Abstract

:

In this paper we generalize Jacobsons results by proving that any integer ๐›ผ in ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘), (๐‘‘ > 0, ๐‘‘ is a square-free integer), belong to๐‘Š๐‘ก. All units of ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) are generated by the fundamental unit ๐œ€๐‘›, (๐‘› โ‰ฅ 0) having the forms

๐œ€ = ๐‘ก + โˆš๐‘‘, ๐‘‘ โ‰ข 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4)

๐œ€ =[(2๐‘ก โˆ’ 1) + โˆš๐‘‘]

2 , ๐‘‘ โ‰ก 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4) our generalization build on using the conditions

๐‘ก + 1 = ๐œ€ ยฑ ๐œ€โˆ’1+ (1 โˆ’ ๐‘ก), ๐‘ก = ๐œ€ ยฑ ๐œ€โˆ’1+ (1 โˆ’ ๐‘ก).

This leads us to classify the real quadratic fields ๐‘„โˆš๐‘‘ into the sets ๐‘Š1, ๐‘Š2, ๐‘Š3โ€ฆ Jacobsons results shows that ๐‘„โˆš2, ๐‘„โˆš5 โˆˆ ๐‘Š1 and Sliwa confirm that ๐‘„โˆš2 and ๐‘„โˆš5 are the only real quadratic fields in ๐‘Š1.

Keywords: Fundamental units of real quadratic field, Integers of real quadratic field as sum of finite units, Real quadratic fields.

Introduction:

Thereal quadratic fields ๐‘„(๐œƒ) of degree two over the rational numbers with ๐œƒ = ๐‘‘, where ๐‘‘ > 0 and ๐‘‘ is a square free integer for if ๐œƒ = โˆš๐‘‘ is a root of the quadratic polynomial

๐‘ฅ2+ 2๐‘Ž๐‘ฅ + ๐‘ = 0

This leads to state that any integer ๐›ผ โˆˆ ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) has the forms

๐›ผ = ๐‘Ž + ๐‘โˆš๐‘‘, ๐‘‘ โ‰ข 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4) ๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ ๐›ผ = (๐‘Ž + ๐‘โˆš๐‘‘)/2 , ๐‘‘ โ‰ก 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4) The fundamental unit of ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) has also the forms ๐œ€ = ๐‘ก + โˆš๐‘‘ , ๐‘‘ โ‰ข 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4)

๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ ๐œ€ = [(2๐‘ก โˆ’ 1) + โˆš๐‘‘)/2, ๐‘‘ โ‰ก 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4)

The base of any integer ๐›ผ โˆˆ ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘), ๐‘‘ โ‰ข 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4) is of the form < 1, ๐‘โˆš๐‘‘ > and the base of any integer ๐›ผ โˆˆ ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) with ๐‘‘ โ‰ก 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4) is< 1, ๐‘(1 + โˆš๐‘‘)/2 >.

According to ๐‘‘ โ‰ข 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4)๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ ๐‘‘ โ‰ก 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4), where norm(๐œ€) = ๐‘(๐œ€) = ๐œ€๐œ€ฬ… = ยฑ1 and ๐œ€ฬ… is the conjugate of ๐œ€.

B. Jacobsons (1) used the conditions 2 = ๐œ€1โˆ’ ๐œ€1โˆ’1

2 = ๐œ€2+ ๐œ€2โˆ’2 ... (1)

and proved that any integer ๐›ผ โˆˆ ๐‘„(โˆš2) and ๐‘„(โˆš5) are written as a sum of distinct units, where ๐œ€1 = 1 + โˆš2, ๐œ€2= (1 + โˆš5)/2 are the fundamental units of ๐‘„(โˆš2) and ๐‘„(โˆš5) respectively on the other words ๐‘„(โˆš2), ๐‘„(โˆš5) โˆˆ ๐‘Š1.Sliwa (2) proved that no other real quadratic fields belong to ๐‘Š1. Belcher (3) and (4) showed that there are seven real pure cubic fields ๐‘„(๐œƒ), ๐œ—3= ๐‘‘ = ๐‘š3ยฑ 1, with negative discriminate belong to๐‘Š1 and infinitely many quantic fields in ๐‘Š๐‘ก, ๐‘ก โ‰ฅ 1. Goldsmith. Pabst and Scott (5) proved a similar result without the property of being distinct units. The sum of unit of numbers of rings of quadratic field also discussed by Ashrafi and Vamos (6). Further result given by Christopher (7) showing that for every positive integer N, there exists elements of the ring R which cannot be expressed as sum of at most N units. Our result depends on using the conditions

(2)

and proving that any real quadratic field ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) belong to the set ๐‘Š๐‘ก, ๐‘ก โ‰ฅ 1.

Preliminary Results and Definitions

Our main result depend on generalizing conditions in (1) to be

2๐‘ก = ๐œ€ ยฑ ๐œ€โˆ’1, ๐‘ก โ‰ฅ 1. which becomes

๐‘ก + 1 = ๐œ€ ยฑ ๐œ€โˆ’1+ (1 โˆ’ ๐‘ก), โ€ฆ (2) when๐‘‘ โ‰ข 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4) and

๐‘ก = ๐œ€ ยฑ ๐œ€โˆ’1+ (1 โˆ’ ๐‘ก), โ€ฆ (3) when๐‘‘ โ‰ก 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4).

Def 2.1: We define ๐‘Š๐‘ก, ๐‘ก โ‰ฅ 1 to be the set of all real quadratic fields ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) in which every integer ๐›ผ โˆˆ ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) is represented as a sum of units with at most t- repititions.

Def 2.2:An integer ๐›ผ โˆˆ ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) is called t-integer, if ๐›ผ can be written as a finite sum of units of ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) with at most t-repetitions.

Def 2.3: An integer ๐›ผ โˆˆ ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) is called a strong t -integer if it is a t-integer and expressible as a sum of at most (t +1) units of ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘).

Def 2.4: We define the set ๐‘Š๐‘ก, (๐‘ก โ‰ฅ 1) to be the set of all real quadratic fields ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) such that every integer of ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) is a t-integer.

Def 2.5: Any positive integer ๐‘› โ‰ฅ 1 is called square free integer if ๐‘› is of the form

๐‘› = ๐‘1. ๐‘2โ€ฆ ๐‘๐‘Ÿ

where๐‘1, ๐‘2, โ€ฆ ๐‘๐‘Ÿ are distinct prime numbers.

Theorem 2.1 (4): If ๐‘„(๐œƒ) is a real algebraic field with one fundamental ๐œ€ > 1 say, then a necessary condition for ๐‘„(๐œƒ) to be in ๐‘Š1 is that ๐œ€ < 3.

More general than theorem (2.1) (4) is the following result.

Theorem 2.2: If ๐‘„(๐œƒ) is a real field and having one fundamental unit ๐œ€ > 1, โˆ‹ ๐‘„(๐œƒ) โˆˆ ๐‘Š๐‘ก then ๐œ€ < 2๐‘ก + 1.

Proof: Since any integer in ๐‘Š๐‘ก is a t-integer, then we can write (t +1) in the form

t + 1 = cpฮตp+ โ‹ฏ + cqฮตq, โ€ฆ (4)

where p, q โˆˆ ๐›ง and |๐‘๐‘–| โ‰ค ๐‘ก for all ๐‘–, (p โ‰ค ๐‘– โ‰ค q). The form (1) is the polynomial

๐‘๐‘›๐œ€๐‘›+ ๐‘

๐‘›โˆ’1๐œ€๐‘›โˆ’1+ โ‹ฏ + ๐‘0= 0 โ€ฆ (5) with๐‘๐‘›, ๐‘0โ‰  0, ๐‘๐‘–โˆˆ ๐›ง and at most one of the ๐‘๐‘– = ยฑ(2๐‘ก + 1) and the rest of the coefficients less than or equal to t. Therefore (5) implies that

๐œ€๐‘› โ‰ค ๐‘

๐‘›๐œ€๐‘›โ‰ค (2๐‘ก + 1)๐œ€๐‘›โˆ’1+ ๐‘ก๐œ€๐‘›โˆ’1

๐œ€ โˆ’ 1 ๐œ€ โ‰ค (2๐‘ก + 1) + ๐‘ก

๐œ€ โˆ’ 1 ๐œ€(๐œ€ โˆ’ 1) โ‰ค (2๐‘ก + 1)(๐œ€ โˆ’ 1) + ๐‘ก ๐œ€(๐œ€ โˆ’ 1) < (2๐‘ก + 1)๐œ€ โˆ’ (2๐‘ก + 1) + ๐‘ก

๐œ€ โˆ’ 1 < (2๐‘ก + 1) โˆ’(๐‘ก + 1) ๐œ€

๐œ€ < 2๐‘ก + 2 โˆ’(๐‘ก + 1) ๐œ€

since๐‘ก + 1 โ‰ฅ 2, ๐‘กโ„Ž๐‘’๐‘› โˆ’(๐‘ก+1)๐œ€ โ‰คโˆ’2๐œ€ , ๐‘กโ„Ž๐‘’๐‘Ÿ๐‘’๐‘“๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ๐‘’

๐œ€ < (2๐‘ก + 2) โˆ’(๐‘ก + 1)

๐œ€ โ‰ค 2๐‘ก + (2 โˆ’ 2 ๐œ€) where as ๐œ€ > 1, ๐‘กโ„Ž๐‘’๐‘› 2๐œ€ โ‰… 1,

โˆด ๐œ€ < 2๐‘ก + 1

The result of theorem (2.1) (4) above follows when ๐‘ก = 1 i.e ๐œ€ < 3 and ๐œ€ < 2๐‘ก + 1 is valid for all ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆˆ ๐‘Š๐‘ก, ๐‘ก โ‰ฅ 1.

The Main Results

Our main result of this paper is given by the following theorem:

Theorem 3.1: If ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) has the fundamental unit ๐œ€ = ๐‘ก + โˆš๐‘‘ ๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ [(2๐‘ก โˆ’ 1) + โˆš๐‘‘]/2 according to ๐‘‘ โ‰ข 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4)๐‘œ๐‘Ÿ ๐‘‘ โ‰ก 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4), then ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆˆ ๐‘Š๐‘ก, (๐‘ก โ‰ฅ 1)

Proof: The proof is built on using the conditions (2), (3) given above.

Assume that ๐›ผ any integer in ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘ ) โˆ‹ ๐›ผ = โˆ‘๐‘ž ๐‘Ž๐‘–๐œ€๐‘–

๐‘–=๐‘ โ€ฆ (6)

with๐‘Ž๐‘–, ๐‘, ๐‘ž โˆˆ ๐›ง, (p โ‰ค ๐‘– โ‰ค q), ๐‘Ž๐‘– = 0 if ๐‘– โˆ‰ [p, q], we consider the case (I)

(i) ๐‘‘ โ‰ข 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4), ๐‘(๐œ€) = 1 and ( t+1) is a strong t-integer in ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) which is ๐‘ก + 1 = ๐œ€ + ๐œ€โˆ’1+ (1 โˆ’ ๐‘ก).

Suppose that ๐›ผ in (6) is such that โˆ‘๐‘ž๐‘–=๐‘|๐‘Ž๐‘–| = ๐‘š, ๐‘š โ‰ฅ 1,

and๐‘š minimal, we shall proceed by induction on m, if m=1, then

โˆ‘|๐‘Ž๐‘–| = 1, ๐‘ž

๐‘–=๐‘

and ๐‘Ž๐‘– = 0, ยฑ1, therefore ๐›ผ is 1-integer (t=1) see definition (1).

Assume that, as in induction hypothesis, that for all ๐›ผ โˆˆ ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) and

๐›ผ = โˆ‘|๐‘Ž๐‘–|, ๐‘š < ๐‘€, (๐‘€ โ‰ฅ 2),

and we prove it for all ๐›ผ โˆˆ ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) with m = M , by writing

(๐‘ก + 1)๐œ€๐‘˜= ๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’1+ (1 โˆ’ ๐‘ก)๐œ€๐‘˜+ ๐œ€๐‘˜+1, ( pโ‰ค ๐‘˜ โ‰ค q) and suppose that ๐‘Ž๐‘˜ is the first coefficient in (6) such that |๐‘Ž๐‘˜| โ‰ฅ ๐‘ก + 1 and |๐‘Ž๐‘˜โˆ’1| โ‰ค ๐‘ก for all k and apply the condition (2) to the term ๐‘Ž๐‘˜๐œ€๐‘˜, then ๐›ผ becomes

๐›ผ = ๐‘Ž๐‘๐œ€๐‘+ โ‹ฏ + (๐‘Ž

๐‘˜โˆ’1+ 1)๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’1+ (1 โˆ’ ๐‘ก)๐œ€๐‘˜+ ๐œ€๐‘˜+1+ โ‹ฏ + ๐‘Ž

๐‘ž๐œ€๐‘ž โ€ฆ (7)

or๐›ผ = ๐‘Ž๐‘๐œ€๐‘+ โ‹ฏ + (๐‘Ž๐‘˜โˆ’1โˆ’ 1)๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’1+ (๐‘ก โˆ’ 1)๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’ ๐œ€๐‘˜+1+ โ‹ฏ + ๐‘Ž

(3)

according as ๐‘Ž๐‘˜ = ยฑ(๐‘ก + 1). Since|๐‘Ž๐‘˜โˆ’1| โ‰ค ๐‘ก, then if necessary we need to repeat the application of condition (2) on (7) or (8), which implies that either ๐›ผ = ๐‘Ž๐‘๐œ€๐‘+ โ‹ฏ + (๐‘Ž

๐‘˜โˆ’2+ 1)๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’2+ (1 โˆ’ ๐‘ก)๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’1+ (2 โˆ’ ๐‘ก)๐œ€๐‘˜+ ๐œ€๐‘˜+1+ โ‹ฏ + ๐‘Ž

๐‘ž๐œ€๐‘ž โ€ฆ (9) o๐‘Ÿ ๐›ผ = ๐‘Ž๐‘๐œ€๐‘+ โ‹ฏ + (๐‘Ž๐‘˜โˆ’2โˆ’ 1)๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’2+ (๐‘ก โˆ’ 1)๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’1+ (๐‘ก โˆ’ 2)๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’ ๐œ€๐‘˜+1+ โ‹ฏ + ๐‘Ž

๐‘ž๐œ€๐‘žโ€ฆ (10)

According as๐‘Ž๐‘˜โˆ’1= ยฑ๐‘ก, by taking โ€“ ๐›ผ in (7) and (8), if necessary we obtain that|๐‘Ž๐‘˜โˆ’1ยฑ 1| โ‰ฅ ๐‘ก + 1. Again and in similar application of (2) ๐›ผ will be of the form (9) or (10). If we continue

applying (2) to (9) and (10) to the term (๐‘Ž๐‘˜โˆ’2ยฑ 1)๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’2 , then after that a finite number of applications we get that ๐›ผ of the form

๐›ผ = โˆ‘๐‘—โ‰ค๐‘˜๐‘๐‘—๐œ€๐‘—+ โˆ‘๐‘–โ‰ฅ๐‘˜+1๐‘๐‘–๐œ€๐‘– โ€ฆ (11)

where 0 < |๐‘๐‘—| โ‰ค ๐‘ก, and |๐‘๐‘–| โ‰ค ๐‘ก + 1, this reduce every coefficient ๐‘Ž๐‘– with ๐‘– โ‰ค ๐‘˜ to the coefficient ๐‘๐‘—, |๐‘๐‘—| โ‰ค ๐‘ก and some of the ๐‘๐‘— non-zero, this shows that

โˆ‘|๐‘๐‘—| โ‰ค โˆ‘ |๐‘๐‘–| ๐‘–โ‰ฅ๐‘˜+1 ๐‘—โ‰ค๐‘˜

andโˆ‘๐‘—โ‰ค๐‘˜|๐‘๐‘—|+ โˆ‘๐‘–โ‰ฅ๐‘˜+1|๐‘๐‘–|โ‰ค ๐‘€ and because M is minimal then

โˆ‘|๐‘๐‘—| ๐‘—โ‰ค๐‘˜

+ โˆ‘ |๐‘๐‘–| ๐‘–โ‰ฅ๐‘˜+1

= ๐‘€

since โˆ‘๐‘—โ‰ค๐‘˜|๐‘๐‘—|> 0, then โˆ‘๐‘–โ‰ฅ๐‘˜+1|๐‘๐‘–|< ๐‘€. Apply the induction to

๐›ผโˆ—= โˆ‘ ๐‘ ๐‘–๐œ€๐‘– ๐‘–โ‰ฅ๐‘˜+1 then๐›ผ will be a t-integer.

(ii) If N(๐œ€) = โˆ’1, then condition (2) consider to be

๐‘ก + 1 = ๐œ€ โˆ’ ๐œ€โˆ’1+ (1 โˆ’ ๐‘ก),

and a similar procedure of (i) will lead to show that ๐›ผ is a t-integer.

(II) If ๐‘‘ โ‰ก 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4) and (i) N(๐œ€) = 1 and considering condition (3), which is ๐‘ก + 1 = ๐œ€ + ๐œ€โˆ’1+ (2 โˆ’ ๐‘ก), and apply (๐œ€) on ๐›ผ โˆˆ ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆ‹

๐›ผ = โˆ‘ ๐‘Ž๐‘–๐œ€๐‘– ๐‘ž

๐‘

Then by following the induction steps on โˆ‘|๐‘Ž๐‘–| = ๐‘š, m minimal and writing

(๐‘ก + 1)๐œ€๐‘˜ = ๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’1+ (2 โˆ’ ๐‘ก)๐œ€๐‘˜+ ๐œ€๐‘˜+1, (pโ‰ค ๐‘˜ โ‰ค q) โ€ฆ (12)

In a similar procedure of case (I) after the application of condition (3), ๐›ผ will be either of the form

๐›ผ = ๐‘Ž๐‘๐œ€๐‘+ โ‹ฏ + (๐‘Ž

๐‘˜โˆ’1+ 1)๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’1+ (2 โˆ’ ๐‘ก)๐œ€๐‘˜+ ๐œ€๐‘˜+1+ โ‹ฏ + ๐‘Ž

๐‘ž๐œ€๐‘ž โ€ฆ (13)

Or ๐›ผ = ๐‘Ž๐‘๐œ€๐‘+ โ‹ฏ + (๐‘Ž๐‘˜โˆ’1โˆ’ 1)๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’1+ (๐‘ก โˆ’ 2)๐œ€๐‘˜โˆ’ ๐œ€๐‘˜+1+ โ‹ฏ + ๐‘Ž

๐‘ž๐œ€๐‘ž โ€ฆ (14) According as ๐‘Ž๐‘˜ = ยฑ(๐‘ก + 1). This implies that

๐›ผ = โˆ‘ ๐‘‘๐‘—๐œ€๐‘—+ โˆ‘ ๐‘’๐‘–๐œ€๐‘– ๐‘–โ‰ฅ๐‘˜+1 ๐‘—โ‰ค๐‘˜

with|๐‘‘๐‘—| โ‰ค ๐‘ก, โˆ‘๐‘–โ‰ฅ๐‘˜+1|๐‘’๐‘–| โ‰ฅ ๐‘ก + 1 and some of the ๐‘‘๐‘— non-zero and hence

โˆ‘|๐‘‘๐‘—| + โˆ‘ |๐‘’๐‘–| = ๐‘€ ๐‘–โ‰ฅ๐‘˜+1

๐‘—โ‰ค๐‘˜

and this completes the induction steps. Therefore ๐›ผ is a t-integer.

(ii) A similar procedure can be followed by considering the condition (3) with N(๐œ€) = โˆ’1 and applying

๐‘ก + 1 = ๐œ€ โˆ’ ๐œ€โˆ’1+ (2 โˆ’ ๐‘ก),

which also, imply that ๐›ผ is a t-integer too. As an immediate consequence of theorem (3.1). Corollary 3.1: Any integer of ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘), ๐‘‘ > 0 expressible as a t-integer, ๐‘ก โ‰ฅ 1.

Corollary 3.2:If ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆˆ ๐‘Š๐‘ก+1\๐‘Š๐‘ก, then every integer of ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) is a t-integer plus a single unit. Corollary (2) implies that ๐‘„(โˆš13) belong to ๐‘Š2 and not in ๐‘Š1 since the fundamental unit of ๐‘„(โˆš13) is ๐œ€ = (3 + โˆš13)/2 , ๐‘(๐œ€) = โˆ’1 and

3 = ๐œ€ โˆ’ ๐œ€โˆ’1 โ€ฆ (15) 2 = ๐œ€ โˆ’ ๐œ€โˆ’1โˆ’ 1 โ€ฆ (16)

and by theorem (2),๐œ€ = [(2๐‘ก โˆ’ 1) + โˆš13]/2, with t = 2 for if ๐›ผ โˆˆ ๐‘„(โˆš13) โˆ‹

๐›ผ = โˆ’๐œ€โˆ’1+ 2 + ๐œ€ Apply (16), then ๐›ผ becomes

๐›ผ = โˆ’๐œ€โˆ’1+ (๐œ€ โˆ’ ๐œ€โˆ’1โˆ’ 1) + ๐œ€ ๐›ผ = โˆ’2๐œ€โˆ’1+ 2๐œ€ โˆ’ 1 again apply (16), then

๐›ผ = โˆ’(๐œ€ โˆ’ ๐œ€โˆ’1โˆ’ 1)๐œ€โˆ’1+ (๐œ€ โˆ’ ๐œ€โˆ’1โˆ’ 1)๐œ€ โˆ’ 1

by simplifying this , then

๐›ผ = ๐œ€โˆ’2+ ๐œ€โˆ’1โˆ’ ๐œ€ + ๐œ€2โˆ’ 3 put3 = ๐œ€ โˆ’ ๐œ€โˆ’1, ๐‘กโ„Ž๐‘’๐‘›

๐›ผ = ๐œ€โˆ’2+ 2๐œ€โˆ’1+ ๐œ€ + 1 ๐›ผ = (๐œ€โˆ’2+ ๐œ€โˆ’1+ ๐œ€ + 1) + ๐œ€โˆ’1

This last form of ๐›ผ shows that ๐‘„(โˆš13) โˆˆ ๐‘Š๐‘ก+1/๐‘Š๐‘ก and t = 1.

Theorem 3.2: suppose that ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘), ๐‘‘ > 0 with fundamental unit ๐œ€ = ๐‘ก + ๐‘ โˆš๐‘‘or ๐œ€ = [(2๐‘ก โˆ’ 1) + ๐‘ โˆš๐‘‘ ]/2, then ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆˆ ๐‘Š๐‘ก\๐‘Š๐‘กโˆ’1, (๐‘ก > 1).

where ๐‘š โ‰ฅ 1, ๐œ€๐‘šโˆ’1> 1. Therefore

1 โ‰ค๐‘ก โˆ’ 1 ๐œ€ โˆ’ 1+

๐‘ก ๐œ€ ๐œ€2โˆ’ 2๐‘ก๐œ€ + ๐‘ก โ‰ค 0 since ๐œ€ = ๐‘ก + โˆš๐‘ก2ยฑ 1, then

๐œ€ โ‰ค ๐‘ก + โˆš๐‘ก2โˆ’ ๐‘ก < ๐‘ก + โˆš๐‘ก2โˆ’ 1 โ‰ค ๐œ€

a contradiction. By the same way and if ๐‘‘ โ‰ก 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4), we get

2๐œ€ โ‰ค (2๐‘ก โˆ’ 1) + โˆš(2๐‘ก โˆ’ 1)2โˆ’ 4๐‘ก

< (2๐‘ก โˆ’ 1) + โˆš(2๐‘ก โˆ’ 1)2โˆ’ 4 = 2๐‘ก

also, a contradiction. Hence ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆˆ ๐‘Š๐‘กโˆ’1, (๐‘ก > 1).

Theorem 3.3: There are a finite number of ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆˆ ๐‘Š๐‘ก, ๐‘ก โˆˆ ๐‘.

Proof:If ๐‘‘ โ‰ข 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4) and ๐œ€ = ๐‘ก + โˆš๐‘‘ is the fundamental unit of ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘), ๐‘‘ > 0 the proof

followed by showing ๐‘ก โˆˆ (๐œ€โˆ’12 ,๐œ€+12 ). from theorem (2.2) we have that

๐œ€ < 2๐‘ก + 1, (๐‘ก โ‰ฅ 1) By writing

2๐‘ก = ๐œ€ ยฑ ๐œ€โˆ’1 2๐‘ก โˆ’ 1 < ๐œ€ < 2๐‘ก + 1

๐œ€ โˆ’ 1 2 < ๐‘ก <

๐œ€ + 1 2 Therefore,

๐‘ก โˆ’ 1 < โˆš๐‘‘ < ๐‘ก + 1

and if ๐‘‘ โ‰ก 1(๐‘š๐‘œ๐‘‘4) we get also and by the same way

๐‘ก โˆ’ 1 <1 + โˆš๐‘‘

2 < ๐‘ก + 1

Thus, therefore finite number of ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆˆ ๐‘Š๐‘ก.

Conclusion:

The conclusion of our result is declared by some of the real quadratic fields below by applying theorem (3.1) and considering the fundamental unit ๐œ€ โˆˆ ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘), where both ๐‘„(โˆš3), ๐‘„(โˆš13) โˆˆ ๐‘Š2, follows from corollary (3.2).

๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆˆ ๐‘Š1, ๐‘‘ = 2,5 ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆˆ ๐‘Š2, ๐‘‘ = 3, 13

๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆˆ ๐‘Š3, ๐‘‘ = 10, 21, 29 ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆˆ ๐‘Š4, ๐‘‘ = 15, 53

๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆˆ ๐‘Š5, ๐‘‘ = 26, 77,82, 85 ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘) โˆˆ ๐‘Š6, ๐‘‘ = 35

As an open question there is a possibility to represent integers of imaginary quadratic fields ๐‘„(โˆš๐‘‘), ๐‘‘ < 0, ๐‘‘ = โˆ’1, โˆ’2, โˆ’3 as sum of units of this field of certain repetition ๐‘ก, ๐‘ก โ‰ฅ 1. this may also classifying the imaginary fields in ๐‘Š๐‘ก.
