Chevalley’s ambiguous class number formula for an arbitrary torus

Cristian D. González-Avilés

Open publisher page 14 citations

Abstract

Abstract. In this paper we obtain Chevalley’s ambiguous class number formula for an arbitrary torus T over a global field. The classical formula of C.Chevalley may be recovered by setting T = Gm in our formula. A key ingredient of the proof is the work of X.Xarles on groups of components of Néron-Raynaud models of tori. 1.
