Class numbers of cyclotomic fields and their maximal totally real subfields
Let $\zeta_p$ be a $p$-th root of unity for a prime $p$, let $L:=\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_p)$ and $K$ the maximal totally real subfield of $L$, i.e. $K:=\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_p+\zeta_p^{-1})$. I am trying to prove ...

relating class number and narrow class number of a real field
I am interested in finding out when the narrow class number of $\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_p+\zeta_p^{-1})$ is the same as the class number of $\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_p+\zeta_p^{-1})$ where $\zeta_p$ is a primitive $...

Definition of Euler system of cyclotomic units
I am not sure about my understanding of Euler system of cyclotomic unit. This is what I have learnt:
Let $F=\mathbb{Q}(\mu_m)$.
Let $\mathcal{I}(m)$ = {positive square free integers divisible only by ...

Easy cases of Herbrand's theorem
$\def\QQ{\mathbb{Q}}\def\ZZ{\mathbb{Z}}$ I recall Herbrand's theorem about class groups of cyclotomic fields: Let $p$ be an odd prime, let $\zeta$ be a primitive $p$-th root of $1$ and let $K = \QQ(\...
