Summary Gaussian integer is one of basic algebraic integers. In this article we formalize some definitions about Gaussian integers [27]. We also formalize ring (called Gaussian integer ring), Z-module and Z-algebra generated by Gaussian integer mentioned above. Moreover, we formalize some definitions about Gaussian rational numbers and Gaussian rational number field. Then we prove that the Gaussian rational number field and a quotient field of the Gaussian integer ring are isomorphic.

It is commonly accepted that the knowledge and learning of rational numbers is more complex than that of the whole number field. This complexity includes the broader range of application of rational numbers, the increased level of technical complexity in the mathematical structure and symbol systems of this field and the more complex nature of many conceptual properties of the rational number field. Research on rational number learning is divided as to whether children’s difficulties in learning rational numbers arise only from the increased complexity or also include elements of conceptual change. This article argues for a fundamental conceptual difference between whole and rational numbers. It develops the position that rational numbers are fundamentally relational in nature and that the move from absolute counts to relative comparisons leads to a further level of abstraction in our understanding of number and quantity. The argument is based on a number of qualitative, in-depth research projects with children and adults. These research projects indicated the importance of such a relational understanding in both the learning and teaching of rational numbers, as well as in adult representations of rational numbers on the number line. Acknowledgement of such a conceptual change could have important consequences for the teaching and learning of rational numbers.

Abstract We prove that the integer part of the reciprocal of the tail of $\zeta (s)$ ζ ( s ) at a rational number $s=\frac{1}{p}$ s = 1 p for any integer with $p \geq 5$ p ≥ 5 or $s=\frac{2}{p}$ s = 2 p for any odd integer with $p \geq 5$ p ≥ 5 can be described essentially as the integer part of an explicit quantity corresponding to it. To deal with the case when $s=\frac{2}{p}$ s = 2 p , we use a result on the finiteness of integral points of certain curves over $\mathbb{Q}$ Q .

Let K be a totally real algebraic number field of degree n > 1, and let OK be the maximal order. We denote by гk, the Hilbert modular group SL2(OK) associated with K. On the extent of the weight of an automorphy factor for гK, some restrictions are imposed, not as in the elliptic modular case. Maass [5] showed that the weight is integral for K = ℚ(√5). It was shown by Christian [1] that for any Hilbert modular group it is a rational number with the bounded denominator depending on the group.

AbstractLet m = pe be a power of a prime number p. We say that a number field F satisfies the property when for any a ∈ F×, the cyclic extension F(ζm, a1/m)/F(ζm) has a normal p-integral basis. We prove that F satisfies if and only if the natural homomorphism is trivial. Here K = F(ζm), and denotes the ideal class group of F with respect to the p-integer ring of F.

Let Q be the rational number field, K/Q be a maximal Abelian extension whose degree is some power of a prime l, and let f(K) be the conductor of K/Q; if l = 2, let K be complex, and if in addition f(K) ≡ 0 (mod 2), let f(K) ≡ 0 (mod 16). Denote by (K) the Geschlechtermodul of K over Q and by K̂ the maximal central l-extension of K/Q contained in the ray class field mod (K) of K. A. Fröhlich [1, Theorem 4] completely determined the Galois group of K̂ over Q in purely rational terms. The proof is based on [1, Theorem 3], though he did not write the proof in the case f(K) ≡ 0 (mod 16). Moreover he gave a classification theory of all class two extensions over Q whose degree is a power of l. Hence we know the set of fields of nilpotency class two over Q, because a finite nilpotent group is a direct product of all its Sylow subgroups. But the theory becomes cumbersome, and it is desirable to reconstruct a more elementary one.

The purpose of this paper is to give the limit formula of the Kronecker’s type for a non-holomorphic Eisenstein series with respect to a Hubert modular group in the case of an arbitrary algebraic number field. Actually, we shall generalize the following result which is well-known as the first Kronecker’s limit formula. From our view-point, this classical case is corresponding to the case of the rational number field Q.

In this paper, we shall give explicit Z-basis of certain maximal orders of definite quaternion algebras over the rational number field Q (See Theorems below). We shall also give some remarks on symmetric maximal orders in Ponomarev [9] and Hashimoto [6] (Proposition 4.3). More precise contents are as follows. Let D be a division quaternion algebra over Q.
