Minkowski improvement conjecture for ideal classes in totally real fields
Minkowski improvement conjecture for ideal classes in totally real fields
Fix an integer . For a totally real number field of degree , let denote its discriminant, and let an ideal class mean a class of fractional ideals of the maximal order . Minkowski improvement conjecture. Every ideal class in a totally real number field of degree has a representative ideal whose norm satisfies
This would sharpen Minkowski's bound uniformly for fixed degree; the source presents it as conjectural and gives no resolution.
