AbstractKummer's conjecture predicts the rate of growth of the relative class numbers of cyclotomic fields of prime conductor. We extend Kummer's conjecture to cyclotomic fields of conductor n, where n is any natural number. We show that the Elliott–Halberstam conjecture implies that this generalised Kummer's conjecture is true for almost all n but is false for infinitely many n.

Let p be a prime. If one adjoins to Q all pn-th roots of unity for n = 1,2,3, …, then the resulting field will contain a unique subfield Q∞ such that Q∞ is a Galois extension of Q with Gal (Q∞/Q) Zp, the additive group of p-adic integers. We will denote Gal (Q∞/Q) by Γ. In a previous paper [6], we discussed a conjecture relating p-adic L-functions to certain arithmetically defined representation spaces for Γ. Now by using some results of Iwasawa, one can reformulate that conjecture in terms of certain other representation spaces for Γ. This new conjecture, which we believe may be more susceptible to generalization, will be stated below.
