The local fibre count for counted subextensions #

These IntermediateField theorems specialize the root-ball criterion to totally ramified subextensions of a fixed separable closure. They install each finite subextension's canonical local-field structures, so callers supply only membership in totallyRamifiedOfDegree.

For a uniformizer ξ, a monic degree-n polynomial g, and radius order r > d, where d is the discriminant exponent, the ball v_L(z - ξ) ≥ r contains a root precisely when v_L(g(ξ)) ≥ r + d, and that root is unique. This criterion supplies the local fibres used to integrate the root count of Eisenstein polynomials. For a left-invariant measure on the coefficient space normalized on the integer box, the fibre over such a ball has volume q ^ (-(r + d)), where q is the residue cardinality of K.

For a uniformizer ξ of L and d < r, where d is the discriminant exponent, and a left-invariant measure on Fin n → K normalized on the integer box, the monic polynomials of degree n over 𝒪[K] having a root in the ball v_L(z - ξ) ≥ r, identified with their lower coefficients, have volume q ^ (-(r + d)), where q = Nat.card 𝓀[K].
