On the maximal abelian ℓ-extension of a finite algebraic number field with given ramification
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 January 2016
Extract
Let k be a finite algebraic number field and let ℓ be a fixed odd prime number. In this paper, we shall prove the equivalence of certain rather strong conditions on the following four things (1) ~ (4), respectively :
(1) the class number of the cyclotomic Zℓ-extension of k,
(2) the Galois group of the maximal abelian ℓ-extension of k with given ramification,
(3) the number of independent cyclic extensions of k of degree ℓ, which can be extended to finite cyclic extensions of k of any ℓ-power degree, and
(4) a certain subgroup Bk(m, S) (cf. § 2) of k×/k×)ℓm for any natural number m (see the main theorem in §3).
