Restriction of places along a stable intermediate field #
Let E be an intermediate field of L / k carried onto itself by every k-automorphism of L,
so that automorphisms restrict to E through IntermediateField.restrictAlgEquivHom. The
restriction of places from L / k to E / k is then equivariant: the place σ • Q lies over
σ|_E • (Q|_E), and the ramification index of σ • Q over E is that of Q. These are the
compatibilities needed to let Aut(L / k) act on the places of E that ramify in L.
These results generalize TauCeti.Place.restrict_smul and TauCeti.Place.ramificationIdx_smul
of TauCeti/FieldTheory/FunctionField/Place/Extension/Galois.lean, which treat automorphisms
fixing E pointwise, so that σ|_E is the identity there; the proofs follow the same order
computation.
Main results #
TauCeti.Place.restrict_smul_of_map_eq: restriction toEis equivariant.TauCeti.Place.ramificationIdx_smul_of_map_eq: the ramification index overEis invariant.
The order at σ • Q of an element of E is e(Q ∣ E) times its order at
σ|_E • (Q|_E).
Restriction of places is equivariant: σ • Q lies over σ|_E • (Q|_E).
The ramification index over a stable intermediate field is invariant under the
automorphisms of L / k.
