Review text

The author proves that, for given positive integers \(k\) and suitably chosen integers \(a\) and \(M\), there exist infinitely many positive squarefree integers \(d\) such that \(h(-d)\) is divisible by \(k\) with \(d \equiv a \bmod M\). Using a result of Gauss, this divisibility result is then transferred to the number of representations of integers as sums of three squares.
