Abstract

Let $textsc{k}$＝$F_{q}$(T) be a rational function field. Let $\ell$ be a prime number with ($\ell$, q-1) ＝ 1. Let K/$textsc{k}$ be an elmentary abelian $\ell$-extension which is contained in some cyclotomic function field. In this paper, we study the $\ell$-divisibility of ideal class number $h_{K}$ of K by using cyclotomic units.s.s.
