Abstract. We will show that the normal CM-fields with relative class number one are of degrees ≤ 216. Moreover, if we assume the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, then the normal CM-fields with relative class number one are of degrees ≤ 96, and the CM-fields with class number one are of degrees ≤ 104. By many authors all normal CM-fields of degrees ≤ 96 with class number one are known except for the possible fields of degree 64 or 96. Consequently the class number one problem for normal CM-fields is solved under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis except for these two cases.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
