A higher order p-adic class number formula

Number Theory 2012-08-02 v1

Abstract

We generalize a formula of Leopoldt which relates the p-adic regulator modulo p of a real abelian extension of Q with the value of the relative Dedekind zeta function at s=2-p. We use this generalization to give a statement on the non-vanishing modulo p of this relative zeta function at the point s=1 under a mild condition.
