On a conjecture of Iizuka

For a given odd positive integer $n$ and an odd prime $p$, we construct an infinite family of quadruples of imaginary quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$, $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d+1})$, $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d+4})$ and $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d+4p^2})$ with $d\in \mathbb{Z}$ such that the class number of each of them is divisible by $n$. Subsequently, we show that there is an infinite family of quintuples of imaginary quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d})$, $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d+1})$, $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d+4})$, $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d+36})$ and $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{d+100})$ with $d\in \mathbb{Z}$ whose class numbers are all divisible by $n$. Our results provide a complete proof of Iizuka's conjecture (in fact a generalization of it) for the case $m=1$. Our results also affirmatively answer a weaker version of (a generalization of) Iizuka's conjecture for $m\geq 4$.

On the exponents of class groups of some families of imaginary quadratic fields

Let $a\geq 1$ and $n>1$ be odd integers. For a given prime $p$, we prove under certain conditions that the class groups of imaginary quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{a^2-4p^n})$ have a subgroup isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$. We also show that this family of fields has infinitely many members with the property that their class groups have a subgroup isomorphic to $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$. In addition, we deduce some unconditional results concerning the divisibility of the class numbers of certain imaginary quadratic fields. At the end, we provide some numerical examples to verify our results.

On the solutions of certain Lebesgue-Ramanujan-Nagell equations

We completely solve the Diophantine equation $x^2+2^k11^\ell19^m=y^n$ in integers $x,y\geq 1;~ k,\ell, m\geq 0~$ and $n\geq 3$ with $\gcd(x,y)=1$, except the case $2\mid k, 2\nmid \ell m$ and $5\mid n$. We use this result to recover some earlier results in the same direction.

On the Diophantine equation $cx^2+p^{2m}=4y^n$

Let $c$ be a square-free positive integer and $p$ a prime satisfying $p\nmid c$. Let $h(-c)$ denote the class number of the imaginary quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-c})$. In this paper, we consider the Diophantine equation $$cx^2+p^{2m}=4y^n,~~x,y\geq 1, m\geq 0, n\geq 3, \gcd(x,y)=1, \gcd(n,2h(-c))=1,$$ and we describe all its integer solutions. Our main tool here is the prominent result of Bilu, Hanrot and Voutier on existence of primitive divisors in Lehmer sequences.

An analogue of Wilton's formula and values of Dedekind zeta functions

J. R. Wilton obtained an expression for the product of two Riemann zeta functions. This expression played a crucial role to find the approximate functional equation for the product of two Riemann zeta functions in the critical region. We find analogous expressions for the product of two Dedekind zeta functions and then use these expressions to find some expressions for Dedekind zeta values attached to arbitrary real as well as quadratic number fields at any positive integer.

On the structure of order 4 class groups of $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{n^2+1})$

Groups of order $4$ are isomorphic to either $\mathbb{Z}/4\mathbb{Z}$ or $\mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z} \times \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z}$. We give certain sufficient conditions permitting to specify the structure of class groups of order $4$ in the family of real quadratic fields $\mathbb{Q}{(\sqrt{n^2+1})}$ as $n$ varies over positive integers. Further, we compute the values of Dedekind zeta function attached to these quadratic fields at the point $-1$. As a side result, we show that the size of the class group of this family could be made as large as possible by increasing the size of the number of distinct odd prime factors of $n$.

Divisibility of Selmer groups and class groups

In this paper, we study two topics. One is the divisibility problem of class groups of quadratic number fields and its connections to algebraic geometry. The other is the construction of Selmer group and Tate-Shafarevich group for an abelian variety defined over a number field.

Some aspects of quasi-pseudo principally injective modules

In this paper, the notion of quasi-pseudo injectivity relative to a class of submodules, namely, quasi-pseudo principally injective has been studied. This notion is closed under direct summands. Several properties and characterizations have been given. In particular, we characterize Noetherian Rings and Dedekind Domains by quasi-pseudo principally injectivity.

Exponents of class groups of certain imaginary quadratic fields

Let $n>1$ be an odd integer. We prove that there are infinitely many imaginary quadratic fields of the form $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{x^2-2y^n})$ whose ideal class group has an element of order $n$. This family gives a counter example to a conjecture by H. Wada \cite{WA70} on the structure of ideal class groups.

A note on certain real quadratic fields with class number upto three

We obtain criteria for the class number of certain Richaud-Degert type real quadratic fields to be 3. We also treat a couple of families of real quadratic fields of Richaud-Degert type that were not considered earlier, and obtain similar criteria for the class number of such fields to be 2 and 3.

Cyoclotomic Numbers Of Order 2l^2 With Prime L

The problem of determining cyclotomic numbers in terms of the solutions of certain Diophantine systems has been treated by many authors since the age of Gauss. In this paper we obtain an explicit expression for cyclotomic numbers of order 2l^2 in terms of the coefficients of the Jacobi sums of lower orders. At the end, we illustrate the nature of two matrices corresponding to two types of cyclotomic numbers.

Divisibility of class numbers of certain families of quadratic fields

We construct some families of quadratic fields whose class numbers are divisible by $3.$ The main tools used are a trinomial introduced by Kishi and a parametrization of Kishi and Miyake of a family of quadratic fields whose class numbers are divisible by $3.$ At the end we compute class number of these fields for some small values and verify our results.

On the divisibility of class numbers of quadratic fields and the solvability of Diophantine equations

In this paper we provide criteria for the insolvability of the Diophantine equation $x^2+D=y^n$. This result is then used to determine the class number of the quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-D})$. We also determine some criteria for the divisibility of the class number of the quadratic field $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{-D})$ and this result is then used to discuss the solvability of the Diophantine equation $x^2+D=y^n$.
