Cyclotomic Galois characters as ray class characters #

Let F = K(μ_m) be an m-th cyclotomic extension of a number field K, and let 𝔪 be the modulus of K with finite part (m) and every real place in its infinite part. This file provides the Artin map of the abelian extension F / K as a homomorphism from the ray class group of 𝔪 to Gal(F/K). It sends the ray class of a prime 𝔭 ∤ m to the Frobenius at 𝔭.

Composing with it, every character χ of Gal(F/K) gives a ray class character of 𝔪, and on the integral ideals prime to m the ideal weight galoisCharacterWeight χ of χ agrees with that ray class character.

Main results #

The cyclotomic modulus of level m: finite part the ideal (m) of 𝓞 K, and every real place of K in the infinite part. The Artin map of K(μ_m) / K factors through its ray class group (cyclotomicArtin). The definition does not unfold outside this file; use cyclotomicModulus_finitePart, mem_cyclotomicModulus_infinitePart and mem_cyclotomicModulus_support_iff.

    The finite part of the cyclotomic modulus of level m is the principal ideal (m).

    @[simp]

    Every real place of K lies in the infinite part of the cyclotomic modulus.

    A prime lies in the support of the cyclotomic modulus exactly when it divides m.

    The cyclotomic modulus of level m divides that of every multiple n of m.

    A height-one prime is prime to the cyclotomic modulus exactly when it does not divide m.

    For F = K(μ_m), every prime of 𝓞 F above a prime v of 𝓞 K outside the support of cyclotomicModulus K m (that is, with (m : 𝓞 K) ∉ v.asIdeal) is unramified over 𝓞 K.

    The Artin map of a cyclotomic extension on the ray class group. For F = K(μ_m) the Artin map of the abelian extension F / K on the fractional ideals prime to m is trivial on the ray of cyclotomicModulus K m, and so factors through its ray class group. The definition does not unfold outside this file; it sends the ray class of a prime 𝔭 ∤ m to the Frobenius at 𝔭 (cyclotomicArtin_idealClass_of_isArithFrobAt).

    Instances For

      The cyclotomic Artin map composed with the ray class map is the ideal-theoretic Artin map on fractional ideals prime to the cyclotomic modulus.

      The Artin map sends the ray class of a prime to its Frobenius. At a height-one prime 𝔭 not dividing m, every arithmetic Frobenius at every prime of 𝓞 F above 𝔭 is the image of the ray class of 𝔭.

      The Artin maps of two levels agree. If F is both the m-th and the n-th cyclotomic extension of K, the Artin maps of levels m and n agree on the ray class group of every common multiple of the two cyclotomic moduli.

      The ideal weight of a cyclotomic Galois character is a ray class character. For a character χ of Gal(F/K) with F = K(μ_m), the ideal weight galoisCharacterWeight χ agrees, on the integral ideals prime to m, with the ray class character χ ∘ cyclotomicArtin K F m of cyclotomicModulus K m.
