Fundamental identity in ramification theory: the sum over primes P of S
above a maximal ideal p of R of e_P · f_P equals the field extension
degree [L : K].
Fundamental identity in the local case (DVR extension): e · f = [L : K].
Abbreviation for Algebra.IsUnramifiedAt R P, naming the property that an
algebra R → S is unramified at the prime P of S lying over p.
Instances For
Being unramified at P implies the ramification index e_P = 1.
For Dedekind domains in good characteristic, being unramified at P is
equivalent to e_P = 1.
For a finite separable field extension K ⊆ L, the discriminant with
respect to any basis is non-zero.
For a finite separable field extension, the discriminant is a unit.
The number of primes above p is bounded by [L : K].
Sum of ramification indices over primes above p is bounded by [L : K].
Each ramification index e_P is bounded by [L : K].
Each inertia degree f_P is bounded by [L : K].
Lying-over for Dedekind domains: any non-zero prime p of R has a prime
P of S lying over it, when R ⊆ S is a finite faithfully flat extension.
The contraction of a prime ideal of S is a prime ideal of R.
Every prime ideal P of S lies over its contraction P ∩ R.
The set of primes of S above a non-zero maximal ideal p of R is finite.
Local contribution at p to the ramification divisor: the sum
∑_{P|p} (e_P - 1).
Instances For
The local ramification at p is non-negative.
The local ramification at p is bounded by the field extension degree
[L : K].
The local ramification at p vanishes iff every prime above p is
unramified.
