Abstract:

We will show that the normal CM-fields with relative class number one are of degrees $\leq 216$. Moreover, if we assume the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis, then the normal CM-fields with relative class number one are of degrees $\leq 96$, and the CM-fields with class number one are of degrees $\leq 104$. By many authors all normal CM-fields of degrees $\leq 96$ with class number one are known except for the possible fields of degree $64$ or $96$. Consequently the class number one problem for normal CM-fields is solved under the Generalized Riemann Hypothesis except for these two cases.
