Integral closures in a Galois extension over a Dedekind base #

Let A be a Dedekind domain with fraction field K, let M / K be a finite Galois extension, and let B be the integral closure of A in M. For a subgroup H of Gal(M/K), let C be the integral closure of A in the fixed field M ^ H. This file bundles the structure that a Dedekind base provides for these rings: B is a domain, finite and flat over A, with Galois group Gal(M/K), and C is a Dedekind domain, finite and flat over A. Together with TauCeti.IsIntegralClosure.isGaloisGroup_fixedField_and_faithfulSMul, these are the instances needed to specialize statements about invariant rings to integral closures.

The statement for C only requires that M ^ H be finite and separable over K; the ambient extension M / K need not be finite or Galois.

Main results #

Over a Dedekind base, B is a finite flat A-algebra and a domain, with Galois group Gal(M/K).

Over a Dedekind base, the integral closure in a finite separable fixed field is a Dedekind domain and a finite flat A-algebra. The ambient extension need not be finite or Galois.
