On the bounded generation of arithmetic
Let be a number field and be the ring of -integers in
. Morgan, Rapinchuck, and Sury have proved that if the group of units
is infinite, then every matrix in is a product of at most elementary matrices. We prove that under the
additional hypothesis that has at least one real embedding or contains
a finite place we can get a product of at most elementary matrices. If we
assume a suitable Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, then every matrix in is the product of at most elementary matrices if
has at least one real embedding, the product of at most elementary matrices
if contains a finite place, and the product of at most elementary
matrices in general
