remark in milne's class field theory notes
The point is that it is one thing to show that two mathematical objects are isomorphic; it is another (stronger) thing to give a particular isomorphism between them. A rather concrete instance of thi …

Possible values for differences of primes
Since there are infinitely many primes, the set $K$ is certainly infinite, so in the expression $\frac{|K|}{|\mathbb{Z}^+|}$, you are attempting to divide two infinite cardinalities. This is not a me …

Ideal classes and integral similarity
A very belated answer to 1), but: I just saw that this is treated very nicely in Curtis and Reiner's Representation Theory of Finite Groups and Associative Algebras. Theorem 20.6 therein not only wor …

Elliptic curves and prime numbers
(Sorry, I misread the question at first.) The following result reduces your question to a problem of analytic number theory:
Theorem (Hasse-Deuring-Waterhouse): For a prime $p$ and $N \geq 1$ the fo …

Rational points over completions of a number field
Without loss of generality $X$ is affine, so embed it in projective space and apply the Bertini Theorem to conclude that $X$ contains a smooth, geometrically integral affine curve $C^{\circ}$ missing …

How probable is it that a rational prime will split into principal factors in a Galois numbe...
I believe that Felipe's answer is not correct. [Edit: rather, it is correct according to a different interpretation of the question. But my interpretation is also natural, I think.]
Say a prime $p$ …

Here is the MathSciNet review by Andrei D. Halanay:
The book under review is the first of a two-volume introduction to algebraic geometry. This first volume deals mostly with prerequisites, namely ho …

Finiteness of Obstruction to a Local-Global Principle
"Has there been further progress in this area since 1993?"
So far as I know, there has been no direct progress. I feel semi-confident that I would know if there had been a big breakthrough: Mazur wa …

Statements in group theory which imply deep results in number theory
The fundamental theorem of arithmetic (uniqueness of factorization of integers into primes) is an immediate consequence of the Jordan-Holder theorem on uniqueness of composition factors of finite grou …

Does $\pi_1(Spec(\mathbb{Z}[1/p]))$ depend on p?
The full etale fundamental groups in question are, I believe, complicated infinite profinite groups. (They are however "small" in the technical sense that they have only finitely many open normal sub …

possible CM-types of abelian varieties
I posted the following answer yesterday after only a quick skim of the question. When I read it with more care, it seemed to me to be the answer to a different question entirely. After having looked …

Which p-adic numbers are also algebraic?
The field $K_p = \mathbb{Q}_p \cap \overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ is a very natural and well-studied one. I can throw some terminology at you, but I'm not sure exactly what you want to know about it.
1) It …

Did Pogorzelski claim to have a proof of Goldbach's Conjecture?
In the 1970's Pogorzelski published a sequence of four papers in Crelle concerning the Goldbach Conjecture (and various generalizations and abstractions):
MR0347566 (50 #69) Pogorzelski, H. A. On the …

The resultant and the ideal generated by two polynomials in $\mathbb{Z}[x]$
This issue came to my attention for the first (and only, up until now) time when Gregory Dresden gave a talk about resultants of cyclotomic polynomials in the UGA number theory seminar last spring. I …

What do you call this ring?
As David Speyer says, the most common ways of referring to $\prod_p \mathbb{Z}_p$ are "$\mathbb{Z}$-hat" or "the profinite completion of $\mathbb{Z}$''.
However, I have also heard it called "the Pruf …
