Local reciprocity for the multiplicative p-adic completion #

Let L/K be a finite extension, L a nonarchimedean local field of characteristic zero, and let V ≤ G_K be the open subgroup fixing the copy ι(L) of L in a separable closure of K. Local reciprocity identifies the multiplicative p-adic completion A(L) = lim_m Lˣ/(Lˣ)^(p^m) with V^ab(p), the maximal pro-p quotient of the topological abelianization of V ≃ G_L. The construction identifies A(L) with the maximal pro-p quotient of the profinite completion of Lˣ, applies the profinite-completion form of local reciprocity ClassFieldTheory.profiniteCompletionArtinEquiv, and transports the result along G_L ≃ V.

When L/K is normal, G_K ⧸ V ≃ Gal(L/K) acts on both sides, and the identification is equivariant. This is what lets statements about the class module V^ab(p) of the pair V ◁ G_K be read as statements about the Gal(L/K)-module A(L). Equivariance reduces, by density of Lˣ in A(L), to the naturality of the Artin map under the field automorphisms of L (ClassFieldTheory.artinMap_congr).

Second cohomology with this conjugation action is identified with second cohomology of the completed-units representation by explicitH2EquivPadicCompletionUnits; its cocycle formula retains the reciprocity coordinates when comparing coefficient maps.

The reciprocity isomorphism #

Local reciprocity for A(L), absolute form. The multiplicative p-adic completion A(L) is the maximal pro-p quotient of the abelianized absolute Galois group G_L^ab of L: it is the maximal pro-p quotient of the profinite completion of Lˣ, which local reciprocity identifies with G_L^ab (ClassFieldTheory.profiniteCompletionArtinEquiv).

    The absolute form of local reciprocity for A(L) sends the class of a unit to the class of its absolute Artin symbol.

    Local reciprocity for A(L). If V ≤ G_K is the subgroup fixing the image of a finite extension L/K under ι : L →ₐ[K] Kˢ, then the multiplicative p-adic completion A(L) of Lˣ is canonically isomorphic to V^ab(p), the maximal pro-p quotient of the topological abelianization of V.

    Instances For

      On the dense image of Lˣ, local reciprocity for A(L) sends the class of a unit x to the class of σ_V, where σ ∈ G_L represents the absolute Artin symbol of x and σ_V ∈ V is its image under G_L ≃ V.

      Equivariance #

      Equivariance of local reciprocity for A(L). Let L/K be a finite normal extension of p-adic fields and V ≤ G_K the subgroup fixing ι(L). For g ∈ G_K, the action of its restriction ι.restrictNormalHom g ∈ Gal(L/K) on A(L) corresponds to the conjugation action of the class of g in G_K ⧸ V on V^ab(p). As quotientFixingSubgroupFieldRangeEquiv K L ι sends the class of g to ι.restrictNormalHom g, this is equivariance for Gal(L/K) ≃ G_K ⧸ V.

      Reciprocity intertwines the finite Galois group's action on the completed units with its transported conjugation action on the arithmetic pro-p class module.

      Inverse reciprocity intertwines the Galois action on the pro-p class module with the group-algebra action on the completed units, after reading the latter additively.

      Explicit second cohomology of the arithmetic pro-p class module, with the finite Galois group's conjugation action, is second cohomology of the completed-units representation. The comparison reads coefficient values through the inverse of local reciprocity.

        The arithmetic comparison is the generic comparison in any equal inverse-reciprocity coordinates. This characterization keeps its construction opaque to consumers.

        The arithmetic second-cohomology comparison sends a cocycle class to the cocycle obtained by reading its values through inverse local reciprocity.
