Abstract: In this note, for each odd prime p, we show that the orders of the KU-local homotopy groups of the mod p Moore spectrum are equal to denominators of special values of certain quotients of Dedekind zeta-functions of totally real number fields. With this observation in hand, we give a cute topological proof of the Leopoldt conjecture for those number fields, by showing that it is a consequence of periodicity properties of KU-local stable homotopy groups.
