Abstract

Based on an elementary version of Leopoldt's conjecture due to Iwasawa and Sands we develop an algorithm for testing this conjecture in an arbitrary algebraic number field for any prime p. Using this algorithm we are able to prove Leopoldt's conjecture for several pure fields of degree 5 and 7. We also discuss relations with class numbers.
