Birch-tate Conjecture




The Birch-Tate conjecture is based on Algebraic K-theory proposed by both Bryan John Birch and John Tate . It relates the value of a Dedekind Zeta Function at ''s'' = −1 to the order of ''K''2 of the Ring Of Integers , for a Number Field ''F''.

Progress on this conjecture has been made as a consequence of work on Iwasawa Theory , and in particular of the proofs given for the so-called "main theorem of Iwasawa theory."

The problem remains unsolved as of 2006.
