J. Carmelo Interlando, José Othon Dantas Lopes, Trajano Pires da Nóbrega Neto · Journal of Algebra and Its Applications · 2006

A formula for computing the discriminant of any Abelian number field K is given. It is presented as a function of the conductor m of K and of the degrees of the fields K ∩ ℚ(ζpα) over ℚ, where p runs through the set of primes that divide m, and pαis the greatest power of p that divides m.
