- Vol. 5, Iss: 4, pp 271-286
TLDR
In this article, necessary and sufficient conditions for representing certain classes of primes by given quadratic forms are found by generalizing techniques of rational number theory, and the main result is that if m = 5 or 13, and if p is a rational prime such that ( − 1 p ) = 1 = ( m p ), then a necessary and necessary condition that x 2 + 4 my 2 = p for some rational integers x and y is that [ ϵ m p ] = 1, where ϵm denotes the fundamental unit of the field Q(m 1

On the number of incongruent residues of x4+ax2+bx modulo p

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors mainly determine the number V p (x 4 + a x 2 + b x ) of incongruent residues of the modulo p and reveal the connections with elliptic curves over the field F p of p elements.

On the quadratic character of quadratic units

TL;DR: In this paper, the congruences for quadratic residue (mod p) were established for the Lucas sequence, where U n is a Lucas sequence defined by U 0 = 0, U 1 = 1 and U n + 1 = b U n+k 2 U n − 1 ( n ⩾ 1 ).
