✦ Synopsis


It is well known that the Galois group of an extension L/F puts constraints on the structure of the relative ideal class group Cl(L/F ). Explicit results, however, hardly ever go beyond the semisimple abelian case, where L/F is abelian (in general cyclic) and where (L : F ) and #Cl(L/F ) are coprime. Using only basic parts of the theory of group representations, we give a unified approach to these as well as more general results.

We propose a conjecture on the distribution of number fields with given Galois group and bounded norm of the discriminant. This conjecture is known to hold for abelian groups. We give some evidence relating the general case to the composition formula for discriminants, give a heuristic argument in f
