We will show that there exist infinitely many imaginary quadratic number fields with discriminant divisible by $n$ and-at the same time-having an element of order $n$ in the class group. We will also prove certain results on the divisibility of $r(N)$, where $r(N)$ is the representation numbers of $N$ as sums of three squares. Namely, we will show that for a given squarefree positive odd integer $n$ there exist infinitely many $N$ such that $n$ divides both $N$ and $r(N)$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-01-20T06:28:35.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "11R11", "11R29", "11R70" ], "keywords": [ "imaginary quadratic fields", "class numbers", "squarefree positive odd integer", "discriminant", "divisibility" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2016arXiv160105180L" } } }
