Cody Holdaway Math 505 Assignment 2 January 20, 2010 Solution to problem 5 Cody Holdaway (1) Let G be a finite abelian group. Prove that there exists an abelian extension of Q with the Galois group G. Proof. If G is a finite abelian group then we know that we can write ∼ G = Z/n1 × Z/n2 ×···× Z/nk . By Dirichlet’s theorem in number theory we know that for any fixed positive integer n, there exists an infinite amount of prime numbers of the form kn +1 where k is a positive integer. This shows that for each ni, we can choose distinct primes pi such ∗ that pi = kini + 1. In other words, ni|pi − 1. Since (Z/pi) is a cyclic group of order ∗ pi − 1 we can find a subgroup Hi of order (pi − 1)/ni. Therefore, (Z/pi) /Hi is a cyclic group of order ni and is therefore isomorphic to Z/ni. This shows that we can write ∼ ∗ ∗ ∗ G = (Z/p1) /H1 × (Z/p2) /H2 ×···× (Z/pk) /Hk ∼ ∗ ∗ = ((Z/p1) ×···× (Z/pk ) )/H1 ×···× Hk. ∗ ∗ Let n = p1 ··· pk, then since the pi are distinct we know that (Z/p1) ×···×(Z/pk) ∼= ∗ ∗ (Z/n) . Let H be the subgroup of (Z/n) that corresponds to H1 ×···× Hk, then we see that ∗ G =∼ (Z/n) /H. Let ξ be a primitive n-th root of unity. Then we know that Gal(Q(ξ)/Q)=(Z/n)∗. Let E = Q(ξ)H be the fixed field of H. Then E is an extension of Q and since (Z/n)∗ is abelian, we know that H is a normal subgroup which implies that E/Q is Galois. Moreover, we know that ∗ Gal(E/Q) =∼ Gal(Q(ξ)/Q)/H ∼= (Z/n) /H =∼ G. This shows that any finite abelian group is the Galois group of some extension of Q. (2) Let K/Q be a finite extension of Q. Let G be a non-trivial finite abelian group. Prove that there exist infinitely many abelian extensions of K with Galois group G. Proof. Just as in part (a) above, write G = Z/n1 × Z/n2 ×···× Z/nk. Then by Dirichlet’s theorem we know that we can find an infinite number of primes pi such that ni|pi − 1 and we can therefore construct an infinite number of k-tuples 0 0 0 {(p1, p2,...,pk)} such that (p1, p2,...,pk) ∩ (p1, p2,...,pk) = ∅. Then we saw that we can construct a Galois extension E with group G such that Q ⊂ E ⊂ Q(ξp1···pk ). where ξp1···pk is a p1 ··· pk-th primitive root of unity. Since this can be done for any of the k-tuple of primes chosen above, we potentially have an infinite number of distinct 1 2 0 0 extensions of Q with Galois group G. Let(p1,...,pk) and (p1,...,pk) be two distinct 0 0 0 k-tuple of primes and let E and E be the subextensions of Q(ξ 1··· ) and Q(ξ ··· ) p pk p1 pk respectively. Since Q(ξn) ∩ Q(ξm)= Q for (n, m) = 1 we see that since all of the pi are different than the pj that 0 0 0 Q ⊂ E ∩ E ⊂ Q(ξ 1··· ) ∩ Q(ξ ··· )= Q p pk p1 pk which shows that E and E0 are distinct extensions of Q with Galois groups G. Let {Eα} be the set of extensions of Q with Galois group G constructed above using the k-tuples of primes. K/Q is a finite extension and since we are in characteristic 0 we know that it is separable. Therefore, there are only a finite number of fields L such that Q ⊂ L ⊂ K. Consider the following diagram, KEα w HH ww HH ww HH ww HH ww H K Eα HH v HH vv HH vv HH vv H vv K ∩ Eα Q Since Eα/Q is Galois we know that KEα/K is Galois and moreover, Gal(KEα/K) = Gal(Eα/K ∩ Eα). K ∩ Eα is a subfield of K for each Eα and we know that there are only finitely many subfields of K/Q. Also, since (K ∩ Eα) ∩ (K ∩ Eβ)= K ∩ (Eα ∩ Eβ)= K ∩ Q = Q we see that only a finite number of the Eα can have intersection with K to be more than Q. Therefore, there is an infinite number of the Eα such that K ∩ Eα = Q. For these Eα we see then that Gal(KEα/K) = Gal(Eα/K ∩ Eα) = Gal(Eα/Q)= G which shows that there are an infinite number of distinct Galois extensions of K that have Galois group G. Addition (Julia). We nee to take care of the following detail pointed out by Jim: prove that there are infinitely many αi such that KEαi , KEαj are different extensions of K. Lemma 0.1. Let m, n, ` be mutually relatively prime. Then Q(ξmn) ∩ Q(ξm`) = Q(ξm). Proof. exercise Lemma 0.2. Let K/Q be a finite extension, and let {m1,...,mi,...} be an infinite sequence of positive integers such that (a) (mi,mj) = 1 for any pair of distinct indices (i, j). 3 (b) K ∩ Q(ξmi )= Q for any mi. Then there exist only finitely many pairs i, j such that K ∩ Q(ξmimj ) =6 Q. Proof. Let Ls be a non-trivial subextension of K, Q ⊂ Ls ⊂ K. Suppose Ls ⊂ Q(ξmimj ) and Ls ⊂ Q(ξmk ml ). Then Ls ⊂ Q(ξmimj ) ∩ Q(ξmkml ). If all four numbers mi,mj,mk,m` are different, then (mimj,mkm`) = 1, and, hence, Q(ξmimj )∩Q(ξmk ml )= Q, a contradiction. Without loss of generality, we may assume that mi = mk. Then Ls ⊂ Q(ξmimj ) ∩ Q(ξmim` )= Q(ξmi ) where the last equality holds by Lemma 0.1. This implies that K ∩ Q(ξmi ) contains Ls and, hence, is nontrivial. This contradicts our hypothesis (b). Hence, for any Ls there is at most one pair (i, j) such that Ls ⊂ Q(ξmimj ). Since K/Q is separable, there are only finitely many different subfields Ls, which finishes the proof of the lemma. Lemma 0.2 implies that by removing finitely many k-tuples (p1,...,pk) we can 0 0 ensure that K ∩ Q(ξp1···pk ξp1···p ) = Q for any two k-tuples in our set. Let m = 0 0 k p1 ··· pk, n = p1 ··· pk. We shall show that K(ξn) ∩ K(ξm) = K which would imply that the corresponding abelian extensions KEα, KEβ (for Eα ⊂ Q(ξn), Eβ ⊂ Q(ξm) are different. Consider the diagram K(ξmξn) L ww LL ww LL ww LLL ww LL ww K H Q(ξmξn) HH q HH qq HH qq HH qqq HH qqq Q q Since K ∩ Q(ξmξn)= Q, and Q(ξmξn)/Q is Galois, we get [K(ξmξn): K]=[Q(ξmξn): Q]= φ(mn) Now consider a tower of extensions K(ξmξn) K(ξm) K The degree of the bottom extension is φ(m) (it follows as above from the fact that K ∩ Q(ξm)= Q). The degree of K(ξmξn)/K equals φ(mn). Hence, [K(ξmξn): K(ξm)] = φ(m) 4 and similarly [K(ξmξn): K(ξn)] = φ(n) Now consider another diagram K(ξmξn) K φ(n) ss KKK φ(m) sss KK ss KKK sss K K(ξm) K(ξn) LL LL rrr LLL rrr φ(m) LL rr φ(n) LL rrr K Since K(ξn)/K is Galois, we have [K(ξmξn): K(ξm)]=[K(ξn): K(ξm) ∩ K(ξn)]. It follows that [K(ξn): K(ξm) ∩ K(ξn)] = φ(n)=[K(ξn): K]. Hence, K(ξm) ∩ K(ξn)= K. .

  • THE INTERSECTION of NORM GROUPS(I) by JAMES AX
    THE INTERSECTION OF NORM GROUPS(i) BY JAMES AX 1. Introduction. Let A be a global field (either a finite extension of Q or a field of algebraic functions in one variable over a finite field) or a local field (a local completion of a global field). Let C(A,n) (respectively: A(A, n), JV(A,n) and £(A, n)) be the set of Xe A such that X is the norm of every cyclic (respectively: abelian, normal and arbitrary) extension of A of degree n. We show that (*) C(A, n) = A(A,n) = JV(A,n) = £(A, n) = A" is "almost" true for any global or local field and any natural number n. For example, we prove (*) if A is a number field and %)(n or if A is a function field and n is arbitrary. In the case when (*) is false we are still able to determine C(A, n) precisely. It then turns out that there is a specified X0e A such that C(A,n) = r0/2An u A". Since we always have C(A,n) =>A(A,n) =>N(A,n) r> £(A,n) =>A", there are thus two possibilities for each of the three middle sets. Determining which is true seems to be a delicate question; our results on this problem, which are incomplete, are presented in §5. 2. Preliminaries. We consider an algebraic number field A as a subfield of the field of all complex numbers. If p is a nonarchimedean prime of A then there is a natural injection A -> Ap where Ap denotes the completion of A at p.

  • The Kronecker-Weber Theorem
    The Kronecker-Weber Theorem Lucas Culler Introduction The Kronecker-Weber theorem is one of the earliest known results in class field theory. It says: Theorem. (Kronecker-Weber-Hilbert) Every abelian extension of the rational numbers Q is con- tained in a cyclotomic extension. Recall that an abelian extension is a finite field extension K/Q such that the galois group Gal(K/Q) th is abelian, and a cyclotomic extension is an extension of the form Q(ζ), where ζ is an n root of unity. This paper consists of two proofs of the Kronecker-Weber theorem. The first is rather involved, but elementary, and uses the theory of higher ramification groups. The second is a simple application of the main results of class field theory, which classifies abelian extension of an arbitrary number field. An Elementary Proof Now we will present an elementary proof of the Kronecker-Weber theoerem, in the spirit of Hilbert’s original proof. The particular strategy used here is given as a series of exercises in Marcus [1]. Minkowski’s Theorem We first prove a classical result due to Minkowski. Theorem. (Minkowski) Any finite extension of Q has nonzero discriminant. In particular, such an extension is ramified at some prime p ∈ Z. Proof. Let K/Q be a finite extension of degree n, and let A = OK be its ring of integers. Consider the embedding: r s A −→ R ⊕ C x 7→ (σ1(x), ..., σr(x), τ1(x), ..., τs(x)) where the σi are the real embeddings of K and the τi are the complex embeddings, with one embedding chosen from each conjugate pair, so that n = r + 2s.

This theorem was first stated in 1853 by Kronecker [2], who provided a partial proof for extensions of odd degree.

  • ON R-EXTENSIONS of ALGEBRAIC NUMBER FIELDS Let P Be a Prime
    ON r-EXTENSIONS OF ALGEBRAIC NUMBER FIELDS KENKICHI IWASAWA1 Let p be a prime number. We call a Galois extension L of a field K a T-extension when its Galois group is topologically isomorphic with the additive group of £-adic integers. The purpose of the present paper is to study arithmetic properties of such a T-extension L over a finite algebraic number field K. We consider, namely, the maximal unramified abelian ^-extension M over L and study the structure of the Galois group G(M/L) of the extension M/L. Using the result thus obtained for the group G(M/L)> we then define two invariants l(L/K) and m(L/K)} and show that these invariants can be also de­ termined from a simple formula which gives the exponents of the ^-powers in the class numbers of the intermediate fields of K and L. Thus, giving a relation between the structure of the Galois group of M/L and the class numbers of the subfields of L, our result may be regarded, in a sense, as an analogue, for L, of the well-known theorem in classical class field theory which states that the class number of a finite algebraic number field is equal to the degree of the maximal unramified abelian extension over that field. An outline of the paper is as follows: in §1—§5, we study the struc­ ture of what we call T-finite modules and find, in particular, invari­ ants of such modules which are similar to the invariants of finite abelian groups.

  • RECENT THOUGHTS on ABELIAN POINTS 1. Introduction While At
    RECENT THOUGHTS ON ABELIAN POINTS 1. Introduction While at MSRI in early 2006, I got asked a very interesting question by Dimitar Jetchev, a Berkeley grad student. It motivated me to study abelian points on al- gebraic curves (and, to a lesser extent, higher-dimensional algebraic varieties), and MSRI's special program on Rational and Integral Points was a convenient setting for this. It did not take me long to ¯nd families of curves without abelian points; I wrote these up in a paper which will appear1 in Math. Research Letters. Since then I have continued to try to put these examples into a larger context. Indeed, I have tried several di®erent larger contexts on for size. When, just a cou- ple of weeks ago, I was completing revisions on the paper, the context of \Kodaira dimension" seemed most worth promoting. Now, after ruminating about my up- coming talk for several days it seems that \Field arithmetic" should also be part of the picture. Needless to say, the ¯nal and optimal context (whatever that might mean!) has not yet been found. So, after having mentally rewritten the beginning of my talk many times, it strikes me that the revisionist approach may not be best: rather, I will for the most part present things in their actual chronological order. 2. Dimitar's Question It was: Question 1. Let C=Q be Selmer's cubic curve: 3X3 + 4Y 3 + 5Z3 = 0: Is there an abelian cubic ¯eld L such that C(L) 6= ;? Or an abelian number ¯eld of any degree? Some basic comments: a ¯nite degree ¯eld extension L=K is abelian if it is Galois with abelian Galois group, i.e., if Aut(L=K) is an abelian group of order [L : K].

  • The Twelfth Problem of Hilbert Reminds Us, Although the Reminder Should
    Some Contemporary Problems with Origins in the Jugendtraum Robert P. Langlands The twelfth problem of Hilbert reminds us, although the reminder should be unnecessary, of the blood relationship of three subjects which have since undergone often separate devel• opments. The first of these, the theory of class fields or of abelian extensions of number fields, attained what was pretty much its final form early in this century. The second, the algebraic theory of elliptic curves and, more generally, of abelian varieties, has been for fifty years a topic of research whose vigor and quality shows as yet no sign of abatement. The third, the theory of automorphic functions, has been slower to mature and is still inextricably entangled with the study of abelian varieties, especially of their moduli. Of course at the time of Hilbert these subjects had only begun to set themselves off from the general mathematical landscape as separate theories and at the time of Kronecker existed only as part of the theories of elliptic modular functions and of cyclotomicfields. It is in a letter from Kronecker to Dedekind of 1880,1 in which he explains his work on the relation between abelian extensions of imaginary quadratic fields and elliptic curves with complex multiplication, that the word Jugendtraum appears. Because these subjects were so interwoven it seems to have been impossible to disentangle the different kinds of mathematics which were involved in the Jugendtraum, especially to separate the algebraic aspects from the analytic or number theoretic. Hilbert in particular may have been led to mistake an accident, or perhaps necessity, of historical development for an “innigste gegenseitige Ber¨uhrung.” We may be able to judge this better if we attempt to view the mathematical content of the Jugendtraum with the eyes of a sophisticated contemporary mathematician.

  • The Kronecker-Weber Theorem
    The Kronecker-Weber Theorem Summer School on Cyclotomic fields, Pune, June 7-30, 1999 Eknath Ghate 1 Introduction These are some brief notes on the famous Kronecker-Weber theorem, which says that cyclotomic extensions of Q capture all abelian extension of Q. Kronecker stated this theorem in 1853, but his proof was incomplete. Weber gave a proof in 1886, but apparently there was still a gap in it. Correct proofs were given soon after by Hilbert and Speiser. In these notes we shall derive the theorem as a consequence of the theo- rems of (global) class field theory. The main reference we use is Janusz’ book [1]. This is a good first introduction to class field theory - it derives most of the main theorems with minimal use of heavy machinery, and I recommend it to you for further study. If time permits, I will give another proof of the Kronecker-Weber theo- rem: namely the one given in Chapter 14 of Washington’s book [7]. In this approach, the theorem is deduced from the corresponding statement for lo- cal fields, which, in turn, is proved using only ‘elementary’ facts about the structure of local fields and their extensions. Since the exposition in Wash- ington is good, I will not reproduce this proof in these notes. A word of warning though: one needs to be fairly well acquainted with local fields to enjoy Washington’s proof. As an excellent background builder for this, and for many other things, I recommend reading Serre’s book [2]. 2 Cyclotomic extensions of Q Let us start by describing what cyclotomic fields, the objects of study of this summer school, look and smell like.

  • L-Functions and Non-Abelian Class Field Theory, from Artin to Langlands
    L-functions and non-abelian class field theory, from Artin to Langlands James W. Cogdell∗ Introduction Emil Artin spent the first 15 years of his career in Hamburg. Andr´eWeil charac- terized this period of Artin's career as a \love affair with the zeta function" [77]. Claude Chevalley, in his obituary of Artin [14], pointed out that Artin's use of zeta functions was to discover exact algebraic facts as opposed to estimates or approxi- mate evaluations. In particular, it seems clear to me that during this period Artin was quite interested in using the Artin L-functions as a tool for finding a non- abelian class field theory, expressed as the desire to extend results from relative abelian extensions to general extensions of number fields. Artin introduced his L-functions attached to characters of the Galois group in 1923 in hopes of developing a non-abelian class field theory. Instead, through them he was led to formulate and prove the Artin Reciprocity Law - the crowning achievement of abelian class field theory. But Artin never lost interest in pursuing a non-abelian class field theory. At the Princeton University Bicentennial Conference on the Problems of Mathematics held in 1946 \Artin stated that `My own belief is that we know it already, though no one will believe me { that whatever can be said about non-Abelian class field theory follows from what we know now, since it depends on the behavior of the broad field over the intermediate fields { and there are sufficiently many Abelian cases.' The critical thing is learning how to pass from a prime in an intermediate field to a prime in a large field.

  • Section 14.5. Today We Will Once Again Discuss Cyclotomic Fields And
    Section 14.5. Today we will once again discuss cyclotomic fields and figure out which regular n-gons can be constructed with straightedge and compass. a Theorem 1. Given a primitive n-th root of unity ζn, define σa 2 Gal(Q(ζn)=Q) by σa(ζn) = ζn. Then × (Z=nZ) ' Gal(Q(ζn)=Q); a 7−! σa: Proof. First of all, let us note that the map a 7! σa is a well-defined bijection. On one hand Q(ζn)=Q is a Galois extension of degree φ(n), on the other, an element σ 2 Gal(Q(ζn)=Q) is completely defined by σ(ζn) and has to permute roots of the cyclotomic polynomial Φn(x) a which are precisely fζng for (a; n) = 1. Therefore, σa defined above is indeed an element of Gal(Q(ζn)=Q), moreover it is clear that σa only depends on the class of a in Z=nZ. The fact that the map a 7! σa is a homomorphism (and hence an isomorphism) is a trivial exercise. Let us now focus on the case Q(ζp) for p a prime number. Then, 2 p−1 ζp; ζp ; : : : ; ζp are precisely the roots of the cyclotomic polynomial Φp(x), that is the primitive p-th roots of unity, and give a basis for Q(ζp) over Q. Note that any element of the Galois group Gal(Q(ζp)=Q) simply permutes these roots. Let now H ⊂ Gal(Q(ζp)=Q) be a subgroup, defining αH 2 Q(ζp) to be X αH = σ(ζp); σ2H one can express the fixed subfield of H as H Q(ζp) = Q(αH ): The latter statement is left as an exercise.
