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.ramificationIdx f p P is the multiplicity of P in map f p, and the inertia degree Ideal.inertiaDeg 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:

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.

noncomputable def Ideal.ramificationIdx {R : Type u} [CommRing R] {S : Type v} [CommRing S] (f : R →+* S) (p : Ideal R) (P : Ideal S) :

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 ramificationIdx is defined to be 0.

    We do not assume P lies over p in the definition; we return 0 instead.
