Brumer's conjecture for equivariant partial zeta values

At least 17 years old · documented by

Let K/kK/k be an Abelian extension of number fields with Galois group GG. Let θK/k,S(0)\theta_{K/k,S}(0) be the value at 00 of the SS-imprimitive equivariant LL-function, and let μK\boldsymbol{\mu_K} and ClK\mathrm{Cl}_K denote the group of roots of unity and the class group of KK, respectively. For a Z[G]\mathbb{Z}[G]-module, write Ann⁡Z[G]\operatorname{Ann}_{\mathbb{Z}[G]} for its annihilator.

Brumer's conjecture.

Ann⁡Z[G]μK ⋅ θK/k,S(0)⊆Ann⁡Z[G]ClK.\operatorname{Ann}_{\mathbb{Z}[G]} \mu_K\,\cdot\,\theta_{K/k,S}(0)\subseteq \operatorname{Ann}_{\mathbb{Z}[G]}\mathrm{Cl}_K.

This refines the integrality property for equivariant LL-function values and generalizes the analytic class number formula. Its resolution is not established in the supplied text.
