Class number formulas via 2-isogenies of elliptic curves

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

A classical result of Dirichlet shows that certain elementary character sums compute class numbers of quadratic imaginary number fields. We obtain analogous relations between class numbers and a weighted character sum associated to a 2-isogeny of elliptic curves.
