Unramified Iwasawa torsion theorem (${\mathrm{rank}}_{\Lambda }Y=0$)

The unramified Iwasawa module is finitely generated torsion over the Iwasawa algebra of a Zp-extension, for every Zp-extension of a number field. After a finite shift all ramified primes are totally ramified and their number $s$ is constant. Class field theory bounds finite-layer coinvariant modules by ${\mathrm{rank}}_{{\mathbb{Z}}_p}{Y}_{{\Gamma }_n}\le s-1$. The Compact Nakayama lemma proves finite generation, and a positive Iwasawa-module rank would force ranks at least $r{p}^n$, a contradiction. No Leopoldt conjecture is required.
