Notice

In each summer semester at least one of the courses [MAT-40-24-K-4], [MAT-40-25-K-4] or [MAT-40-29-K-4] is offered.

Possible Study achievement

  • Verification of study performance: proof of successful participation in the exercise classes (ungraded)
  • Examination number (Study achievement): 84008 ("Exercise Class Quadratic Number Fields")
  • Details of the examination (type, duration, criteria) will be announced at the beginning of the course.

Contents

  • structure of imaginary quadratic number fields,
  • ideals and ideal class groups,
  • Ideals as geometric lattices,
  • finiteness of the ideal class group.

Literature

  • I.N. Stewart, D.O. Tall: Algebraic Number Theory,
  • M. Trifković: Algebraic Theory of Quadratic Numbers.

Materials

Further literature will be announced in the lecture; Exercise material is provided.

Registration

Registration for the exercise classes via the online administration system URM (https://urm.mathematik.uni-kl.de)

Requirements for attendance (informal)

More advanced knowledge from the courses [MAT-12-22-K-3] and [MAT-12-21-K-3] is useful but not necessarily required.
