Galois groups of integral closures #

If G is a finite Galois group of a field extension M / L and C is an integrally closed domain with fraction field L, then G is a Galois group of the integral closure B of C in M over C, for any action of G on B compatible with its action on M.

Mathlib's IsGaloisGroup.of_isFractionRing states this with M a fraction field of B and B / C integral; both follow from B being the integral closure of C in M, which is how the rings arise over a Dedekind base. The second statement is the form needed for a tower: for a domain A with fraction field K, a finite extension L of K, an extension M of L, and the integral closures C and B of A in L and in M, a Galois group of M / L is a Galois group of B / C. The third statement specializes the tower to a fixed field: for a finite extension M / K and a subgroup H of Gal(M/K), with C the integral closure of A in M ^ H, the subgroup H is a Galois group of B / C.

The action of Gal(L/K) on an integral closure B of A in L commutes with the action of A, since it is the restriction of the action by K-algebra automorphisms of L.

A Galois group of fields is a Galois group of integral closures. If G is a finite Galois group of M / L, where L is the fraction field of an integrally closed domain C, then G is a Galois group of the integral closure of C in M over C.

Galois groups in a tower of integral closures. Let A be a domain with fraction field K, let L be a finite extension of K and M an extension of L, and let C and B be the integral closures of A in L and in M. A finite Galois group of M / L is then a Galois group of B over C.

Fixed-field subgroups as Galois groups of integral closures. Let A be a domain with fraction field K, let M / K be a finite extension, and let H be a subgroup of Gal(M/K). If C and B are the integral closures of A in the fixed field M ^ H and in M, then H is a Galois group of B over C. The extension M / K need not be Galois.

The subgroup H is a Galois group of B over C, and C embeds in B.
