Laurent expansions and residues at rational places #
Let P be a rational place of F / k and let t have order one at P. Passing to fraction
fields, the identification of the completed valuation ring with k[[T]] becomes a
k-algebra isomorphism of the completion of F at P with the Laurent-series field
k((T)), sending t to T. It carries the valuation of P to the T-adic valuation.
Composing with the completion map gives the Laurent expansion of every function in F.
Its coefficients below m depend only on the function modulo the m-th order filtration,
and a finite sum ∑ cᵢ tⁱ congruent to the function modulo that filtration has exactly the
coefficients cᵢ. The coefficient of T⁻¹ is the residue res_{P,t} of a function with
respect to t. It vanishes on functions integral at P and is read off the power-series
expansion of t ^ (n + 1) * z whenever this product is integral.

Laurent expansions of functions #
The Laurent expansion of a function at a rational place in a chosen uniformizer: the image
of the function under completion and TauCeti.Place.completionEquivLaurentSeries.
Instances For
The Laurent expansion of a function is the Laurent expansion of its image in the completion.
The Laurent expansion of an integral function is its power-series expansion.
A function vanishing to order at least m has no Laurent coefficients below m.
The Laurent coefficients below m depend only on the function modulo the m-th order
filtration.
A finite Laurent polynomial in the uniformizer expands with its own coefficients.
Uniqueness of finite Laurent expansions: if a function agrees with ∑ cⱼ tʲ modulo the
m-th order filtration, then its Laurent coefficients below m are the cⱼ, read as zero
outside the summation range.
Multiplying by t ^ n to make a function integral shifts its Laurent coefficients onto
the coefficients of a power-series expansion.
A function vanishes to order at least m at the place exactly when its Laurent coefficients
below m vanish.
A nonzero Laurent coefficient bounds the order of a function from above.
Truncated Laurent expansions. Removing the terms of the Laurent expansion of a function
from its order up to degree m - 1 leaves a function vanishing to order at least m.
Residues #
The residue res_{P,t} of a function at a rational place with respect to a chosen
uniformizer: the coefficient of t⁻¹ in its Laurent expansion (Stichtenoth,
Definition 4.2.8). It is k-linear.
Instances For
If t ^ (n + 1) * z is integral, the residue of z is the degree-n coefficient of the
power-series expansion of t ^ (n + 1) * z.
