Kummer's relative class number conjecture
Let be a prime, let be the relative class number of the cyclotomic field over its maximal real subfield, and define
The Kummer conjecture. As tends to infinity, tends to . This is the classical asymptotic prediction for relative class numbers; the paper later gives average bounds, but the conjecture itself is not resolved here.
