Abstract: We prove inequalities that compare the regulator of a number field with its absolute discriminant. We refine some ideas in Silverman's work in 1984 where such general inequalities are first proven. In order to prove our main theorems, we combine these refinements with the authors' recent results on bounding the product of heights of relative units in a number field extension.
