Finite-place permutation lattices #
For a finite Galois extension of number fields L/K and a finite set S of finite places of
K, the permutation lattice on the primes of L above S has Herbrand quotient
∏ v ∈ S, [L_w : K_v]. Each factor is independent of the choice of a prime w above v.
Cyclicity is not needed. This supplies the finite-place factors in the permutation lattice
used to compare the logarithmic S-unit lattice with the augmentation hyperplane.
For cyclic L/K and nonempty S, the sum-zero lattice on these finite places has quotient
∏ v ∈ S, [L_w : K_v] / [L : K]. Archimedean factors and the logarithmic comparison with
S-units are separate from this finite-place calculation.

The permutation lattice on the canonical carrier of primes above a finite set of finite places has Herbrand quotient the product of their local degrees. The prime above each place may be chosen arbitrarily.
For a cyclic extension and a nonempty finite set of finite places, the sum-zero lattice
on the primes above those places has Herbrand quotient the product of local degrees divided
by the global degree. This is the finite-place augmentation calculation, not yet the
Herbrand quotient of the S-units.
