Galois descent for adeles #
For an extension of number fields L/K, the extension map ๐ธ_K โ ๐ธ_L is injective
(adeleExtension_injective). When L/K is Galois, its image is the set of adeles of L fixed by
Gal(L/K) (mem_range_adeleExtension_iff):
๐ธ_K = (๐ธ_L)^{Gal(L/K)}.
Both statements are read off the base change ๐ธ_K โ[K] L โ ๐ธ_L
(adeleBaseChangeHom_bijective). For injectivity, ๐ธ_K โ ๐ธ_K โ[K] L is injective because L
is flat over K. For the image, Gal(L/K) acts semilinearly on ๐ธ_L, fixes the extended adeles,
and the scalar extension L โ[K] ๐ธ_K โ ๐ธ_L of the extension map is surjective, so its image is
all the invariants by TauCeti.GaloisDescent.range_eq_invariants_of_liftBaseChange_surjective.
These are the adelic input to Galois descent for the ideles of a separable closure, where the ideles of a finite Galois subextension are recovered as the fixed points of its Galois group.
