Let k be a finite algebraic number field and let be a fixed odd prime number. In this paper, we shall prove the equivalence of certain rather strong conditions on the following four things (1) ~ (4), respectively :

  1. (1) the class number of the cyclotomic Z-extension of k,

  2. (2) the Galois group of the maximal abelian -extension of k with given ramification,

  3. (3) the number of independent cyclic extensions of k of degree , which can be extended to finite cyclic extensions of k of any -power degree, and

  4. (4) a certain subgroup Bk(m, S) (cf. § 2) of k×/k×)ℓm for any natural number m (see the main theorem in §3).
