Brumer's theorem for with
ProvedLeopoldt.defect_eq_zero_cyclotomicField_of_four_lt_totientLet be a prime and let be a natural number with , where is Euler's totient function, so that is a totally complex field of degree and unit rank . Then the Leopoldt defect of the -th cyclotomic field vanishes:
Here is the defect of Section 1.1 of the mission source, being the closure of the diagonal image of the global units in the product of the local unit groups at the primes above .
This is Brumer's theorem for cyclotomic fields in the range where it is not elementary. When the unit rank is at most and the vanishing follows from the general bound ; for one needs Brumer's -adic analogue of Baker's theorem on linear forms in logarithms, applied to the cyclotomic units via the character decomposition of the -adic regulator.
Formalization Note. CyclotomicField n ℚ is Mathlib's splitting field of the -th cyclotomic polynomial over . The hypothesis excludes exactly the fields (), , , , and (together with , which give the same fields). No hypothesis relates to .
