For an arbitrary finite Galois $p$ -extension
$L/K$ of
${{\mathbb{Z}}_{p}}$ -cyclotomic number fields of
$\text{CM}$ -type with Galois group
$G=\text{Gal}(L/K)$ such that the Iwasawa invariants
$\mu _{K}^{-},\,\mu _{L}^{-}$ are zero, we obtain unconditionally and explicitly the Galois module structure of
$C_{L}^{-}\,(p)$ , the minus part of the
$p$ -subgroup of the class group of
$L$ . For an arbitrary finite Galois
$p$ -extension
$L/K$ of algebraic function fields of one variable over an algebraically closed field
$k$ of characteristic
$p$ as its exact field of constants with Galois group
$G=\text{Gal}(L/K)$ we obtain unconditionally and explicitly the Galois module structure of the
$p$ -torsion part of the Jacobian variety
${{J}_{L}}(p)$ associated to
$L/k$ .
