Short description: Result on the p-parts of the Galois eigenspaces of an ideal class group

In algebraic number theory, the Gras conjecture (Gras 1977) relates the p-parts of the Galois eigenspaces of an ideal class group to the group of global units modulo cyclotomic units. It was proved by (Mazur Wiles) as a corollary of their work on the main conjecture of Iwasawa theory. (Kolyvagin 1990) later gave a simpler proof using Euler systems.
