Cyclotomic unit index formula
ID: cyclotomic-unit-index-formula
For a real cyclotomic field of odd prime-power conductor, the index of its cyclotomic-unit group has the same p-part as its ideal class number. The analytic class number formula compares the regulator of all units with the explicit cyclotomic-unit regulator. The equality here is stated at the p-part level, so harmless prime-to-p normalization factors do not affect it.
