Abstract
In this paper abelian function fields are restricted to the subfields of cyclotomic function fields. For any abelian function field K / k with conductor an irreducible polynomial over a finite field of odd characteristic, we give a calculating formula of the relative divisor class number h K − of K. And using the given calculating formula we obtain a criterion for checking whether or not the relative divisor class number is divisible by the characteristic of k.
