cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

A308420 Squarefree numbers d of the form s^2 + r, where r divides 4s, such that Q(sqrt(d)) has class number 1.

Comments

This sequence is finite, but might not be given in full if the generalized Riemann hypothesis is false.

Examples

			Since 7 = 3^2 - 2 (note that 2 is a divisor of 4 * 9) and h(Z[sqrt(7)]) = 1, 7 is in the sequence.
Although 10 = 3^2 + 1, we see that h(Z[sqrt(10)]) > 1 since Z[sqrt(10)] is not a unique factorization domain (e.g., 10 = 2 * 5 = sqrt(10)^2). So 10 is not in the sequence.
Although h(Z[sqrt(19)]) = 1, there is no way to express 19 as s^2 + r, e.g., 19 = 3^2 + 10 but 10 is not a divisor of 12, 19 = 4^2 + 3 but 3 is not a divisor of 16, 19 = 5^2 - 6 but 6 is not a divisor of 20, 19 = 6^2 - 17 but -17 does not divide 24. So 19 is not in the sequence either.

Given "a fundamental discriminant of ERD-type with radicand D," the ring of Q(sqrt(D)) has class number 1 "if and only if D" is one of the values listed above, "with one possible exceptional value whose existence would be a counterexample to the GRH" (generalized Riemann hypothesis).

Formula

Given d = s^2 + r where r | 4s (this is called "extended Richaud-Degert type" or "ERD-type" by Mollin), d is in this sequence if h(O_Q(sqrt(d))) = 1, where h(O_K) is the class number of the ring of algebraic integers O_K.
