Ramification index and inertia degree #
Given P : ideal S lying over p : ideal R for the ring extension f : R →+* S
(assuming P and p are prime or maximal where needed),
the ramification index ideal.ramification_idx f p P is the multiplicity of P in map f p,
and the inertia degree ideal.inertia_deg f p P is the degree of the field extension
(S / P) : (R / p).
Main results #
The main theorem ideal.sum_ramification_inertia states that for all coprime P lying over p,
Σ P, ramification_idx f p P * inertia_deg f p P equals the degree of the field extension
Frac(S) : Frac(R).
Implementation notes #
Often the above theory is set up in the case where:
Ris the ring of integers of a number fieldK,Lis a finite separable extension ofK,Sis the integral closure ofRinL,pandPare maximal ideals,Pis an ideal lying overpWe will try to relax the above hypotheses as much as possible.
Notation #
In this file, e stands for the ramification index and f for the inertia degree of P over p,
leaving p and P implicit.
The ramification index of P over p is the largest exponent n such that
p is contained in P^n.
In particular, if p is not contained in P^n, then the ramification index is 0.
If there is no largest such n (e.g. because p = ⊥), then ramification_idx is
defined to be 0.

The inertia degree of P : ideal S lying over p : ideal R is the degree of the
extension (S / P) : (R / p).
We do not assume P lies over p in the definition; we return 0 instead.
See inertia_deg_algebra_map for the common case where f = algebra_map R S
and there is an algebra structure R / p → S / P.
Equations
- ideal.inertia_deg f p P = dite (ideal.comap f P = p) (λ (hPp : ideal.comap f P = p), finite_dimensional.finrank (R ⧸ p) (S ⧸ P)) (λ (hPp : ¬ideal.comap f P = p), 0)
Let V be a vector space over K = Frac(R), S / R a ring extension
and V' a module over S. If b, in the intersection V'' of V and V',
is linear independent over S in V', then it is linear independent over R in V.
The statement we prove is actually slightly more general:
- it suffices that the inclusion
algebra_map R S : R → Sis nontrivial - the function
f' : V'' → V'doesn't need to be injective
If b mod p spans S/p as R/p-space, then b itself spans Frac(S) as K-space.
Here,
pis an ideal ofRsuch thatR / pis nontrivialKis a field that has an embedding ofR(in particular we can takeK = Frac(R))Lis a field extension ofKSis the integral closure ofRinL
More precisely, we avoid quotients in this statement and instead require that b ∪ pS spans S.
If p is a maximal ideal of R, and S is the integral closure of R in L,
then the dimension [S/pS : R/p] is equal to [Frac(S) : Frac(R)].
R / p has a canonical map to S / (P ^ e), where e is the ramification index
of P over p.
If P lies over p, then R / p has a canonical map to S / P.
This can't be an instance since the map f : R → S is generally not inferrable.

S ⧸ P embeds into the quotient by P^(i+1) ⧸ P^e as a subspace of P^i ⧸ P^e.

Since the inclusion (P^(i + 1) / P^e) ⊂ (P^i / P^e) has a kernel isomorphic to P / S,
[P^i / P^e : R / p] = [P^(i+1) / P^e : R / p] + [P / S : R / p]
If p is a maximal ideal of R, S extends R and P^e lies over p,
then the dimension [S/(P^e) : R/p] is equal to e * [S/P : R/p].
If p is a maximal ideal of R, S extends R and P^e lies over p,
then the dimension [S/(P^e) : R/p], as a natural number, is equal to e * [S/P : R/p].

The fundamental identity of ramification index e and inertia degree f:
for P ranging over the primes lying over p, ∑ P, e P * f P = [Frac(S) : Frac(R)];
here S is a finite R-module (and thus Frac(S) : Frac(R) is a finite extension) and p
is maximal.
