This conjecture is wellknown as class number one problem. In 1952, K. Heegner first solved the problem and he showed that Gauss was right about the assumption in Diophantische analysis und modulfunktionen. In this thesis, we will present a modern approach to the proof of Heegner as in D.A.Cox’s book, Primes of the Form x2 + ny2.30 cm.Number theory.Class number one problemxii, 100 leaves ;
