Laurent series over a finite field form a local field #

For a field K, the formal Laurent series K⸨X⸩ carry Mathlib's X-adic valuation LaurentSeries.valued. This file equips K⸨X⸩ with the valuative relation that valuation induces, checks that the X-adic topology is the valuative topology and that the relation is nontrivial, and identifies the ring of integers of the relation with the power series and its residue field with K. When K is finite, K⸨X⸩ is a nonarchimedean local field: it is the equal-characteristic local field 𝔽_q((X)), with residue field 𝔽_q.

Main results #

Implementation notes #

Local compactness is transported from the X-adic completion of K⟮X⟯, which is a nonarchimedean local field by IsDedekindDomain.HeightOneSpectrum.isNonarchimedeanLocalField_adicCompletion, along Mathlib's uniform equivalence LaurentSeries.comparePkg between that completion and K⸨X⸩.
