How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

Frobenius order is residue degree

Statement

For finite Galois L/K and nonzero Pp, the arithmetic Frobenius coset has order f(P/p) in D/I. If P is unramified, FrobP has the same order in D.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The data and hypotheses of the statement.

[F1]

Arithmetic frobenius coset: For finite Galois L/K and nonzero Pp, the arithmetic Frobenius coset is the unique element of D(P/p)/I(P/p) corresponding under the residue isomorphism to xxNp on κ(P), where Np=κ(p). It is defined also when P is ramified. Its inverse is called geometric Frobenius. The quotient element is distinguished; a representative in D need not be unique.

[F2]

Unramified frobenius element exists uniquely: For finite Galois L/K and a nonzero prime Pp with e(P/p)=1, there is a unique FrobPD(P/p) satisfying FrobP(a)aNp(modP)(aOL). It is the arithmetic Frobenius element, the unique lift of the arithmetic Frobenius coset.

[F3]

A finite extension of a finite field of order q is Galois with cyclic Galois group generated by xxq: Let Fq be a finite field of order q and let E be a finite field having Fq as a subfield, with [E:Fq]=n (def-extension-degree-and-finite-extension). Then E/Fq is a finite Galois extension (def-finite-galois-extension-and-galois-group) and Gal(E/Fq)=σq is cyclic of order n, generated by the relative Frobenius σq ⁣:xxq (def-relative-frobenius-of-a-finite-field-extension).

Proof

1.1

The isomorphism defining the coset carries it to the Np-power automorphism of κ(P)/κ(p). That automorphism has order [κ(P):κ(p)]=f(P/p), and an isomorphism preserves the order of every element.

2.1

In the unramified case the lift is through the isomorphism DD/I, so its order is also f. When f=1 the coset, and its unramified lift, are identities.
