The Arithmetic of Number Rings
Algorithmic Number Theory MSRI Publications Volume 44, 2008 The arithmetic of number rings PETER STEVENHAGEN ABSTRACT. We describe the main structural results on number rings, that is, integral domains for which the field of fractions is a number field. Whenever possible, we avoid the algorithmically undesirable hypothesis that the number ring in question is integrally closed. CONTENTS 1. Introduction 209 2. Number rings 211 3. Localization 214 4.

Introduction The ring Z of ‘ordinary’ integers lies at the very root of number theory, and when studying its properties, the concept of divisibility of integers naturally leads to basic notions as primality and congruences. By the ‘fundamental the- orem of arithmetic’, Z admits unique prime factor decomposition of nonzero integers. Though one may be inclined to take this theorem for granted, its proof 209 210 PETER STEVENHAGEN is not completely trivial: it usually employs the Euclidean algorithm to show that the prime numbers, which are defined as irreducible elements having only ‘trivial’ divisors, are prime elements that only divide a product of integers if they divide one of the factors. In the time of Euler, it gradually became clear that in solving problems con- cerning integers, it can be effective to pass from Z to larger rings that are not contained in the field Q of rational numbers but in number fields, that is, in finite field extensions of Q. -

The lecture builds on the lecture Commutative Algebra from the previous term, the lecture notes of which are available on http://maths.pratum.net. The lecture provides an introduction to the most basic classical topics of (global) algebraic number theory: first cases of Fermat’s Last Theorem, • norms, traces and discriminants of field extensions, • rings of integers, • ideal arithemtic and ideal class groups, • Dedekind rings, • fundamentals of the geometry of numbers, • finiteness of the class number, • Dirichlet’s Unit Theorem. • In preparing these lectures we used several sources: Neukirch: Algebraische Zahlentheorie, Springer-Verlag. • Samuel: Algebraic Theory of Numbers. • Bas Edixhoven: Théorie algébrique des nombres (2002), Lecture notes available on Edix- • hoven’s webpage. Peter Stevenhagen: Number Rings, Lecture notes available on Stevenhagen’s webpage. • Lecture notes of B.H.

What Can Be Computed in Algebraic Geometry?
What Can Be Computed in Algebraic Geometry? Dave Bayer ∗ David Mumford May 7, 1992 This paper evolved from a long series of discussions between the two authors, going backto around 1980, on the problems of makingeffective computations in algebraic geometry, and it tookmore definite shape in a survey talkgiven by the second author at a conference on Computer Algebra in 1984. The goal at that time was to bring together the perspectives of theoretical computer scientists and of working algebraic geometers, while laying out what we considered to be the main computational problems and bounds on their complexity. Only part of the talkwas written down and since that time there has been a good deal of progress. However, the material that was written up may still serve as a useful introduction to some of the ideas and estimates used in this field (at least the editors of this volume thinkso), even though most of the results included here are either published elsewhere, or exist as “folk-theorems” by now. The article has four sections. The first two parts are concerned with the theory of Gr¨obner bases; their construction provides the foundation for most computations, and their complexity dominates the complexity of most techniques in this area. The first part introduces Gr¨obner bases from a geometric point of view, relating them to a number of ideas which we take up in more detail in subsequent sections. The second part develops the theory of Gr¨obner bases more carefully, from an algebraic point of view. It could be read independently, and requires less background.
