Some Results Connected with the Class Number Problem in Real Quadratic Fields

We investigate arithmetic properties of certain subsets of square-free positive integers and obtain in this way some results concerning the class number h（d） of the real quadratic field Q（√d）. In particular, we give a new proof of the result of Hasse, asserting that in this case h（d） = 1 is possible only if d is of the form p, 2q or qr. where p.q. r are primes and q≡r≡3（mod 4）.     

Purely periodic -expansions with Pisot unit base

Let 1$"> be a Pisot unit. A family of sets defined by a -numeration system has been extensively studied as an atomic surface or Rauzy fractal. For the purpose of constructing a Markov partition, a domain constructed by an atomic surface has appeared in several papers. In this paper we show that the domain completely characterizes the set of purely periodic -expansions.

Class groups of imaginary function fields: The inert case

Let be a finite field and a transcendental element over . An imaginary function field is defined to be a function field such that the prime at infinity is inert or totally ramified. For the totally imaginary case, in a recent paper the second author constructed infinitely many function fields of any fixed degree over in which the prime at infinity is totally ramified and with ideal class numbers divisible by any given positive integer greater than 1. In this paper, we complete the imaginary case by proving the corresponding result for function fields in which the prime at infinity is inert. Specifically, we show that for relatively prime integers and , there are infinitely many function fields of fixed degree such that the class group of contains a subgroup isomorphic to and the prime at infinity is inert.

     

Knots with unknotting number one and Heegaard Floer homology

We use Heegaard Floer homology to give obstructions to unknotting a knot with a single crossing change. These restrictions are particularly useful in the case where the knot in question is alternating. As an example, we use them to classify all knots with crossing number less than or equal to nine and unknotting number equal to one. We also classify alternating knots with 10 crossings and unknotting number equal to one.     

Generalized triangulations and diagonal-free subsets of stack polyominoes

For n?3, let Ω_n be the set of line segments between vertices in a convex n-gon. For j?1, a j-crossing is a set of j distinct and mutually intersecting line segments from Ω_n such that all 2j endpoints are distinct. For k?1, let Δ_n,k be the simplicial complex of subsets of Ω_n not containing any (k+1)-crossing. For example, Δ_n,1 has one maximal set for each triangulation of the n-gon. Dress, Koolen, and Moulton were able to prove that all maximal sets in Δ_n,k have the same number k(2n-2k-1) of line segments. We demonstrate that the number of such maximal sets is counted by a k×k determinant of Catalan numbers. By the work of Desainte-Catherine and Viennot, this determinant is known to count quite a few other objects including fans of non-crossing Dyck paths. We generalize our result to a larger class of simplicial complexes including some of the complexes appearing in the work of Herzog and Trung on determinantal ideals.
