Kummer–Dedekind: the primes over p, with their residue degrees and ramification indices #

Let R be an integrally closed domain, let S be a Dedekind domain that is a torsion-free R-algebra, let x : S be integral over R, and let p be a nonzero maximal ideal of R that is prime to the conductor of R[x] in S. Mathlib's KummerDedekind file matches the prime factors of p S with the irreducible factors of minpoly R x modulo p, and matches their multiplicities. This file turns that match into the form ramification theory uses: a bijection

p.primesOver S ≃ {normalized irreducible factors of minpoly R x mod p}

under which the residue degree of a prime is the degree of the matching polynomial factor and its ramification index is the multiplicity of that factor. Together these say that the factorization of minpoly R x modulo p computes the splitting of p in S completely, which is the content of the Kummer–Dedekind criterion as it is used in practice.

The prime attached to a factor is explicit: it is span (p S ∪ {Q (x)}) for any lift Q of the factor, so the bijection can be evaluated on a concrete example.

These are the arbitrary-Dedekind-domain form of Xavier Roblot's NumberField.Ideal.primesOverSpanEquivMonicFactorsMod, NumberField.Ideal.inertiaDeg_primesOverSpanEquivMonicFactorsMod_symm_apply and NumberField.Ideal.ramificationIdx_primesOverSpanEquivMonicFactorsMod_symm_apply of Mathlib/NumberTheory/NumberField/Ideal/KummerDedekind.lean, and the proofs follow his, with the ℤ-to-ZMod p plumbing that his statements need dropped.

    The residue ring at a Kummer–Dedekind factor: for Q a lift of a normalized irreducible factor of minpoly R x modulo p, the quotient of S by the prime span (p S ∪ {Q (x)}) attached to that factor is (R ⧸ p)[X] modulo the factor.

      The residue degree of a Kummer–Dedekind factor is the degree of the factor: the prime of S over p attached to a normalized irreducible factor d of minpoly R x modulo p has Ideal.inertiaDeg equal to d.natDegree.

      The ramification index of a Kummer–Dedekind factor is its multiplicity: the prime of S over p attached to a normalized irreducible factor d of minpoly R x modulo p has Ideal.ramificationIdx equal to the multiplicity of d in minpoly R x modulo p.

      The converse of Ideal.irreducible_map_of_irreducible_minpoly. If p S is irreducible, that is, if p stays prime in S, then minpoly R x modulo p is irreducible.

      The Kummer–Dedekind irreducibility criterion. p stays prime in S exactly when minpoly R x is irreducible modulo p.
