    Ray class invariants over imaginary quadratic fields

    Full text link
    Let KK be an imaginary quadratic field of discriminant less than or equal to -7 and K(N)K_{(N)} be its ray class field modulo NN for an integer NN greater than 1. We prove that singular values of certain Siegel functions generate K(N)K_{(N)} over KK by extending the idea of our previous work. These generators are not only the simplest ones conjectured by Schertz, but also quite useful in the matter of computation of class polynomials. We indeed give an algorithm to find all conjugates of such generators by virtue of Gee and Stevenhagen

    The structure of gauge-invariant ideals of labelled graph Cβˆ—C^*-algebras

    In this paper, we consider the gauge-invariant ideal structure of a Cβˆ—C^*-algebra Cβˆ—(E,L,B)C^*(E,\mathcal{L},\mathcal{B}) associated to a set-finite, receiver set-finite and weakly left-resolving labelled space (E,L,B)(E,\mathcal{L},\mathcal{B}), where L\mathcal{L} is a labelling map assigning an alphabet to each edge of the directed graph EE with no sinks. Under the assumption that an accommodating set B\mathcal{B} is closed under taking relative complement, it is obtained that there is a one to one correspondence between the set of all hereditary saturated subsets of B\mathcal{B} and the gauge-invariant ideals of Cβˆ—(E,L,B)C^*(E,\mathcal{L},\mathcal{B}). For this, we introduce a quotient labelled space (E,L,[B]R)(E,\mathcal{L},[\mathcal{B}]_R) arising from an equivalence relation ∼R\sim_R on B\mathcal{B} and show the existence of the Cβˆ—C^*-algebra Cβˆ—(E,L,[B]R)C^*(E,\mathcal{L},[\mathcal{B}]_R) generated by a universal representation of (E,L,[B]R)(E,\mathcal{L},[\mathcal{B}]_R). Also the gauge-invariant uniqueness theorem for Cβˆ—(E,L,[B]R)C^*(E,\mathcal{L},[\mathcal{B}]_R) is obtained. For simple labelled graph Cβˆ—C^*-algebras Cβˆ—(E,L,EΛ‰)C^*(E,\mathcal{L},\bar{\mathcal{E}}), where EΛ‰\bar{\mathcal{E}} is the smallest accommodating set containing all the generalized vertices, it is observed that if for each vertex vv of EE, a generalized vertex [v]l[v]_l is finite for some ll, then Cβˆ—(E,L,EΛ‰)C^*(E,\mathcal{L},\bar{\mathcal{E}}) is simple if and only if (E,L,EΛ‰)(E,\mathcal{L},\bar{\mathcal{E}}) is strongly cofinal and disagreeable. This is done by examining the merged labelled graph (F,LF)(F,\mathcal{L}_F) of (E,L)(E,\mathcal{L}) and the common properties that Cβˆ—(E,L,EΛ‰)C^*(E,\mathcal{L},\bar{\mathcal{E}}) and Cβˆ—(F,L,FΛ‰)C^*(F,\mathcal{L},\bar{\mathcal{F}}) share
