Generalized Minkowski bound for prime ideals in ideal class groups

Let KK) be a number field of bounded degree nn over Q\mathbb{Q}, with discriminant DKD_K and class number hKh_K. An ideal class is said to contain a prime ideal if some prime ideal in that class has norm below the specified bound. Generalized Minkowski bound. Almost all ideal classes in the ideal class group of KK contain a prime ideal with norm less than

hKlog(DK)Ah_K\log(|D_K|)^A

for some A>0A>0. The conjecture generalizes the heuristic bound for imaginary quadratic fields; under the Brauer–Siegel theorem and GRH one has hKDKlog(DK)ϵh_K\ll\sqrt{|D_K|}\log(|D_K|)^\epsilon, while the asserted bound for all number fields remains open.
