چکیده

(here b and a run over the quadratic nonresidues and quadratic residues, respectively, that lie between 0 and p) is a unit of the real quadratic field R(y/p), and that 77> 1. The fact that -n > 1 is usually deduced from the theory of the classnumber of quadratic fields. We present a short proof independent of the theory of the class-number. As in the paper of Chowla and Mordell [Note on the nonvanishing of L(l), Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 12 (1961), 283-284], we have tj^I since 7,(1)^0 (proved in the paper cited) in the relation [ibid. ] (1) r, = exp{S7(l)}, where P(l) = X¡i" (n|/>)»-1 and S = Zï (« | ¿>)0". Here (n\p) is Legendre's symbol. From the theory of the Gaussian sum,

On the real quadratic fields with certain continued fraction expansions and fundamental units

The purpose of this paper is to investigate the real quadratic number fields $Q(sqrt{d})$ which contain the specific form of the continued fractions expansions of integral basis element  where $dequiv 2,3( mod  4)$ is a square free positive integer. Besides, the present paper deals with determining the fundamental unit$$epsilon _{d}=left(t_d+u_dsqrt{d}right) 2left.right > 1$$and  $n_d$ and $m_d...
