The unramified coordinate of the abelianized absolute Galois group #
Let K be a nonarchimedean local field, G_K = Field.absoluteGaloisGroup K its absolute Galois
group and G_K^{ab} = Field.absoluteGaloisGroupAbelianization K the topological abelianization.
This file defines the unramified coordinate
TauCeti.unramifiedCoordinate K : G_K^{ab} →ₜ* ℤ̂,
the continuous homomorphism induced by restriction to the maximal unramified extension K^{ur}
followed by the identification Gal(K^{ur}/K) ≃ₜ* ℤ̂ carrying arithmetic Frobenius to the
canonical generator zHat.gen. Since ℤ̂ is commutative, restriction factors through the
topological abelianization.
The coordinate is normalized arithmetically: the class of σ has coordinate zHat.gen exactly
when σ is an arithmetic Frobenius lift, and more generally coordinate zHat.gen ^ n exactly
when σ acts on K^{ur} as the n-th power of Frobenius, hence on every unramified extension
K_f of finite degree as the n-th power of its arithmetic Frobenius. It is surjective, and its
kernel is the image of the inertia subgroup. It is the coordinate in which the arithmetic
normalization of local class field theory is expressed: the local Artin map sends x ∈ Kˣ to an
element of unramified coordinate zHat.gen ^ v_K(x), for v_K the normalized valuation.

Instances For
The unramified coordinate of the class of σ is the image in ℤ̂ of the restriction of σ
to the maximal unramified extension.
Integral coordinates. The class of σ has unramified coordinate zHat.gen ^ n exactly
when σ acts on the maximal unramified extension as the n-th power of its arithmetic
Frobenius.
Arithmetic normalization. The class of σ has unramified coordinate zHat.gen exactly
when σ is an arithmetic Frobenius lift.
Two elements of the absolute Galois group have the same unramified coordinate exactly when they
agree on the unramified extension K_f of every degree f.
The unramified coordinate at finite level. An element of the absolute Galois group whose
class has unramified coordinate zHat.gen ^ n acts on the unramified extension K_f of any degree
f as the n-th power of the arithmetic Frobenius of K_f / K.
The class of σ has trivial unramified coordinate exactly when σ lies in the inertia
subgroup.
The kernel of the unramified coordinate is the image of the inertia subgroup in the topological abelianization.
The unramified coordinate is surjective: every element of ℤ̂ is the coordinate of some
element of the absolute Galois group.
