On complex quadratic fields wth class-number two

On a Class Number Formula for Real Quadratic Number Fields

For an even Dirichlet character , we obtain a formula for L(1;) in terms of a sum of Dirichlet L-series evaluated at s = 2 and s = 3 and a rapidly convergent numerical series involving the central binomial coeecients. We then derive a class number formula for real quadratic number elds by taking L(s;) to be the quadratic L-series associated with these elds.

On 2-class field towers of imaginary quadratic number fields

For a number field k, let k1 denote its Hilbert 2-class field, and put k2 = (k1)1. We will determine all imaginary quadratic number fields k such that G = Gal(k2/k) is abelian or metacyclic, and we will give G in terms of generators and relations.

Ternary quadratic forms over number fields with small class number

We enumerate all positive definite ternary quadratic forms over number fields with class number at most 2. This is done by constructing all definite quaternion orders of type number at most 2 over number fields. Finally, we list all definite quaternion orders of ideal class number 1 or 2.
