Multiplicative Galois Module Structure

A. Weiss

A co-publication of the AMS and Fields Institute

This book is the result of a short course on the Galois structure of $S$-units that was given at The Fields Institute in the fall of 1993. Offering a new angle on an old problem, the main theme is that this structure should be determined by class field theory, in its cohomological form, and by the behavior of Artin $L$-functions at $s=0$. A proof of this—or even a precise formulation—is still far away, but the available evidence all points in this direction. The work brings together the current evidence that the Galois structure of $S$-units can be described.

Titles in this series are co-published with The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences (Toronto, Ontario, Canada).

Readership

Graduate students and research mathematicians, specifically algebraic number theorists.

Reviews & Endorsements

No comparable work exists in the literature … we should be thankful to have this book, which is at the same time an introduction, and a report on the state of the art, written by one of the leading experts … Even non-experts with some background in algebra should be able to profit from browsing in this book, which will be a standard reference for a long time to come.
