Abstract: Let $p$ be a prime number. Let $C_p$, the cyclic group of order $p$, permute transitively a set of indeterminates $x_1,ldots,x_p$. We prove that the invariant field $mathbbQ(x_1,ldots,x_p{)}^{C_p}$ is rational over $mathbbQ$ if and only if the $(p-1)$-th cyclotomic field $mathbbQ(zet{a}_{p-1})$ has class number one.
