In this paper we will discuss p-adic Artin L-functions. The existence of these functions is a simple consequence of a theorem of Deligne and Ribet [4]. One can formulate a “p-adic Artin conjecture” for these functions. Our primary purpose here is to relate this conjecture to the “main conjecture” discussed by Coates in [3]. We will describe the precise formulations of these conjectures that we will use later. Our main result will be that in fact the main conjecture implies the p-adic Artin conjecture.
