The quadratic base of the candidate genus field, as a quadratic field #

For a squarefree integer d, candidateGenusFieldBase hd is the copy of ℚ(√d) cut out inside candidateGenusField hd by the chosen square root candidateGenusFieldBaseRoot hd of d. The quadratic-field API of TauCeti.NumberTheory.NumberField.Quadratic and of Multiquadratic/Quadratic/* — the ring of integers, the discriminant, the ramified primes, the conjugation — is phrased for a number field K presented by an algebraic integer θ : 𝓞 K with

minpoly ℤ θ = X ^ 2 - d and Algebra.adjoin ℚ {(θ : K)} = ⊤.

This file supplies that presentation for the embedded base, so those results become available for it. The generator is candidateGenusFieldBaseGen, the chosen root packaged as an algebraic integer; its minimal polynomial is X ^ 2 - d as soon as d is not a rational square (NumberField.minpoly_integralSqrt), and it generates the base over ℚ because the base is by definition the simple extension it generates.

Main results #

The chosen square root of d, viewed inside the embedded base ℚ(√d) of the candidate genus field rather than inside the candidate genus field itself.

Instances For

    The chosen square root of d, as an algebraic integer of the embedded base. This is the θ of the quadratic-field presentation minpoly ℤ θ = X ^ 2 - d, Algebra.adjoin ℚ {θ} = ⊤.

    Instances For

      The minimal polynomial of the base generator is X ^ 2 - d, for d not a rational square. Together with adjoin_candidateGenusFieldBaseGen_eq_top this presents candidateGenusFieldBase hd as the quadratic field ℚ(√d) in the form the quadratic-field API expects.

      The chosen square root of d generates the embedded base as an intermediate field: the base is by definition the simple extension it generates, read one level down.

      The base generator generates the base over ℚ. The embedded base is by definition the simple extension generated by the chosen square root of d; being integral, that root generates the base already as a ℚ-algebra.
