Fields with small class group in the family $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{9m^2+2m})$

Abstract

Very recently, Issa and Darrag [Arch. Math. (Basel) 123 (2024), no. 4, 379-383] determined partial Dedekind zeta values for certain ideal classes in the real quadratic fields of the form $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{9m^2+2m})$, where $9m^2+2m$ is square-free and $m\equiv 2\pmod 3$ is an odd positive integer. We use these partial Dedekind zeta values to investigate the small class numbers of such fields. More precisely, we prove that the class numbers of the fields in the above mentioned family are at least $4$. Further, we provide a sufficient condition permitting to specify the structure of the class groups of order $4$ in this family of fields.

Asymptotic density of k-almost primes

Landau's well known asymptotic formula $$N_k(x):=\ \mid\{n\leq x : Ω(n)=k\}\mid \ \sim \left( \frac{x}{\log x} \right) \frac{(\log\log x)^{k-1}}{(k - 1)!}\ \ (x \rightarrow \infty),$$ which also holds for $$π_k(x):=\ \mid\{n\leq x : ω(n)=k\}\mid,$$ is known to be fairly poor for $k > 1$, and when $k$ is allowed to tend to infinity with $x$, the study of $N_k(x)$ and $π_k(x)$ becomes very technical [1, Chapter II.6, $§$ 6.1, p.200]. I hope to show that the method described below provides not only a more accurate approach, but rather increases in its asymptotic accuracy as $k$ tends to infinity.

Transcendence Meets Normality: Construction of Transcendentally Normal Numbers

In this work, we study real numbers $x$ for which $p(x)$ is (absolutely) normal for every non-constant integer-valued polynomial $p$. We call such numbers transcendentally normal. We prove that almost every real number is transcendentally normal and provide an explicit construction of such a number, based on Sierpinski's covering method and novel ideas involving the so-called stretch function. In the next step, we transform this construction into an algorithm that computes the digits of a t-normal number recursively in all integer bases. Moreover, we extend our covering approach to construct and compute LIL-normal numbers whose discrepancies are of the order predicted by the law of the iterated logarithm. We also take the opportunity to discuss several interesting open problems.
