Ternary quadratic forms over number fields with small class number
نویسندگان
چکیده
We enumerate all positive definite ternary quadratic forms over number fields with class number at most 2. This is done by constructing all definite quaternion orders of type number at most 2 over number fields. Finally, we list all definite quaternion orders of ideal class number 1 or 2.

One class genera of ternary quadratic forms over number fields
We enumerate all one class genera of definite ternary quadratic forms over number fields. For this, we construct all Gorenstein orders of type number one in definite quaternion algebras over number fields. Finally, we list all definite quaternion orders of ideal class number one.
متن کاملOn 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...
متن کامل2-universal Hermitian Lattices over Imaginary Quadratic Fields
We call a positive definite integral quadratic form universal if it represents all positive integers. Then Lagrange’s Four Square Theorem means that the sum of four squares is universal. In 1930, Mordell [M] generalized this notion to a 2-universal quadratic form: a positive definite integral quadratic form that represents all binary positive definite integral quadratic forms, and showed that t...
متن کاملClifford Algebras and Shimura ’ S Lift for Theta - Series Fedor Andrianov
Automorph class theory formalism is developed for the case of integral nonsingular quadratic forms in an odd number of variables. As an application, automorph class theory is used to construct a lifting of similitudes of quadratic Z-modules of arbitrary nondegenerate ternary quadratic forms to morphisms between certain subrings of associated Clifford algebras. The construction explains and gene...
متن کاملThe Gauss Class Number Problem for Imaginary Quadratic Fields
a result first proved by Heilbronn [H] in 1934. The Disquisitiones also contains tables of binary quadratic forms with small class numbers (actually tables of imaginary quadratic fields of small class number with even discriminant which is a much easier problem to deal with) and Gauss conjectured that his tables were complete. In modern parlance, we can rewrite Gauss’ tables (we are including b...
