The Galois action on the semi-local algebra at an infinite place #

Let L/K be an extension of number fields and v an infinite place of K. An automorphism σ of L/K acts on the semi-local algebra K_v ⊗[K] L through the second factor, by id ⊗ σ; this is the base change TauCeti.Algebra.TensorProduct.baseChangeAutHom of σ to K_v. Under the semi-local decomposition K_v ⊗[K] L ≃ ∏_{w ∣ v} L_w it permutes the factors: the component at σ • w of (id ⊗ σ) z is the component of z at w, transported along the isomorphism of completions L_w ≃ L_{σ • w} induced by σ (infiniteSemilocalEquiv_baseChangeAutHom).

When L/K is Galois, the Galois group permutes the places above v transitively, and the stabilizer of one place w — its decomposition group — acts on L_w. The units of the semi-local algebra are then coinduced from the decomposition group: as integral representations of Gal(L/K),

(K_v ⊗[K] L)ˣ ≅ Coind_{D_w}^{Gal(L/K)} L_wˣ,

the map sending y to the function g ↦ ((id ⊗ g) y)_w (infiniteSemilocalUnitsCoindIso); as at the finite places, its bijectivity is an instance of TauCeti.resCoindToHom_bijective_of_transport. Shapiro's lemma therefore computes the cohomology of ∏_{w ∣ v} L_wˣ from the Galois cohomology of the archimedean local field L_w. This is the archimedean counterpart of TauCeti.semilocalUnitsCoindIso at the finite places.

The Galois action permutes the semi-local factors. If σ carries the place w above v to w', then the component at w' of (id ⊗ σ) z is the component of z at w, transported along the isomorphism of completions L_w ≃ L_{w'} induced by σ.

    The units of the completion L_w at an infinite place, as an integral representation of the decomposition group of w acting through decompositionHom.

    Instances For

      The map y ↦ (g ↦ ((id ⊗ g) y)_w) from the semi-local units at an infinite place to the representation coinduced from the units of L_w. It is the morphism adjoint to the projection to the factor at w, which is equivariant for the decomposition group of w.

      Instances For

        The semi-local units at an infinite place are coinduced. For L/K Galois and w a place above the infinite place v, the units of K_v ⊗[K] L are, as an integral representation of Gal(L/K), coinduced from the units of L_w as a representation of the decomposition group of w.
