Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

A finiteness phenomenon described by Loxton and later by Kedlaya states that, for any fixed m, there exist (modulo multiplication by roots of unity) only finitely many m-Weil numbers in ℚ ab. In the present paper we show that this phenomenon extends to all finite extensions of ℚ ab.
