Brumer–Stark conjecture for Abelian extensions

Let K/kK/k be an Abelian extension of number fields, let G=Gal(K/k)G=\operatorname{Gal}(K/k), and let wKw_K be the number of roots of unity in KK. Set

θ=θK/k,S(0).\theta=\theta_{K/k,S}(0).

An element of K×K^{\times} is an anti-unit if all of its complex absolute values are 11, and it is wKw_K-Abelian for K/kK/k if adjoining a wKw_K-th root produces an Abelian extension of kk. If a\mathfrak{a} is an integral ideal of KK, then:

Brumer–Stark conjecture. There exists εa,K/k,SK×\varepsilon_{\mathfrak{a},K/k,S}\in K^{\times} such that

awKθ=(εa,K/k,S),\mathfrak{a}^{w_K\theta}=\left(\varepsilon_{\mathfrak{a},K/k,S}\right),

εa,K/k,S\varepsilon_{\mathfrak{a},K/k,S} is an anti-unit, and εa,K/k,S\varepsilon_{\mathfrak{a},K/k,S} is wKw_K-Abelian.

This is the pp-local Brumer–Stark conjecture used as a hypothesis for the paper's results. The supplied text does not state a resolution.
