Bley–Burns–Hahn's relative K-theory conjecture for weakly ramified extensions

Let L/KL/K be a weakly ramified Galois extension of number fields of odd degree, with G=Gal(L/K)G=\operatorname{Gal}(L/K). Let aL/K\mathfrak{a}_{L/K} and cL/K\mathfrak{c}_{L/K} be the canonical elements in the relative group K0(Z[G],Q[G])K_0(\mathbb{Z}[G],\mathbb{Q}[G]) introduced by Bley, Burns and Hahn, where aL/K\mathfrak{a}_{L/K} measures the difference between the invariant arising from AL/K\mathcal{A}_{L/K} and the second Adams-operator-twisted Galois–Gauss sums. Bley–Burns–Hahn's conjecture. If L/KL/K is any weakly ramified Galois extension of number fields of odd degree, then, in K0(Z[G],Q[G])K_0(\mathbb{Z}[G],\mathbb{Q}[G]), one has

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

The conjecture is motivated by torsion and functoriality results for aL/K\mathfrak{a}_{L/K} and by numerical computations. The supplied source does not report a resolution.
