In this paper, we introduce a method of determining whether the primitive ideal is principal in a real quadratic order, depending on the solvability of Pell’s equation.

1. Let D be a positive square-free integer. Throughout this note we shall use the following notations;d = d(D): the discriminant of ,t0, u0: the least positive solution of Pell’s equation t2 — du2 = 4,

AbstractIn this paper, we use the Lagrange neighbour and our equivalence theorem for primitive ideals to obtain lower bounds which are sharper than those given in the literature for class numbers of real quadratic fields in general, but applied to greatest advantage when d is of ERD type.

The aim of this paper is to prove the following main theorem: THEOREM. For the discriminant d>0 of a real quadratic field let (x,y) = (t,u) be the least positive integral solution of Pell’s equation x2 — dy2 = 4 and put and denote by hd the ideal class number.

We describe the primitive ideal space of the C*-algebra of a row-finite k-graph with no sources when every ideal is gauge invariant. We characterize which spectral spaces can occur, and compute the primitive ideal space of two examples. In order to do this we prove some new results on aperiodicity. Our computations indicate that when every ideal is gauge invariant, the primitive ideal space only depends on the 1-skeleton of the k-graph in question.

AbstractWe look at the simple continued fraction expansion of √D for any D = 2hc where c > 1 is odd with a goal of determining necessary and sufficient conditions for the central norm (as determined by the infrastructure of the underlying real quadratic order therein) to be 2h. At the end of the paper, we also address the case where D = c is odd and the central norm of √D is equal to 2.

E. C. Posner (5) has shown that a ring R is primitive if and only if the corresponding matrix ring Mn(R) is primitive. From this result he is able to deduce that the primitive ideals in Mn(R) are precisely those ideals of the form Mn(P), where P is a primitive ideal in R. This affords an alternative proof that the Jacobson radical of Mn(R) is Mn(J), where J is the Jacobson radical of R. But Patterson (3, 4) has shown that this last result does not hold in general for rings of infinite matrices and thus that the above result concerning primitive ideals cannot be extended to the infinite case. Nevertheless in this paper we are able to show that Posner's result on primitive rings does extend to infinite matrix rings. Patterson's result depends on showing that if the Jacobson radical J of R is not right vanishing then a certain matrix with entries from J does not lie in the Jacobson radical of the infinite matrix ring. In the final section of this paper we consider a ring R with this property and exhibit a primitive ideal in the infinite matrix ring, which does not arise, as above, from a primitive ideal in R. Finally the Jacobson radical of this ring is determined.

We describe primitive and prime ideals in the C*-algebra C*(E) of a graph E satisfying Condition (K), together with the topologies on each of these spaces. In particular, we find that primitive ideals correspond to the set of maximal tails disjoint union the set of finite-return vertices, and that prime ideals correspond to the set of clusters of maximal tails disjoint union the set of finite-return vertices.
