Normalized absolute values on archimedean completions #

NumberField.InfinitePlace.completionNormalizedAbsValue is the norm on w.Completion raised to w.mult, as a multiplicative map with zero. The exponent is one at real places and two at complex places. For a number field, its restriction agrees with the normalization in NumberField.prod_abs_eq_one; these completion-side maps supply the archimedean factors of the idele norm.

NumberField.InfinitePlace.Completion.norm_algebraMap compares the completion norm with the place absolute value on the dense base field. The normalized value is continuous and takes every nonnegative real value.

Archimedean completions are nontrivially normed fields, and the diagonal embeddings form scalar towers over any commutative semiring base.

    The norm of a field element in its archimedean completion is its place absolute value.

    On the dense copy of K, the infinite completion value is the normalized infinite-place value.

    On the dense copy of K, a real place contributes its ordinary absolute value.

    On the dense copy of K, a complex place contributes the square of its absolute value.

    At a real place the completion value is the ordinary absolute value.

    At a complex place the completion value is the square of the ordinary absolute value.

    Every nonnegative real number is the normalized absolute value of an element of the completion at an infinite place.
