction and...

The R₂ measure for totally positive algebraic integers

V. Flammang (2016)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Let α be a totally positive algebraic integer of degree d, i.e., all of its conjugates α = α , . . . , α d are positive real numbers. We study the set ₂ of the quantities ( i = 1 d ( 1 + α ² i ) 1 / 2 ) 1 / d . We first show that √2 is the smallest point of ₂. Then, we prove that there exists a number l such that ₂ is dense in (l,∞). Finally, using the method of auxiliary functions, we find the six smallest points of ₂ in (√2,l). The polynomials involved in the auxiliary function are found by a recursive algorithm.

The reduced ideals of a special order in a pure cubic number field

Abdelmalek Azizi, Jamal Benamara, Moulay Chrif Ismaili, Mohammed Talbi (2020)

Archivum Mathematicum

Let K = ( θ ) be a pure cubic field, with θ 3 = D , where D is a cube-free integer. We will determine the reduced ideals of the order 𝒪 = [ θ ] of K which coincides with the maximal order of K in the case where D is square-free and ¬ ± 1 ( mod 9 ) .
