Placewise characterization of idele norms #
An idele is a norm precisely when each coordinate is a norm from the corresponding local
étale algebra for a number-field extension L/K. No restrictedness hypothesis on local
preimages is needed: outside the finitely many ramified places and nonunit target coordinates,
preimages can be chosen as integral units by unramified unit-norm surjectivity and assembled
into an idele.
This is an arithmetic property of the idele norm map, independent of global reciprocity and of the Hasse norm principle for field elements.

Every finite coordinate of an idele norm is a norm from the local étale algebra.
Every infinite coordinate of an idele norm is a norm from the local étale algebra.
An arbitrary idele is a norm exactly when each finite and infinite coordinate is a norm from the actual local étale algebra. No cyclicity or Galois hypothesis is required.
