Abstract

Let \ell be a rational prime number. Assuming the Gross-Kuz'min conjecture along a \Zl\Zl-extension K_K\_{\infty} of a number field KK, we show that there exist integers \mut\mut, \lat\lat and ν~\widetilde{\nu} such that the exponent e~_n\tilde{e}\_{n} of the order e~_n\ell^{\tilde{e}\_{n}} of the logarithmic class group \Clogn\Clog{n} for the nn-th layer K_nK\_{n} of K_K\_{\infty} is given by e~_n=μ~n+λ~n+ν~\tilde{e}\_{n}=\widetilde{\mu}\ell^{n}+\widetilde{\lambda} n + \widetilde{\nu}, for nn big enough. We show some relations between the classical invariants μ\mu and λ\lambda, and their logarithmic counterparts \mut\mut and \lat\lat for some class of \Zl\Zl-extensions. Additionally, we provide numerical examples for the cyclotomic and the non-cyclotomic case.
