As an interpretation and a generalization of Gauss’ genus theory on binary quadratic forms in the language of arithmetic of algebraic tori, Ono [02] established an equality between a kind of “Euler number E(K/k)” for a finite Galois extension K/k of algebraic number fields and other arithmetical invariants associated to K/k. His proof depended on his Tamagawa number formula [01] and Shyr’s formula [Sh] which follows from the analytic class number formula of a torus. Later, two direct proofs were given by Katayama [K] and Sasaki [Sa].

Let [Formula: see text] be a positive definite (non-classic) integral quaternary quadratic form. We say [Formula: see text] is strongly[Formula: see text]-regular if it satisfies a strong regularity property on the number of representations of squares of integers. In this paper, we show that there are exactly [Formula: see text] strongly [Formula: see text]-regular diagonal quaternary quadratic forms representing [Formula: see text] (see Table [Formula: see text]). In particular, we use eta-quotients to prove the strong [Formula: see text]-regularity of the quaternary quadratic form [Formula: see text], which is, in fact, of class number [Formula: see text] (see Lemma 4.5 and Proposition 4.6).

This paper proves that ifNis a nonnegative eligible integer, coprime to 7, which is not of the formx2+y2+7z2, thenNis square-free. The proof is modelled on that of a similar theorem by Ono and Soundararajan, in which relations between the number of representations of an integernp2by two quadratic forms in the same genus, thepth coefficient of anL-function of a suitable elliptic curve, and the class number formula prove the theorem for large primes, leaving 3 cases which are easily numerically verified.

Based on the analogy between links and primes, we present an analogue of the Iwasawa's class number formula in a Zp-extension for the p-homology groups of pn-fold cyclic covers of a link in a rational homology 3-sphere. We also describe the associated Iwasawa invariants precisely for some examples and discuss analogies with the number field case.

AbstractDifferent types of number theories such as elementary number theory, algebraic number theory and computational number theory; algebra; cryptology; security and also other scientific fields like artificial intelligence use applications of quadratic fields. Quadratic fields can be separated into two parts such as imaginary quadratic fields and real quadratic fields. To work or determine the structure of real quadratic fields is more difficult than the imaginary one.The Dirichlet class number formula is defined as a special case of a more general class number formula satisfying any types of number field. It includes regulator, ℒ-function, Dedekind zeta function and discriminant for the field. The Dirichlet’s class number h(d) formula in real quadratic fields claims that we have h\left(d \right).log {\varepsilon _d} = \sqrt {\Delta} {\scr L} \left({1,\;{\chi _d}}\right) for positive d > 0 and the fundamental unit ɛd of {\rm{\mathbb Q}}\left({\sqrt d} \right) . It is seen that discriminant, ℒ-function and fundamental unit ɛd are significant and necessary tools for determining the structure of real quadratic fields.The focus of this paper is to determine structure of some special real quadratic fields for d > 0 and d ≡ 2,3 (mod4). In this paper, we provide a handy technique so as to calculate particular continued fraction expansion of integral basis element wd, fundamental unit ɛd, and so on for such real quadratic number fields. In this paper, we get fascinating results in the development of real quadratic fields.
