The idele congruence subgroup of a modulus #
Let K be a number field and πͺ a modulus of K. The idele congruence subgroup
ideleCongruenceSubgroup πͺ is the subgroup of the idele group cut out placewise by the
conditions that πͺ prescribes:
- at a finite place
vdividing the finite part ofπͺ, the coordinate is a principal unit of levelπͺ.exponent v, that is, thev-adic valuation ofx_v - 1is at mostexp (-πͺ.exponent v); - at every other finite place, the coordinate is a unit of the valuation ring;
- at a real place selected by the infinite part of
πͺ, the coordinate is positive; - at every remaining infinite place, no condition at all.
A principal unit of positive level is a unit of the valuation ring, so an idele of the congruence
subgroup is a unit at every finite place: the fractional ideal it defines is trivial. This is
ideleCongruenceSubgroup.valued_ideleFiniteCoord_eq_one, and it is what makes the principal
ideles of the congruence subgroup exactly the units of π K congruent to one modulo πͺ
(unitEmbedding_mem_ideleCongruenceSubgroup_iff).
Dropping the unit conditions away from πͺ gives the larger subgroup ideleCongrOneSubgroup πͺ of
ideles congruent to one modulo πͺ, which imposes conditions only at the places of πͺ. It is
the idelic counterpart of congruenceSubgroup πͺ: a principal idele is congruent to one exactly
when its generator is (unitEmbedding_mem_ideleCongrOneSubgroup_iff). Such an idele is still a
unit at every finite divisor of πͺ, so the fractional ideal it defines is prime to πͺ; this is
what lets it be sent to the ray class group.
The two structural facts about the family πͺ β¦ ideleCongruenceSubgroup πͺ are that each member
is open in the idele topology β the conditions at the finitely many places of πͺ are open, and
away from them the condition is membership in the open subgroup of everywhere-integral ideles β
and that the family is antitone: a larger modulus imposes stronger conditions. Moreover the
congruence subgroup of the greatest common divisor of two moduli is generated by the two congruence
subgroups, since an idele can be split placewise into two factors.

The ideles congruent to one modulo a modulus: the ideles that are principal units of the
prescribed level at the finite divisors of πͺ and positive at the real places selected by πͺ.
No condition is imposed at any other place. This is the idelic counterpart of
congruenceSubgroup πͺ (unitEmbedding_mem_ideleCongrOneSubgroup_iff).
Instances For
The placewise conditions defining the ideles congruent to one.
The trivial modulus imposes no congruence conditions on an idele.
An idele congruent to one is a unit at every finite divisor of the modulus, because the prescribed exponent there is positive.
The ideles congruent to one decrease as the modulus grows.
The idele congruence subgroup of a modulus: the ideles congruent to one modulo πͺ that
are moreover units of the valuation ring at the finite places not dividing πͺ. Explicitly, they
are principal units of the prescribed level at the finite divisors of πͺ, units of the valuation
ring at the remaining finite places, and positive at the real places selected by πͺ. No
condition is imposed at the infinite places outside πͺ.
Instances For
The placewise conditions defining the idele congruence subgroup.
An idele of the congruence subgroup is a unit at every finite place. Away from the finite part this is the defining condition, and at a divisor of the finite part it follows from the congruence, because the prescribed exponent there is positive.
The finite components of a congruence idele are integral: at every finite place v, the
v-component of the underlying adele lies in the valuation ring.
The congruence condition on the underlying adele: if v ^ n divides the finite part of
πͺ, then the v-component of a congruence idele is congruent to 1 to level n. For n = 0
this is the integrality of the component.
The idele congruence subgroups decrease as the modulus grows.
The idele congruence subgroup lies in the ideles congruent to one.
The finite coordinates of a congruence idele lie in the prescribed steps of the unit
filtration: at every finite place v, the coordinate of an idele of
ideleCongruenceSubgroup πͺ lies in U(K_v, πͺ.exponent v).
An idele concentrated at one finite place lies in the congruence subgroup exactly when its
component lies in the prescribed step of the unit filtration. For u β K_vΛ£, the idele with
component u at v and 1 elsewhere lies in ideleCongruenceSubgroup πͺ exactly when
u β U(K_v, πͺ.exponent v): a unit of π_v when v does not divide πͺ, and a principal unit of
level πͺ.exponent v when it does.
Removing the component at one place from a congruence idele. Let v be a finite place
and let the modulus πͺ impose, away from v, no condition that π« does not. Dividing an idele
of the congruence subgroup of π« by the idele concentrated at v with the same v-component
gives an idele of the congruence subgroup of πͺ.
Openness #
The idele congruence subgroup is open. Away from the modulus the condition is membership
in the open subring of everywhere-integral adeles, at the finitely many finite divisors of πͺ it
is a closed valuation ball, and at the finitely many selected real places it is a strict
inequality; imposing the same conditions on x and on xβ»ΒΉ turns the integrality conditions into
the unit conditions.
Principal ideles and the trivial modulus #
The principal ideles congruent to one are the elements congruent to one. At a finite
divisor of πͺ the coordinate of a principal idele is the global element, whose valuation in the
completion is its v-adic valuation, and at a real place its sign is that of the real embedding.
The principal ideles of the congruence subgroup are the congruence units. A principal
idele lies in ideleCongruenceSubgroup πͺ exactly when its generator is the image of a unit of
π K congruent to one modulo πͺ: the local unit conditions force the generator to be integral
together with its inverse, and what is left of the conditions is IsCongrOne πͺ.
The trivial modulus gives the ideles that are units at every finite place. No prime divides the unit ideal and the infinite part is empty, so only the local unit conditions survive.
The idele congruence subgroup consists of the ideles congruent to one that are units at every finite place.
The greatest common divisor of two moduli #
The idele congruence subgroup of a greatest common divisor is generated by the two
congruence subgroups. An idele satisfying the conditions of πͺ.gcd π« is split into two
ideles by distributing its components: the components at the finite places where πͺ has the
larger exponent and at the real places of πͺ outside π« form an idele of the congruence
subgroup of π«, and the remaining components form an idele of the congruence subgroup of
πͺ.
