Decomposition and Inertia fields #
In this file, we develop Hilbert Theory on the splitting of prime ideals in a Galois extension.
Let L/K be a Galois extension of fields. Let A and B be subrings of K L respectively with
K fraction field of A, L fraction field of B and B the integral closure of A in L.
For P a prime ideal of B, the decomposition field D of P in L/K is the subfield of
elements of L fixed by the stabilizer of P in Gal(L/K), and the inertia field E of P
in L/K is the subfield of elements of L fixed by the inertia group of P in Gal(L/K).
Let L/K be a Galois extension of fields and let P be a prime ideal of B. The predicate that
says that D is the decomposition field of P in L/K, that is the subfield fixed by the
decomposition subgroup of P, that is the stabilizer of P in Gal(L/K).

Let L/K be a Galois extension of fields and let P be a prime ideal of B. The predicate that
says that E is the inertia field of P in L/K, that is the subfield fixed by the inertia
subgroup of P in Gal(L/K).
- faithful : FaithfulSMul (↥(Ideal.inertia Gal(L/K) P)) L
- commutes : SMulCommClass (↥(Ideal.inertia Gal(L/K) P)) E L
- isInvariant : Algebra.IsInvariant E L ↥(Ideal.inertia Gal(L/K) P)
Instances
If G is a Galois group for L/K and the stabilizer of P in G is a Galois group for
L/D, then D is a decomposition field for P.
If G is a Galois group for L/K and the inertia group of P in G is a Galois group for
L/E, then E is an inertia field for P.
Two decomposition fields are isomorphic.

The degree [L : D] of L over the decomposition field D equals the product of the
ramification index and the inertia degree of p in B.
The degree [D : K] of the decomposition field D over K equals the number of prime ideals
of B lying over p.
The degree [L : E] of L over the inertia field E equals the ramification index of p in B.
The degree [E : K] of the inertia field E over K equals the product of the number of
prime ideals of B lying over p and the inertia degree of p in B.
The degree [E : D] of the inertia field E over the decomposition field D equals the
inertia degree of p in B.
