On stronger versions of Brumer’s conjecture
نویسنده
چکیده
Let k be a totally real number field and L a CM-field such that L/k is finite and abelian. In this paper, we study a stronger version of Brumer’s conjecture that the Stickelberger element times the annihilator of the group of roots of unity in L is in the Fitting ideal of the ideal class group of L, and also study the dual version. We mainly study the Teichmüller character component, and determine the Fitting ideal in a certain case. We will see that these stronger versions hold in a certain case. It is known that the stronger version (SB) does not hold in general. We will prove in this paper that the dual version (DSB) does not hold in general, either.

Stark’s Question and a Strong Form of Brumer’s Conjecture
We show that a question posed by Stark in 1980, regarding abelian L– functions of order of vanishing 2 at s = 0, has a negative answer in the case of characteristic p global fields. We provide links between various versions of Stark’s question and a strong form of Brumer’s Conjecture, in the general context of global fields of arbitrary characteristic. As a consequence, we show that the strong ...
متن کاملStickelberger ideals and Fitting ideals of class groups for abelian number fields
In this paper, we determine completely the initial Fitting ideal of the minus part of the ideal class group of an abelian number field over Q up to the 2-component. This answers an open question of Mazur and Wiles [11] up to the 2-component, and proves Conjecture 0.1 in [8]. We also study Brumer’s conjecture and prove a stronger version for a CM-field, assuming certain conditions, in particular...
متن کاملOn the Rubin–stark Conjecture for a Special Class of Cm Extensions of Totally Real Number Fields
We use Greither’s recent results on Brumer’s Conjecture to prove Rubin’s integral version of Stark’s Conjecture, up to a power of 2, for an infinite class of CM extensions of totally real number fields, called “nice extensions”. As a consequence, we show that the Brumer–Stark Conjecture is true for “nice extensions”, up to a power of 2.
متن کاملFast Constructive Recognition of a Black Box Group Isomorphic to Sn or An using Goldbach's Conjecture
The well-known Goldbach Conjecture (GC) states that any sufficiently large even number can be represented as a sum of two odd primes. Although not yet demonstrated, it has been checked for integers up to 1014. Using two stronger versions of the conjecture, we offer a simple and fast method for recognition of a gray box group G known to be isomorphic to Sn (or An) with known n ≥ 20, i.e. for con...
متن کاملFitting Ideals of `-adic Realizations of Picard 1-motives and Class Groups of Global Function Fields
In previous work, we proved a result on the equivariant Fitting ideal of the `-adic realization of the Picard 1-motive attached to an abelian covering of curves defined over a finite field. In this paper, we build upon this work to deduce results on the equivariant Fitting ideal of the Tate modules of the Jacobian of the top curve, and on the equivariant Fitting ideal of the (dual of the) degre...
