Abstract:
The paper [1] raised the question of the finiteness of the number
squarefree polynomials f∈Q[h] of fixed degree
with periodic continued fraction expansion of √f( in the field Q((h)),
for which the fields Q(h)(√f() are not isomorphic to
one another and to fields of the form Q(h)(√chn+1),
where c∈Q∗, n∈N.
In the joint paper, V.P. Platonov and G.V. Fedorov [2]
obtained a positive answer to this question for elliptic fields
Q(h)(√f(), degf=3. The report will present the results of
the article [2].
