Let AAA be a commutative local ring which is also a Dedekind domain, and let BBB be a commutative local ring which is a Dedekind domain, equipped with an AAA-algebra structure making BBB a torsion-free and module-finite AAA-module. Let GGG be a group acting on BBB by ring automorphisms, with GGG finite, such that IsGaloisGroup G A B holds, i.e. GGG realises B/AB/AB/A as a Galois extension in the sense of that predicate. Assume the maximal ideal of BBB lies over the maximal ideal of AAA, and that the residue extension (B/mB)/(A/mA)(B/\mathfrak{m}_B)/(A/\mathfrak{m}_A)(B/mB​)/(A/mA​) is separable. Assume finally mA≠⊥\mathfrak{m}_A \neq \botmA​=⊥. Then the cardinality of the zeroth lower-numbering ramification group G0G_0G0​ of BBB relative to GGG — which by definition is the inertia subgroup of GGG attached to the ideal mB0+1=mB\mathfrak{m}_B^{0+1} = \mathfrak{m}_BmB0+1​=mB​, namely the subgroup of those σ∈G\sigma \in Gσ∈G with σ(b)−b∈mB\sigma(b) - b \in \mathfrak{m}_Bσ(b)−b∈mB​ for all b∈Bb \in Bb∈B — equals eee, the ramification index ramificationIdxIn of mA\mathfrak{m}_AmA​ in BBB.

This is the classical identification of the order of the inertia group with the ramification index, ∣G0∣=e|G_0| = e∣G0​∣=e, in the local Galois setting with separable residue extension. It is used to convert the different-filtration formula, which is naturally expressed through ∣G0∣|G_0|∣G0​∣, into the tame statement d=me−1\mathfrak{d} = \mathfrak{m}^{e-1}d=me−1; it is cited by IsDiscreteValuationRing.addVal_coe_eq_lowerRamificationCard_zero_mul_addVal_fixedPoints.

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.
