On subfields of the cyclotomic field $\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_p)$
Let $p$ be an odd prime. Let $\zeta_p=e^{2\pi{\bf i}/p}$ and let $1\le k\le p-1$ be a divisor of $p-1$. Recently, when I learnt algebraic number theory, I met the following problem.
If we let
$$U_k=\{...

In the following I will describe a proposal for the p-adic expansion of the elements of the algebraic closure $\overline{\mathbb{Q}_p}$ of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. My question is if this "conjecture" has been ...

Class groups of orders
In Cox's book "Primes of the form $x^2 + ny^2$", he proves that in a quadratic imaginary field $K$, if $\mathcal O$ is an order of conductor $f \in \mathbb Z$, we have that the class group $\mathrm{Cl}...
