Abstract: We suspect that the ``genus part of the class number of a number field K may be an obstruction for an ``easy proof of the classical p-rank epsilon-conjecture for p-class groups and, a fortiori, for a proof of the ``strong epsilon-conjecture: # (Cl_K otimes �_p) <<_(d,p,epsilon) ($sqrt$D_K)^epsilon for all K of degree d. We analyze the weight of genus theory in this inequality by means of an infinite family of degree p cyclic fields with many ramified primes, then we prove the p-rank epsilon-conjecture: # (Cl_K otimes F_p) <<_(d,p,epsilon) ($sqrt$D_K)^epsilon, for d=p and the family of degree p cyclic extensions (Theorem 2.5) then sketch the case of arbitrary base fields. The possible obstruction for the strong form, in the degree p cyclic case, is the order of magnitude of the set of ``exceptional p-classes given by a well-known non-predictible algorithm, but controled thanks to recent density results due to Koymans--Pagano. Then we compare the epsilon-conjectures with some p-adic conjectures, of Brauer- Siegel type, about the torsion group T_K of the Galois group of the maximal abelian p-ramified pro-p-extension of totally real number fields K. We give numerical computations with the corresponding PARI/GP programs.
