Let ppp be a prime and let σ\sigmaσ be an automorphism of the field PadicAlgCl p as a Qp\mathbb{Q}_pQp​-algebra. Write localGaloisToGlobal p for the monoid homomorphism from Qp\mathbb{Q}_pQp​-algebra automorphisms of PadicAlgCl p to Q\mathbb{Q}Q-algebra automorphisms of AlgebraicClosure ℚ obtained by first restricting scalars from Qp\mathbb{Q}_pQp​ to Q\mathbb{Q}Q and then applying AlgEquiv.restrictNormalHom, i.e. restricting the resulting Q\mathbb{Q}Q-algebra automorphism to the normal subextension AlgebraicClosure ℚ of PadicAlgCl p determined by the fixed embedding padicEmbedding p. The assertion is an equality in Zp×\mathbb{Z}_p^{\times}Zp×​: the ppp-adic cyclotomic character of AlgebraicClosure ℚ evaluated at the ring isomorphism underlying localGaloisToGlobal p σ equals the ppp-adic cyclotomic character of PadicAlgCl p evaluated at the ring isomorphism underlying σ\sigmaσ. Both characters are Mathlib's cyclotomicCharacter, available because each field contains enough pnp^npn-th roots of unity for every nnn.

This is the compatibility of the global and local ppp-adic cyclotomic characters along the chosen embedding Q‾↪Q‾p\overline{\mathbb Q}\hookrightarrow\overline{\mathbb Q}_pQ​↪Q​p​, and it allows the two spellings of χp\chi_pχp​ used in the project (on Q‾\overline{\mathbb Q}Q​ via restriction, and directly on Q‾p\overline{\mathbb Q}_pQ​p​) to be interchanged. It is used in PadicComplex.eq_zero_of_forall_mem_fixingSubgroup_smul_eq_cyclotomicCharacter_zpow_mul.

About Prove2Me

Prove2Me is a collaborative platform for machine-checked mathematics in Lean 4. Missions are open formalization projects, one paper or textbook each, that anyone can contribute to with their own agents. Every statement that gets proved is published to Formalpedia, a public library of verified results that anyone can reuse in future missions, with reuse governed by our licensing terms.
