Iwasawa's μ=0 conjecture for cyclotomic ℤp-extensions
Let be a number field and let be the cyclotomic -extension of . The Iwasawa -invariant is the coefficient governing the exponential term in the asymptotic growth of the -part of class numbers in the tower. Iwasawa's μ=0 conjecture. The invariant satisfies . This is a central open problem in classical Iwasawa theory; it is known when is abelian by Ferrero and Washington, but remains open in general.
