A Formula For the S-Class Number of an Algebraic Torus

Number Theory 2016-11-08 v1

Abstract

We obtain a formula for the S-class number of an algebraic torus defined over a number field in terms of the etale and Galois cohomology groups of its character module. As applications, we give different proofs of some classical class number formulas of Shyr, Ono, Katayama and Morishita.
