TauCeti.RingTheory.Norm.Equiv

Norm groups under algebra isomorphisms #

An isomorphism of extensions preserves the norm subgroup of the ground field's units. This permits norm-index calculations in a model extension to be used for any isomorphic extension. The proof uses Mathlib's Algebra.norm_eq_of_algEquiv. The identity extension has the full norm group, as does every finite extension of an algebraically closed field, since its algebra map is an isomorphism.

theorem TauCeti.normGroup_self (K : Type u_1) [Field K] :

The identity extension has the whole unit group as its norm group.

Isomorphic finite field extensions have the same norm group in the ground field.

@[simp]

Every unit is a norm in a finite extension of an algebraically closed field.
