Galois descent for ideles #

For an extension of number fields L/K, the extension map of ideles I_K → I_L is injective (ideleExtension_injective). When L/K is Galois, its image is the set of ideles of L fixed by Gal(L/K) (mem_range_ideleExtension_iff):

I_K = (I_L)^{Gal(L/K)}.

Both are the corresponding statements for adeles (adeleExtension_injective, mem_range_adeleExtension_iff), applied to an idele and to its inverse.

Galois descent for ideles: for a Galois extension L/K, an idele of L is extended from an idele of K exactly when it is fixed by every element of Gal(L/K).

Extension of idele classes along a surjective algebraMap is bijective: when every element of L comes from K, a principal idele of L extended from K is the extension of a principal idele of K, and every idele of L is fixed by the trivial group Gal(L/K), so it descends to K.
