摘要
Let Q(root -k) be an imaginary quadratic field with discriminant -k and class number h, with k not equal 3, 4, or 8. Let p be a prime such that (-k/p) = 1. There are integers C, D, unique up to sign, such that 4p(h) = C-2 + kD(2) P X C. Stickelberger gave a congruence for C module p which extends congruences of Gauss, Jacobi, and Eisenstein. Stickelberger also gave a simultaneous congruence for C module k, but only for prime k. We prove an extension of his result that holds for all k, giving along the way an exposition of his work.
