On class groups of imaginary quadratic fields

Abstract:
In this paper, it is proved that one can find imaginary quadratic fields with class number not divisible by a specified prime l and with certain specified splitting conditions at a finite number of primes. Such existence theorems are useful in the arithmetic of elliptic curves and, potentially, also in certain lifting problems for reducible two‐dimensional Galois representations. The methods used are a blend of geometry and the theory of modular forms, especially the trace formula.
