AbstractLet d > 1 be a square-free integer. Power residue criteria for the fundamental unit εd of the real quadratic fields modulo a prime p (for certain d and p) are proved by means of class field theory. These results will then be interpreted as criteria for the solvability of the negative Pell equation x2 − dp2y2 = −1. The most important solvability criterion deals with all d for which has an elementary abelian 2-class group and p ≡ 5 (mod 8) or p ≡ 9 (mod 16).

Let K be a real biquadratic field and let k be a quadratic field with odd class number contained in K. The aim of this article is to determine the rank of the 2-class group of K and we give applications to the structure of the 2-class group of some biquadratic fields and to the 2-class field tower of some real quadratic fields. Résumé: Soient K un corps biquadratique réel et k un sous-corps quadratique de K dont le nombre de classes est impair. Dans ce papier on détermine le rang du 2-groupe de classes de K et on donne des applications à la structure du 2-groupe de classes de certains corps biquadratiques et aussi à la tour des 2-corps de classes de Hilbert de certains corps quadratiques réels.

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.
