Kervaire–Murthy adelic class-group conjecture

About 16 years old · traced to

Let FnF_n be the cyclotomic field in question, let A(Fn){\mathbb A}(F_n) be its ring of adeles, and let Kpn+1−1K_{p^{n+1}-1} be the subgroup

Kpn+1−1=GL(1,Q)×Un,pn+1−1×∏GL(1,Qw)K_{p^{n+1}-1}=GL(1,\mathbb Q)\times U_{n,p^{n+1}-1}\times\prod GL(1,\mathbb Q_w)

of GL(1,A(Fn))GL(1,{\mathbb A}(F_n)), where the product ranges over the valuations ww distinct from μn=(1−ζn)\mu_n=(1-\zeta_n). Kervaire–Murthy conjecture. The conjecture can be formulated as

(Sn−)∗≅(GL(1,Fn)∖GL(1,A(Fn))/Kpn+1−1)(p)+.(S_n^-)^*\cong\left(GL(1,F_n)\setminus GL(1,{\mathbb A}(F_n))/K_{p^{n+1}-1}\right)^+_{(p)}.

This is an adelic reformulation of the Kervaire–Murthy conjecture, relating the character group of the minus part of the class group to a plus pp-primary adelic double quotient; the supplied passage gives no separate resolution of this formulation.
