Generalizations of Iwasawa's 'Riemann-Hurwitz' Formula for Cyclic   p-Extensions of Number Fields
  We produce generalizations of Iwasawa's `Riemann-Hurwitz' formula for number fields. These generalizations apply to cyclic extensions of number fields of degree p^n for any positive integer n. We first deduce some congruences and inequalities and then use these formulas to establish a vanishing criterion for Iwasawa \lambda-invariants which generalizes a result of Takashi Fukuda et. al. for totally real number fields.
