Abstract

We prove the rank of the group of signatures of the circular units (hence also the full group of
units) of
tends
to infinity with
.
We also show the signature rank of the units differs from its maximum possible value
by a bounded amount for all the real subfields of the composite of an abelian field
with finitely many odd prime-power cyclotomic towers. In particular, for any prime
the signature rank of
the units of
differs from
by an amount that is
bounded independent of
.
Finally, we show conditionally that for general cyclotomic fields the unit
signature rank can differ from its maximum possible value by an arbitrarily large
amount.
