AbstractWe construct certain elements in the motivic cohomology group $H^3_{\mathcal{M}}(E\times E',\mathbb{Q}(2))$, where $E$ and $E'$ are elliptic curves over $\mathbb{Q}$. When $E$ is not isogenous to $E'$ these elements are analogous to circular units in real quadratic fields, as they come from modular parametrizations of the elliptic curves. We then find an analogue of the class-number formula for real quadratic fields, which specializes to the usual quadratic class-number formula when $E$ and $E'$ are quadratic twists.AMS 2000 Mathematics subject classification: Primary 11F67; 14G35.

Abstract Given a closed geodesic on a compact arithmetic hyperbolic surface, we show the existence of a sequence of Laplacian eigenfunctions whose integrals along the geodesic exhibit nontrivial growth. Via Waldspurger’s formula we deduce a lower bound for central values of Rankin-Selberg L-functions of Maass forms times theta series associated to real quadratic fields.

Abstract We investigate the number of curves having a rational point of almost minimal height in the family of quadratic twists of a given elliptic curve. This problem takes its origin in the work of Hooley, who asked this question in the setting of real quadratic fields. In particular, he showed an asymptotic estimate for the number of such fields with almost minimal fundamental unit. Our main result establishes the analogue asymptotic formula in the setting of quadratic twists of a fixed elliptic curve.

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.
