Infinitely many imaginary quadratic fields with class number divisible by a prescribed odd integer

From papers

Let pp and qq be distinct odd primes. Let nn be a positive odd integer, and let mm be a positive integer that is not an nn-th root of any rational integer. Consider the imaginary quadratic fields of the form

Q(p2mqn).\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{p^2-mq^n}).

The authors' conjecture. For each such pp, qq, nn, and mm, there are infinitely many imaginary quadratic fields of this form whose class number is divisible by nn. This extends the numerical phenomenon established for the paper's explicit family, while the general assertion remains open.
