This paper is a continuation of [2]. We construct unconditionally several families of number fields with large class numbers. They are number fields whose Galois closures have as the Galois groups, dihedral groups Dn, n = 3, 4, 5, and cyclic groups Cn, n = 4, 5, 6. We first construct families of number fields with small regulators, and by using the strong Artin conjecture and applying some modification of zero density result of Kowalski-Michel, we choose subfamilies such that the corresponding…

Application of the Strong Artin Conjecture to the Class Number Problem
Abstract We construct unconditionally several families of number fields with the largest possible class numbers. They are number fields of degree 4 and 5 whose Galois closures have the Galois group…

Dedekind Sums, Mean Square Value of $L$-Functions at $s=1$ and Upper Bounds on Relative Class Numbers
Explicit formulas for the quadratic mean value at s = 1 of the Dirichlet L-functions associated with the set X − f of the φ(f)/2 odd Dirichlet characters modulo f are known. They have been used to…
ON THE DENOMINATOR OF DEDEKIND SUMS
It is well known that the denominator of the Dedekind sum s(c, d) divides 2 gcd(d, 3)d and that no smaller denominator independent of c can be expected. In contrast, here we prove that we usually get…
An effective Chebotarev density theorem for families of number fields, with an application to $$\ell $$-torsion in class groups
We prove a new effective Chebotarev density theorem for Galois extensions $L/\mathbb{Q}$ that allows one to count small primes (even as small as an arbitrarily small power of the discriminant of…
Logarithmic derivatives of Artin $L$-functions
Abstract Let $K$ be a number field of degree $n$, and let $d_K$ be its discriminant. Then, under the Artin conjecture, the generalized Riemann hypothesis and a certain zero-density hypothesis, we…
