Construction of class fields over cyclotomic fields

Let $\ell$ and $p$ be odd primes. For a positive integer $\mu$ let $k_\mu$ be the ray class field of $k=\mathbb{Q}(e^{2\pi i/\ell})$ modulo $2p^\mu$. We present certain class fields $K_\mu$ of $k$ such that $k_\mu\leq K_\mu\leq k_{\mu+1}$, and find the degree of $K_\mu/k_\mu$ explicitly. And we also construct, in the sense of Hilbert, primitive generators of the field $K_\mu$ over $k_\mu$ by using Shimura's reciprocity law and special values of theta constants

Ray class fields generated by torsion points of certain elliptic curves

We first normalize the derivative Weierstrass $\wp'$-function appearing in Weierstrass equations which give rise to analytic parametrizations of elliptic curves by the Dedekind $\eta$-function. And, by making use of this normalization of $\wp'$ we associate certain elliptic curve to a given imaginary quadratic field $K$ and then generate an infinite family of ray class fields over $K$ by adjoining to $K$ torsion points of such elliptic curve. We further construct some ray class invariants of imaginary quadratic fields by utilizing singular values of the normalization of $\wp'$, as the $y$-coordinate in the Weierstrass equation of this elliptic curve, which would be a partial result for the Lang-Schertz conjecture of constructing ray class fields over $K$ by means of the Siegel-Ramachandra invariant

Gauss' form class groups and Shimura's canonical models

Let $N$ be a positive integer and $\Gamma$ be a subgroup of $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$ containing $\Gamma_1(N)$. Let $K$ be an imaginary quadratic field and $\mathcal{O}$ be an order of discriminant $D_\mathcal{O}$ in $K$. Under some assumptions, we show that $\Gamma$ induces a form class group of discriminant $D_\mathcal{O}$ (or, of order $\mathcal{O}$) and level $N$ if and only if there is a certain canonical model of the modular curve for $\Gamma$ defined over a suitably small number field. In this way we can find an interesting link between two different subjects.Comment: 18 page
