Abstract:To each Galois extension L/K of number fields with Galois group G and each integer r ≤ 0 one can associate Stickelberger elements in the centre of the rational group ring Q[G] in terms of values of Artin L-series at r. We show that the denominators of their coefficients are bounded by the cardinality of the commutator subgroup G ′ of G whenever G is nilpotent. Moreover, we show that, after multiplication by |G ′ | and away from 2-primary parts, they annihilate the class group of L if r = 0 and higher Quillen K… Show more
