Kummer congruences arising from the mirror symmetry of an elliptic curve

In the genus 1 case, mirror symmetry reduces to the statement that a certain family of generating functions, relating to an elliptic curve, are quasimodular. In their proof of this fact, Kaneko and Zagier used a related family of generating functions $A_n(τ)$, which they show to be quasimodular. We show that these $A_n$'s also satisfy Kummer-type congruences. Additionally, we show that for a prime $p$, the $p$th power coefficients of $A_n$ $p$-adically converge to zero, for specific values of $n$.

Imaginary quadratic fields with 2-class group of type $(2,2^\ell)$

We prove that for any given positive integer $\ell$ there are infinitely many imaginary quadratic fields with 2-class group of type $(2,2^\ell)$, and provide a lower bound for the number of such groups with bounded discriminant for $\ell\ge2$. This work is based on a related result for cyclic 2-class groups by Dominguez, Miller and Wong, and our proof proceeds similarly. Our proof requires introducing congruence conditions into Perelli's result on Goldbach numbers represented by polynomials, which we establitish in some generality.
