Ramification index #
Let S/R be an extension of rings, and let q be a prime ideal of S lying over a prime ideal
p of R. Let Sq be the localization of S and q, and let pSq be the image of p in Sq.
Then the ramification index of q over R is defined to be the length of the quotient Sq/pSq as
an Sq-module.
Main definitions #
Ideal.ramificationIdx' q R: The ramification index ofqoverR.
Main statements #
ramificationIdx_eq_ramificationIdx': The ramification index agrees with the usual definition in the case of Dedekind domains.ramificationIdx'_tower: Ramification index is multiplicative in towers.
Let S/R be an extension of rings, and let q be a prime ideal of S lying over a prime ideal
p of R. Let Sq be the localization of S and q, and let pSq be the image of p in Sq.
Then the ramification index of q over R is defined to be the length of the quotient Sq/pSq as
an Sq-module.
When q is not prime, we use a junk value of 0.
This will eventually replace the existing definition of Ideal.ramificationIdx.
