  Quadratic field
The quadratic subfield of the prime cyclotomic field
A classical example of the construction of a quadratic field is to take the unique quadratic field inside the cyclotomic field generated by a primitive p-th root of unity, with p a prime number > 2.
As explained at Gaussian period, the discriminant of the quadratic field is p for p = 4n + 1 and −p for p = 4n + 3.

 Connections between Cubic and Dual Quadratic Fields
Since discriminants of quadratic fields are essentially squarefree (possibly up to their 2-power contribution), one of two dual discriminants is divisible by 3, the other is not.
The collection of all quadratic number fields is the disjoint union of all dual pairs up to a single exception.
Here, the non-primary principal ideal cube lies in the quadratic field k with negative discriminant d and is characterized by a lower bar.

Abstract: The distribution of classgroups C of imaginary quadratic fields F is conjectured to obey the following rule: C appears with probability (or rather: frequency) proportional to 1/Aut(C).
Abstract: We consider abelian extensions K of Q (the rationals) which are their own genus field and whose Galois group is the product of l cyclic groups of odd prime order p; we are interested in obtaining divisibilities of the class number of K by high powers of p.
We prove here the minus part of Chinburg's third conjecture for imaginary abelian fields of l-power conductor with a technical condition on the prime l, and the full conjecture for real abelian fields of l-power conductor, where now the prime l is arbitrary.

One might ask whether it is possible to find quadratic polynomials with arbitrarily long strings of consecutive prime values; that is whether, for any given N can we find A for which n^2+n+A is prime for n=0,1,2...
In this paper we are primarily interested in further developing the theory of quadratic polynomials for which many of the small values are prime (rather than ``all'' as in Rabinowitsch's result).
It is well-known that if the class number of some imaginary quadratic field with large discriminant is one then we will have an egregious counterexample to the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis (that is, a zero of the associated Dirichlet L-function which is very close to 1, a weak consequence of the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis).

Quadratic reciprocity law in imaginary quadratic number fields
We use these formulas to give explicit expressions for the generalized Gauss lemma and the Legendre quadratic symbol defined over the ring of integers of the quadratic number field.
As a consequence, we obtain a generalization of the Gauss reciprocity law in the case where the field of definition is a quadratic imaginary number field.

In the 1970s Saito and Kurokawa conjectured (based on numerical evidence) the existence of a Hecke equivariant lifting from the space of classical cusp forms to the space of Siegel modular forms.
The conjecture was proved in a special case by Wiles in 1995 and his result was later extended by Breuil, Conrad, Diamond, Skinner, Taylor and Wiles to a larger class of Galois representations.
My research is concerned with proving modularity for Galois representations of the absolute Galois group of an imaginary quadratic field.

In particular, for one dimensional subvarieties of certain Drinfeld Jacobians we prove the analogue of the degree conjecture (i.e., bounds on the degree of the optimal modular parametrization), and improve the bound on the degree of the minimal discriminant in terms of the degree of the conductor due to Szpiro.
In this talk, we associate canonically to every imaginary quadratic field $K=\Bbb Q(\sqrt{-D})$ one or two isogenous classes of CM (complex multiplication) abelian varieties over $K$, depending on whether $D$ is odd or even ($D \ne 4$).
These abelian varieties are characterized as of smallest dimension and smallest conductor, and such that the abelian varieties themselves descend to $\Bbb Q$.

For curves defined over the complex numbers, this can only mean that End(E) is isomorphic to an order in some imaginary quadratic field.
Turning the problem around, we can fix an order R in some imaginary quadratic field K and then ask which elliptic curves have R as their endomorphism ring.
It turns out that the j-invariants of these curves are conjugate algebraic integers and can be readily calculated by working out the class group of K (and using Mathematica).

Shown below are pictures of the 3-dimensional orbifolds which are the quotient of hyperbolic 3-space by the Bianchi group PGL(2,O) where O is the ring of integers in the imaginary quadratic field of discriminant D=-3, -4, -7, -8, -11, -15, -19, -20, -23, -24, -31, -35, -39, -47, -51, -56, -59, -68, -71.
In each of these cases the orbifold is topologically the 3-sphere with punctures (shown as tiny circles), and the pictures show the singular locus of the orbifold structure.
