Let K = 𝔽 q ( T ) be the rational function field over a finite field of q elements. For any polynomial f ( T ) 𝔽 q [ T ] with positive degree, denote by Λ f the torsion points of the Carlitz module for the polynomial ring 𝔽 q [ T ] . In this short paper, we will determine an explicit formula for the analytic class number for the unique subfield M of the cyclotomic function field K ( Λ P ) of degree k over 𝔽 q ( T ) , where P 𝔽 q [ T ] is an irreducible polynomial of positive degree and k > 1 is a positive divisor of q - 1 . A formula for the analytic class number for the maximal real subfield M + of M is also presented. Futhermore, a relative class number formula for ideal class group of M will be given in terms of Artin L -function in this paper.
