Capitulation for even K -groups in the cyclotomic p -extension.

Romain Validire (2009)

Journal de Théorie des Nombres de Bordeaux

Let p be a prime number and F be a number field. Since Iwasawa’s works, the behaviour of the p -part of the ideal class group in the p -extensions of F has been well understood. Moreover, M. Grandet and J.-F. Jaulent gave a precise result about its abelian p -group structure.On the other hand, the ideal class group of a number field may be identified with the torsion part of the K 0 of its ring of integers. The even K -groups of rings of integers appear as higher versions of the class group. Many authors...

Class groups of abelian fields, and the main conjecture

Cornelius Greither (1992)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

This first part of this paper gives a proof of the main conjecture of Iwasawa theory for abelian base fields, including the case p = 2 , by Kolyvagin’s method of Euler systems. On the way, one obtains a general result on local units modulo circular units. This is then used to deduce theorems on the order of χ -parts of p -class groups of abelian number fields: first for relative class groups of real fields (again including the case p = 2 ). As a consequence, a generalization of the Gras conjecture is stated...
