\textit{F. Hazama} [J. Number Theory 34, 174-177 (1990; Zbl 0697.12003)] has given a relative class number formula for the \(p\)th cyclotomic field by means of the Demjanenko matrix. The following authors have generalized the formula for some types of fields having odd conductor: \textit{K. Girstmair} [Abh. Math. Semin. Univ. Hamb. 62, 217-232 (1992; Zbl 0779.11052)], \textit{W. Schwarz} [Arch. Math. 60, 154-156 (1993; Zbl 0807.11053)], \textit{K. Dohmae} [Proc. Japan Acad., Ser. A 70, 292-294 (1994; Zbl 0829.11055)], \textit{J. W. Sands} and \textit{W. Schwarz} [J. Number Theory 52, 85-97 (1995; Zbl 0829.11054)], and \textit{H. Tsumura} [J. Number Theory 60, 70-79 (1996; Zbl 0866.11063)]. See also the remark by \textit{T. Metsänkylä} [J. Number Theory 64, 162-163 (1997)], which contains important information about the history of the subject. The present author gives a further generalization for an arbitrary imaginary abelian number field \(K\). If \(K\) is cyclic with conductor \(2^a\geq8\), he obtains a simple formula for the relative class number of \(K\). For the entire collection see [Zbl 0868.00042].
