Abstract Let K be a number field defined by a monic irreducible polynomial F(X) ∈ ℤ [X], p a fixed rational prime, and νp the discrete valuation associated to p. Assume that F(X) factors modulo p into the product of powers of r distinct monic irreducible polynomials. We present in this paper a condition, weaker than the known ones, which guarantees the existence of exactly r valuations of K extending νp. We further specify the ramification indices and residue degrees of these extended valuations in such a way that generalizes the known estimates. Some useful remarks and computational examples are also given to highlight some improvements due to our result.

Let K = ℚ(α) be a number field generated by a complex root a of a monic irreducible polynomial ƒ (x) = x36 − m, with m ≠ ±1 a square free rational integer. In this paper, we prove that if m ≡ 2 or 3 (mod 4) and m ≠ ±1 (mod 9) then the number field K is monogenic. If m ≡ 1 (mod 4) or m ≡±1 (mod 9), then the number field K is not monogenic.

AbstractLet K = ℚ(α) be a number field generated by a complex root α of a monic irreducible polynomial f(x) = x24 – m, with m ≠ 1 is a square free rational integer. In this paper, we prove that if m ≡ 2 or 3 (mod 4) and m ≢∓1 (mod 9), then the number field K is monogenic. If m ≡ 1 (mod 4) or m ≡ 1 (mod 9), then the number field K is not monogenic.

Let [Formula: see text] be a pure number field generated by a complex root [Formula: see text] of a monic irreducible polynomial [Formula: see text] where [Formula: see text] is a square free rational integer, [Formula: see text] is a rational prime integer, and [Formula: see text] is a positive integer. In this paper, we study the monogenity of [Formula: see text]. We prove that if [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text] is monogenic. But if [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text] is not monogenic. Some illustrating examples are given.

Abstract We develop methods for constructing explicit generators, modulo torsion, of the $K_3$ -groups of imaginary quadratic number fields. These methods are based on either tessellations of hyperbolic $3$ -space or on direct calculations in suitable pre-Bloch groups and lead to the very first proven examples of explicit generators, modulo torsion, of any infinite $K_3$ -group of a number field. As part of this approach, we make several improvements to the theory of Bloch groups for $ K_3 $ of any field, predict the precise power of $2$ that should occur in the Lichtenbaum conjecture at $ -1 $ and prove that this prediction is valid for all abelian number fields.

AbstractWe show that any birational selfmap of a complex projective surface that has dynamical degree greater than one and is defined over a number field automatically satisfies the Bedford–Diller energy condition after a suitable birational conjugacy. As a consequence, the complex dynamics of the map is well behaved. We also show that there is a well-defined canonical height function.

In this paper, we consider number fields containing quadratic subfields with minimal index that is large relative to the discriminant of the number field. We give new upper bounds on the minimal index, and construct families with the largest possible minimal index.

AbstractLet K be a cyclic number field of odd degree over $${\mathbb {Q}}$$ Q with odd narrow class number, such that 2 is inert in $$K/{\mathbb {Q}}$$ K / Q . We define a family of number fields $$\{K(p)\}_p$$ { K ( p ) } p , depending on K and indexed by the rational primes p that split completely in $$K/{\mathbb {Q}}$$ K / Q , in which p is always ramified of degree 2. Conditional on a standard conjecture on short character sums, the density of such rational primes p that exhibit one of two possible ramified factorizations in $$K(p)/{\mathbb {Q}}$$ K ( p ) / Q is strictly between 0 and 1 and is given explicitly as a formula in terms of the degree of the extension $$K/{\mathbb {Q}}$$ K / Q . Our results are unconditional in the cubic case. Our proof relies on a detailed study of the joint distribution of spins of prime ideals.

Let 𝕏 be a finite group of primitive Dirichlet characters. Let ξ = ∑χ∈𝕏 aχ χ be a nonzero element of the group ring ℤ[𝕏]. We investigate the smallest prime q that is coprime to the conductor of each χ ∈ 𝕏 and that satisfies ∑χ∈𝕏 aχ χ(q) ≠ 0. Our main result is a nontrivial upper bound on q valid for certain special forms ξ. From this, we deduce upper bounds on the smallest unramified prime with a given splitting type in an abelian number field. For example, let K/ℚ be an abelian number field of degree n and conductor f. Let g be a proper divisor of n. If there is any unramified rational prime q that splits into g distinct prime ideals in ØK, then the least such q satisfies [Formula: see text].

Let R be an order in an algebraic number field. If R is a principal order, then many explicit results on its arithmetic are available. Among others, R is half-factorial if and only if the class group of R has at most two elements. Much less is known for non-principal orders. Using a new semigroup theoretical approach, we study half-factoriality and further arithmetical properties for non-principal orders in algebraic number fields.

For all number fields the failure of maximality for the Kummer extensions is bounded in a very strong sense. We give a direct proof (without relying on the Bashmakov–Ribet method) of the fact that if [Formula: see text] is a finitely generated and torsion-free multiplicative subgroup of a number field [Formula: see text] having rank [Formula: see text], then the ratio between [Formula: see text] and the Kummer degree [Formula: see text] is bounded independently of [Formula: see text]. We then apply this result to generalize to higher rank a theorem of Ziegler from 2006 about the multiplicative order of the reductions of algebraic integers (the multiplicative order must be in a given arithmetic progression, and an additional Frobenius condition may be considered).
