Abstract

Numbers of the form x2 + Ny2 have been studied for a long time, in particular when N is one of Euler’s convenient numbers. For the first inconvenient number N = 11, most attention has gone to prime numbers of the form x2 + 11y2. Here, we use the class group G11 of level 11 to study the set S1 of all numbers n having a primitive representation n = x2 + 11y2. The four conjugacy classes of elliptic elements of order 2 in G11 give rise to a set C = S1 ∪ S2 in which we have to distinguish S1 from the set S2 of numbers n having a primitive representation n = 4x2 + 11xy + 33y2. The set S1 is decomposed into disjoint subsets corresponding to specific products of primes and cubic numbers. The primes and cubic numbers in S1 and S2 are described in detail.
