The global Artin symbol of a prime idele is arithmetic Frobenius #
Let L/K be a finite Galois extension of number fields and v a finite place of K. The
prime idele class primeIdeleClass K v ∈ C_K is the class of the idele with a uniformizer of
K_v at v and 1 at every other place. It is the idelic counterpart of the prime ideal v.
If v is unramified in L and σ ∈ Gal(L/K) is an arithmetic Frobenius at a prime Q of L
above v, then the global Artin symbol of the class of the idele concentrated at v with
component x ∈ K_vˣ is the class of σ raised to the normalized valuation of x
(globalArtinMap_ofAdicCompletion_eq_of_isArithFrobAt). This combines the local–global
compatibility globalArtinMap_local with the unramified local computation
localArtinAt_eq_of_isArithFrobAt. In particular the Artin symbol of the prime idele class is
the class of Frobenius, whichever uniformizer represents it
(globalArtinMap_primeIdeleClass_eq_of_isArithFrobAt).
For L/K abelian, Gal(L/K) is its own abelianization, so this pins the Artin symbol down as an
automorphism: an automorphism whose class is the Artin symbol of the class of the idele with any
uniformizer of K_v at v and 1 at every other place is an arithmetic Frobenius at every prime
of L above v (isArithFrobAt_of_globalArtinMap_ofAdicCompletion_eq), in particular for the
prime idele class (globalArtinMap_isArithFrobAt). This is the arithmetic, rather than geometric,
normalization of the global Artin map. Since a Frobenius at an unramified prime has order the
residue degree, so does the Artin symbol of the prime idele class
(addOrderOf_globalArtinMap_primeIdeleClass); in particular the symbol is trivial exactly when v
splits completely. In a quadratic extension the symbol is the nontrivial automorphism exactly
when v is inert (globalArtinMap_quadratic_prime).
Consequently the global Artin map agrees with the ideal-theoretic Artin map
TauCeti.NumberFieldArithmetic.artinHomAway on the primes outside a finite set S containing
the ramified ones: for an abelian L/K and v ∉ S, the Artin symbol of the prime idele class at
v is the class of the value of artinHomAway at the prime v (globalArtinMap_ideal). Since
a homomorphism on the ideals prime to S is determined by its values on primes, every such
homomorphism whose prime values are the global Artin symbols of the prime idele classes is
artinHomAway itself (eq_artinHomAway_of_globalArtinMap).

The prime idele class at a finite place v of a number field K: the class in the idele
class group of the idele whose component at v is a chosen uniformizer of K_v and whose other
components are 1. At a place unramified in a finite Galois extension its global Artin symbol does
not depend on the choice (globalArtinMap_primeIdeleClass_eq_of_isArithFrobAt).
Instances For
The prime idele class at v is the class of the idele concentrated at v with a uniformizer
of K_v as component.
The global Artin symbol at an unramified place. If v is unramified at a prime Q of L
above it and σ ∈ Gal(L/K) is an arithmetic Frobenius at Q, then the global Artin symbol of the
class of the idele concentrated at v with component x ∈ K_vˣ is the class of σ raised to the
normalized valuation of x.
The global Artin symbol of a prime idele class is Frobenius. If v is unramified at a prime
Q of L above it and σ ∈ Gal(L/K) is an arithmetic Frobenius at Q, then the global Artin
symbol of the prime idele class at v is the class of σ in Gal(L/K)^ab.
Arithmetic Frobenius normalization of the global Artin map. For a finite abelian extension
L/K of number fields and a finite place v of K unramified at a prime Q of L above it, an
automorphism σ ∈ Gal(L/K) whose class is the global Artin symbol of the class of the idele with a
uniformizer π of K_v at v and 1 at every other place is an arithmetic Frobenius at Q.
Arithmetic Frobenius normalization at the prime idele class. For a finite abelian
extension L/K of number fields and a finite place v of K unramified at a prime Q of L
above it, an automorphism σ ∈ Gal(L/K) whose class is the global Artin symbol of the prime idele
class at v is an arithmetic Frobenius at Q.
The order of the Artin symbol of a prime is its residue degree. For a finite abelian
extension L/K of number fields and a finite place v of K unramified at a prime Q of L
above it, the global Artin symbol of the prime idele class at v has order the residue degree
f(Q | v).
Splitting criterion through the Artin symbol. For a finite abelian extension L/K of
number fields and a finite place v of K unramified at a prime Q of L above it, the global
Artin symbol of the prime idele class at v is trivial exactly when Q has residue degree 1,
that is, when v splits completely in L.
Artin symbols in a quadratic extension. Let L/K be a quadratic extension of number
fields with nontrivial automorphism τ, and let v be a finite place of K unramified at a prime
Q of L above it. The global Artin symbol of the prime idele class at v is the class of τ
exactly when Q has residue degree 2, that is, when v is inert in L. Otherwise it is trivial
(globalArtinMap_primeIdeleClass_eq_zero_iff_inertiaDeg_eq_one).
Comparison with the ideal-theoretic Artin map. For a finite abelian extension L/K of
number fields, unramified outside a finite set S of finite places of K, and a finite place v
whose prime ideal I is prime to S (so v ∉ S), the global Artin symbol of the prime idele class
at v is the class of the value of NumberFieldArithmetic.artinHomAway at I, that is, of the
arithmetic Frobenius at v.
The global Artin symbols of the prime idele classes determine the ideal-theoretic Artin
map. For a finite abelian extension L/K of number fields, unramified outside a finite set S
of finite places of K, a homomorphism φ on the ideals prime to S whose value at each prime
v ∉ S represents the global Artin symbol of the prime idele class at v is
NumberFieldArithmetic.artinHomAway.
