For a finite Galois extension and a conjugacy class in , the unramified primes with Frobenius conjugacy class have Dirichlet density . In particular,
One proof uses Brauer induction, the Artin L-function order at one, and character orthogonality. The trivial Artin L-function is the Dedekind zeta function of . The full theorem also gives the natural density, but this logarithmic estimate alone establishes the Dirichlet density assertion.
