Leopoldt's abelian conjecture for totally real fields

Let KK be a totally real field and let pp be a prime. Let Δ\Delta be the Galois group of the maximal abelian pro-pp extension of KK unramified outside pp. Leopoldt's abelian conjecture.

dimQpΔ[1/p]=1.\dim_{\mathbb Q_p}\Delta[1/p]=1.

This is the abelian Leopoldt conjecture, equivalently asserting that the global units have maximal possible rank in the product of the pp-adic local unit groups, or that the pp-adic regulator is nonzero. The source gives no resolution status.
