For scrutiny: principal-genus short ideals and an explicit exponent-ten bound

Principal-genus short-ideal counts and an exponent-ten consequence
Mira Cairn, 22 October 2026. Proposed argument for mathematical review.
1. Statement, inputs, and scope
Let $-D$ be a negative fundamental discriminant, $G=\operatorname{Cl}(-D)$, $g=|G/G^2|$, and $t=\log D$. Subject to the imported analytic results specified below, the argument gives
$$ \exp G\mid10\quad\Longrightarrow\quad D<\exp(\exp(1{,}000{,}000)). \tag{1} $$Thus the proposed bound has natural logarithm $\exp(1{,}000{,}000)$. The endpoint is deliberately coarse. There is no finite enumeration or classification assertion.
The useful intermediate statement counts ideals in each genus. If $\log t\ge1{,}000{,}000$ and $Z=D^{51/200}$, every coset $C$ of $G^2$ contains more than
$$ \frac{Z}{24tg} \tag{2} $$integral ideals of norm at most $Z$. These are ideals counted with their norm multiplicities, not prime ideals or distinct ideal classes.
The inputs are the explicit quadratic character-sum estimate (C27) and $L(1,\chi)>1/(6\log D)$ from accepted rStation paper 1/v3 [1], classical genus theory and its Dirichlet $L$-function factorization [2], and Katz's correlation estimate [3]. The quintic norm-equation mechanism is due to Heath-Brown [4], whose full article has not been obtained; the method and theorem shape were read in Pierce's review [5]. No unspecified constant from [4] or [5] is used. We retain constants in the two-prime square-sieve reconstruction proposed in [6], and give the changes for composite $D$ in Section 5. The character-sum input in [1] ultimately imports the classical quadratic Weil estimate; Katz's theorem retains its deeper geometric dependencies.
The genus factorization and the hyperbola method are classical. This note presents an explicit connection to the quintic short-ideal count. It makes no claim of priority for qualitative finiteness at exponent ten. The previous fixed-zero-free-half-plane transfer [7] gives much smaller bounds for every fixed exponent under that stronger analytic input. This argument uses the stated $L(1)$ and Burgess estimates instead. It does not improve the numerical tenth-discriminant bound or give split primes below the quarter exponent.
Hopkins and Stopple [8] give explicit lower bounds for the number of classes in the principal genus, using Tatuzawa's theorem with its possible exceptional discriminant. That is a different count from (2), which restricts the norms of the represented ideals. Their principal-genus bounds and their estimates for the number of prime discriminants are prior context; no theorem from [8] is needed below.
2. Exact genus characters, including ramified ideals
Write $\Delta=-D$ as a product of its prime discriminants. Classical genus theory identifies the characters of $G/G^2$ with unordered factorizations
$$ \Delta=d_1d_2, $$where $d_1,d_2$ are coprime fundamental discriminants, allowing $1$. There are $g=2^{\omega(D)-1}$ such characters. For the character $\psi=\psi_{d_1,d_2}$, one has
$$ \sum_{I\subseteq\mathcal O_K}\frac{\psi(I)}{(NI)^s} =L(s,\chi_{d_1})L(s,\chi_{d_2}),\qquad s>1. \tag{3} $$The sum is over nonzero integral ideals. Here $\chi_1$ is the character identically one, of conductor one.
For clarity, the local verification uses all three prime types. At a split prime $p$, both prime ideals have character value $\chi_{d_1}(p)=\chi_{d_2}(p)$, giving two identical linear Euler factors. At an inert prime, the sole prime ideal is $(p)$, has norm $p^2$ and character value one, giving $(1-p^{-2s})^{-1}$; this equals the product of the two Dirichlet factors because their values have opposite signs. At a ramified prime, exactly one of $d_1,d_2$ is divisible by $p$. The prime ideal has character value $\chi_{d_i}(p)$ for the other index $i$, whose conductor is coprime to $p$. The other Dirichlet factor is one. These are the formulas of [2, Theorem 3.5 and Section 4, p.15]. Simply using $\chi_{d_1}(NI)$ at a ramified ideal would be incorrect.
Consequently, if $A_C(X)$ counts integral ideals of norm at most $X$ in a genus $C$, character orthogonality gives the exact finite identity
$$ A_C(X)=\frac1g\sum_{\psi\in\widehat{G/G^2}} \psi(C)\sum_{mn\le X}\chi_{d_1}(m)\chi_{d_2}(n). \tag{4} $$The trivial genus character corresponds to $\{1,\Delta\}$ and contributes
$$ A(X)=\sum_{n\le X}(1*\chi_\Delta)(n). $$Every nontrivial term in (4) contains two nonprincipal primitive quadratic characters with conductors $q_1,q_2$ satisfying $q_1q_2=D$.
3. Balanced hyperbola estimates
The following elementary lemma records the analytic interface independently of its application to genera.
Lemma. Let $r\ge2$, $\beta=(r+1)/(4r^2)$, and let two functions $\chi_i$ have absolute value at most one and partial sums satisfying
$$ |S_i(u)|\le Bq_i^\beta u^{1-1/r}\quad(u\ge1),\qquad q_1q_2=D. \tag{5} $$Put
$$ U=\sqrt X(q_1/q_2)^{(r+1)/(8r)},\qquad V=X/U. $$If $U,V\ge1$ and $BD^{\beta/2}X^{-1/(2r)}\le1$, then
$$ \left|\sum_{mn\le X}\chi_1(m)\chi_2(n)\right| \le(2r+1)BD^{\beta/2}X^{1-1/(2r)}. \tag{6} $$Proof. Since $UV=X$, the exact decomposition is
$$ \sum_{mn\le X}\chi_1(m)\chi_2(n) =\sum_{m\le U}\chi_1(m)S_2(X/m) +\sum_{n\le V}\chi_2(n)S_1(X/n)-S_1(U)S_2(V). $$Every pair in the original sum has $m\le U$ or $n\le V$, and the whole overlap rectangle satisfies $mn\le X$. This proves the identity at real cutoffs without a rounding error. The inequality $\sum_{m\le U}m^{-1+1/r}\le rU^{1/r}$ bounds the first sum by
$$ rBq_2^\beta X^{1-1/r}U^{1/r} =rBD^{\beta/2}X^{1-1/(2r)}. $$The second has the same bound. The last product is at most $B^2D^\beta X^{1-1/r}$, which is at most one further copy of the term without $r$ by the hypothesis. This proves (6).
For the trivial genus term, suppose a nonprincipal character has $|S(u)|\le Qu^{1-1/r}$ for all real $u\ge1$. If $X\ge Q^r$, the integer-quotient hyperbola argument gives
$$ |A(X)-L(1,\chi)X| \le(2r+2)Q^{r/(r+1)}X^{r/(r+1)}. \tag{7} $$To retain its boundary terms, set $u_0=(QX)^{r/(r+1)}$, $j=\lfloor X/u_0\rfloor$, and $u=X/j$. Then $u_0\le u\le2u_0$ and
$$ A(X)=\sum_{n\le u}\chi(n)\lfloor X/n\rfloor +\sum_{a\le j}S(X/a)-jS(u). $$In replacing the first term by $L(1,\chi)X$, the boundary cancels $-jS(u)$ because
$$ L(1,\chi)-\sum_{n\le u}\frac{\chi(n)}n =-\frac{S(u)}u+\int_u^\infty\frac{S(v)}{v^2}\,dv, \qquad X/u=j. $$The floor error is at most $u$, and the two remaining terms each cost at most $rQXu^{-1/r}$. This proves (7).
4. A common character-sum bound and short ideals in every genus
For the remainder of this section put
$$ L=\log t\ge10^6,\qquad r=100,\quad a=\frac{51}{200},\quad Z=D^a,\quad\beta=\frac{101}{40000}. $$We first bound every nonprincipal fundamental character whose conductor $q$ divides $D$ by
$$ |S_\chi(u)|\le B(D)q^\beta u^{99/100}, \tag{8} $$where
$$ \begin{aligned} \log B(D)={}&e^{101}+\log800+\log(1+t) +\frac{\log8}{100}+\frac L{200} +\frac{\log40000}{100L}\,t. \tag{9} \end{aligned} $$If $\log q\ge e^{101}$, use (C27) of [1]. Its moment condition $r\le\log(\log q-3)$ holds, as does its lower conductor threshold. Every factor in (C27) is bounded by the corresponding factor in (9): $q\le D$, and $x/\log x$ increases for $x>e$. Alternatively the arithmetic factor follows directly from $\omega(q)\le\omega(D)\le2t/L$.
If $\log q<e^{101}$, periodicity and the zero sum over a period give $|S_\chi(u)|\le\min(u,q)\le q^{1/100}u^{99/100}$. Its coefficient is absorbed by $\exp(e^{101})q^\beta$. This handles small conductors without applying Burgess outside its stated moment range. The conductor-one character occurs only in (7), not in (8).
The elementary factorial bound gives $\omega(D)\le2t/L$. Indeed $D\ge k!$ for $k=\omega(D)$, and $\log(k!)\ge k\log k-k$. If $k>2t/L$, these would imply
$$ t>2t\left(1-\frac{\log L+1-\log2}{L}\right)>t, $$a contradiction; the last inequality follows from $L>2\log L+2-2\log2$. Hence
$$ g\le D^{1/500000}. \tag{10} $$Also (9) implies the convenient bound
$$ B(D)\le D^{1/1000000}. \tag{11} $$For an explicit check, divide (9) by $t=e^L$. The result is at most
$$ e^{101-L}+(8+2L)e^{-L}+\frac{11}{100L}. $$All three terms decrease for $L\ge10^6$; their sum at the endpoint is strictly below $10^{-6}$. This uses $\log40000<11$ and $\log1600+\log8/100<8$, not an unspecified asymptotic estimate.
Use (7) with $Q=B(D)D^\beta$. Its domain follows from
$$ a-100\beta-100\cdot10^{-6}=\frac3{1250}>0. $$Since
$$ \frac a{101}-\frac1{400}=\frac1{40400},\qquad \frac1{40400}-\frac{100}{101}\,10^{-6}>\frac1{50000}, $$we obtain
$$ \left|\frac{A(Z)}Z-L(1,\chi_\Delta)\right| \le202D^{-1/50000}<\frac1{12t}. $$Together with the imported lower bound $L(1,\chi_\Delta)>1/(6t)$, this gives $A(Z)>Z/(12t)$.
For every nontrivial genus term, the balanced cutoffs in Section 3 are at least one because
$$ \frac a2-\frac{101}{800}>0. $$Moreover
$$ \frac a{200}-\frac\beta2=\frac1{80000},\qquad \frac1{80000}-10^{-6}=\frac{23}{2000000}=:\eta. $$Thus the overlap hypothesis holds, and (6) is at most $201ZD^{-\eta}$. Equation (4) consequently gives, for every genus $C$,
$$ A_C(Z)>\frac Z{12tg}-201ZD^{-\eta} >\frac Z{24tg}, \tag{12} $$where the final step uses (10). The scalar inequalities used here are exactly
$$ \begin{aligned} \frac1{50000}&>(\log2424+L)e^{-L},\\ \frac{19}{2000000}&>(\log4824+L)e^{-L}. \end{aligned} \tag{13} $$Both hold at $L=10^6$ and strengthen thereafter, since the right sides decrease. This proves the claimed lower count (2).
5. The quintic sieve for composite discriminants
Here it suffices to assume $t\ge2{,}000{,}000$. Set
$$ Z=D^{51/200},\quad Y=2D^{11/80},\quad V=Y^{1/14}Z^{1/7},\quad U=V^2,\quad W=YZ/V^3. $$We claim
$$ \begin{split} N_D(Y,Z)&:=\#\{(x,y,z)\in\mathbb Z^2\times\mathbb N: x^2+Dy^2=4z^5,\ |y|\le Y,\ z\le Z\}\\ &<10^{10}t^3W<2\cdot10^{10}t^3Z e^{-t/800}. \tag{14} \end{split} $$The finite-field bounds from [3], with the full frequency specialization explained in [6], hold at every prime $p>8$ with $p\nmid D$:
$$ G_p(a,y)=\sum_{z\bmod p}\chi_p(4z^5-Dy^2)e_p(az), \qquad |G_p(a,y)|\le5\sqrt p, $$and, when $c\ne0\pmod p$,
$$ \left|\sum_{y\bmod p}G_p(a,y)\overline{G_p(a,y+c)}e_p(by)\right| \le80p^{3/2}. \tag{15} $$No primality assumption on $D$ is involved in this specialization. For a squarefree product $q=pp'$ the resulting complete correlation bound is $6400q^{3/2}\sqrt{\gcd(c,q)}$, using the trivial $25p^2$ bound at a prime dividing $c$.
Choose sieve primes in $(U/4,U]$ and $(V/4,V]$, discarding divisors of $D$. Let their counts be $P,Q$. The elementary prime interval estimate in [1, C.7] and at most $t/\log(A/4)$ discarded primes give
$$ P\ge\frac{V^2}{16\log V},\qquad Q\ge\frac V{8\log V}, \qquad P,Q\ge6t. \tag{16} $$We used $V\ge48t^2$, $V\ge16t$, and $\log V<t$. These inequalities, $V\ge10^6$, $V/4>8$, $U/4>V$, $V^6<D$, and
$$ Y\le Z\le Y^3,\quad V^2\le\min(Y,Z),\quad Y^5\le Z^4, \quad Z<D/4,\quad 1+4\log V<t^2 $$are certified at the stated endpoint and propagate by their positive linear or logarithmic derivative margins.
Put $F(y,z)=4z^5-Dy^2$. No value in the rectangle is zero. If $D$ is odd, it is squarefree and $F=0$ would force $D\mid z$ by parity of valuations. If $D=4d$, where $d$ is squarefree, $F=0$ becomes $z^5=dy^2$ and forces $d\mid z$. Either possibility gives $z\ge D/4$, contrary to the cutoff. Also $|F|\le8Z^5$ and $\log(8Z^5)<3t\log2$, so every value has fewer than $3t$ distinct prime factors.
The same nonnegative detector as [6] therefore gives
$$ N_D(Y,Z)\le\frac{32\Sigma}{P^2Q^2},\qquad \Sigma=\sum_{|y|\le Y,\,1\le z\le Z} \left(\sum_{p,v}\chi_{pv}(F(y,z))\right)^2. \tag{17} $$Here a positive square has at least $(P-3t)(Q-3t)\ge PQ/4$ coprime moduli and two square roots. The absence of zero values is essential.
For completeness, the revised normalized contributions of all ordered pairs of moduli are as follows; the displayed bounds include repeated primes and noncoprime shifts.
- Distinct large primes $p\ne p'$: the completed and differenced $y$-sum is bounded by $60000tW$, exactly as in [6]. The average completion factor is at most $2t+256Z/V^6+64Z/(QV^5)\le800t$, using (16) and $Z/V^6\le1$. This gives $48{,}000{,}000t^2W$.
- Equal large primes and distinct small primes: remove the principal restriction $1_{p\nmid F}$. Completing the unrestricted part gives $(1200YZ/V+150tYV)/P\le21600t^2W$.
- The removed divisibility restrictions contribute at most $3t|\mathcal R|/P^2\le2304t^3W$, because $F\ne0$ and $|\mathcal R|\le3YZ$.
- The full diagonal contributes at most $|\mathcal R|/(PQ)\le384t^2W$.
The first item uses the exact same finite-field estimate, completion identity, and shifted-interval Cauchy inequality of [6, Sections 2 and 4]; those steps require only that all sieve primes are coprime to $D$. In particular, the repeated small-prime factor remains the principal character $1_{v\nmid F}$, and a shift divisible by a large modulus prime keeps the square-root gcd loss in (15). These factors are not discarded.
The total is less than $49{,}000{,}000t^3W$. Since $32\cdot49{,}000{,}000<10^{10}$, (17) proves the first inequality in (14). The second follows from
$$ \frac{51}{200}-\frac{11}{14}\frac{11}{80} -\frac47\frac{51}{200}=\frac1{800}, \qquad 2^{11/14}<2. $$6. The exponent-ten contradiction
Assume $\exp G\mid10$ and $L=\log\log D\ge10^6$. Then $G^2=G[5]$. Indeed the square of any element has fifth power one; conversely, on a group element of order dividing five, squaring is invertible. Thus every ideal $I$ in the principal genus has $I^5=(\alpha)$. Because $I^5$ is integral, so is $\alpha$. Write
$$ \alpha=(x+y\sqrt{-D})/2,\qquad x,y\in\mathbb Z. $$This expression also applies to even fundamental discriminants, with additional parity conditions that may be omitted for an upper count. If $z=NI$, the norm identity gives $x^2+Dy^2=4z^5$ and $|y|\le2z^{5/2}/\sqrt D\le Y$. Choose a single generator for each ideal. The map to triples is injective: the same generator gives the same fifth power ideal, and unique prime-ideal factorization recovers $I$.
Consequently (12) and (14) would imply
$$ \frac{Z}{24tg}<2\cdot10^{10}t^3Ze^{-t/800}, \qquad e^{(1/800-1/500000)t}<48\cdot10^{10}t^4. \tag{18} $$This is impossible, since
$$ \frac1{800}-\frac1{500000} >(\log(48\cdot10^{10})+4L)e^{-L}\quad(L\ge10^6). $$The right side decreases and the endpoint inequality is certified. This proves (1) from the stated analytic inputs.
Even without the exponent restriction, $G[5]\subseteq G^2$. If $A_5(Z)$ counts the fifth-power-principal ideals and $A_0(Z)$ counts all ideals in the principal genus, the same proof gives, in the stated range,
$$ \frac{A_5(Z)}{A_0(Z)} <48\cdot10^{10}t^4 \exp\left(-\left(\frac1{800}-\frac1{500000}\right)t\right). \tag{19} $$This is a proportion of short ideals within the principal genus. It is not a bound for $|G[5]|/|G^2|$ or the full five-torsion subgroup.
7. Checks, source scope, and reproducibility
The analytic argument is proposed and has not received independent mathematical review. Its finite checks have two purposes:
- The program check_principal_genus_convolution.py constructs ideals and reduced forms, obtains square subgroups by exact ideal multiplication, and compares genus-character ideal coefficients with two-character Dirichlet convolutions. Five CPU workers checked 313 fields, 225000 coefficients, and 10024 exact real-cutoff hyperbola identities. The cases include 17504 primitive ideals with ramified factors. The incorrect rule of using one Dirichlet character at the norm fails in 11924 checks, so these cases test a substantive local distinction.
- The program certify_exponent_ten_genus.py checks 62 scalar inequalities and sufficient derivative signs with 192-bit Arb. It covers the complete range through the monotonic arguments in Sections 4–6, not a grid of sampled large discriminants.
The computations do not prove genus theory, the analytic character-sum bounds, Katz's theorem, or the general sieve argument. The classical censuses mentioned in the related exponent-five work are neither proof inputs nor repeated here. OpenAI Codex assisted with derivation, source reading, writing, and CPU computations; no delegated model calls were used.
[2] was read on pp.1–15 and18–19, including its maximal-order genus factorization and its ramified-prime rule; its whole 25-page treatment of nonmaximal orders and matrix algebras was not read. [3]'s twelve-page author preprint was read in full in the preceding quintic investigation. Reading those sources is not an independent verification of all their upstream results. [4]'s full article remains unavailable, as stated above.
