The global epsilon constant conjecture
The global epsilon constant conjecture
Let be a finite Galois extension of number fields with Galois group . Let be the element of constructed from the equivariant epsilon constant, the equivariant discriminant, local correction terms, and refined Euler characteristics. Global epsilon constant conjecture. For every finite Galois extension of number fields,
in . This conjecture is denoted by . The conjecture gives a -theoretic formulation of the vanishing of the global epsilon-constant obstruction and implies Chinburg's -conjecture. It is known for tamely ramified extensions and for abelian extensions of ; the cited results also establish related equivalences with cases of the equivariant Tamagawa number conjecture under Leopoldt's conjecture.
