Bley–Burns–Hahn conjecture on Galois-Gauss sums

Let L/KL/K be a weakly ramified Galois extension of number fields of odd degree. Write aL/K\mathfrak{a}_{L/K} for the canonical pre-image associated with the stable-isomorphism class of the square root of the inverse different, and let cL/K\mathfrak{c}_{L/K} denote the idelic twisted unramified characteristic attached to L/KL/K, both viewed in K0(Z[G],Q[G])K_0(\mathbb{Z}[G],\mathbb{Q}[G]), where G=Gal(L/K)G=\operatorname{Gal}(L/K). Bley–Burns–Hahn conjecture. One has

aL/K=cL/K.\mathfrak{a}_{L/K}=\mathfrak{c}_{L/K}.

This conjecture refines the study of the Galois module structure of the square root of the inverse different by comparing a canonical relative KK-theory class with an idelic twisted unramified characteristic. It is supported by numerical computations and is the main conjecture investigated in the paper; the supplied text gives no resolution.
