Ramification at particular level of a tower of extensions of local field
Let $K$ be an unramified extension of the $p$-adic number field $\mathbb{Q}_p$.
Suppose we have a tower of extensions:
$$K=:K(u_0) \subset K(u_1) \subset K(u_2) \subset K(u_3) \subset \cdots \subset ...

Time complexity of Magma's `NormEquation` for quadratic extensions of $2$-adic fields
Note: This is similar to, but easier than, a previous question I asked here. It is a different question! I'm hoping this one might get an answer because it concerns a standard algorithm, whereas the ...

Computing preimage of element under norm map of quadratic extension of $2$-adic fields
Let $F$ be a $2$-adic field, i.e. a finite extension of the $2$-adic numbers $\mathbb{Q}_2$. Suppose that I have a quadratic extension $E = F(\sqrt{d})$ of $F$. Given a unit $\alpha \in \mathcal{O}_F^\...

Conductor and local Kronecker–Weber theorem
Given an abelian extension $K$ of $\mathbb{Q}$, the global Kronecker–Weber theorem tells us that there exist a positive integer $N$ and a primitive $N$-th root of unity $\zeta_N$ such that $K\subseteq ...

What is the quotient group $\mathfrak{q}^2/\mathfrak{p}^2 \mathbb{Z}_p$?
Let $p \geq 2$ be prime and $K=\mathbb{Q} (\zeta_p),~ \zeta^{p-1}=1$ with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$. We denote $\mathfrak{p} \mid p$ the prime ideal of $K$ dividing $p$. Let $K_{\mathfrak{p}}$ ...

Galois cohomology with coefficients in the integers of the Lubin-Tate extension
Let $K$ be a $p$-adic local field, and $L$ the Lubin-Tate extension obtained from $K$ by attaching roots of some Lubin-Tate formal $\mathcal{O}_{K}$-module with $Gal(L/K) \simeq \mathcal{O}_{K}^{\...

defining the upper ramification numbering
Given a local field $K$ with absolute Galois group $\Gamma$. Is it "possible" to define the upper numbering on $\Gamma$ without using the lower numbering?
In other words, given $\gamma \in \...

Decomposition of primes in cyclotomic extensions and their ramifications
Let $p$ be a prime. Suppose $L$ is a degree $p$ Galois extension over a number field $K$. Suppose $p$ splits both in $K$ and $L$.
So there will be $[K:\mathbb{Q}]$ primes of $K$ over $p$. Call them $...

Why does the field norm on the field extension $ \mathbb C/\mathbb R $ induce a vector space norm?
There is a general result which holds for the rational numbers $ \mathbb Q $ (as well as number fields in general):
For any completion $ K $ of $ \mathbb Q $ and any finite extension $ L/K $ of ...

Is $K^\times/ F^\times$ compact for local fields?
Let $K/F$ be a finite extension of local fields (of characteristic 0). Is it true that the quotient group $K^\times/ F^\times$ is always compact?
I understand that if the extension is cyclic, it is ...

Decomposition of $\widehat{k^{\times}}$ occuring in local class field theory
Let $k$ be a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ very often we use the isomorphism that $Gal(\overline{k}/k)^{ab} \simeq \hat{(k^{\times})}$ given by local class field theory.
My question would be do ...

Hilbert symbols vanishing
Let $p$ be an odd prime, and let $E/\mathbb{Q}_p$ be a finite extension that contains a primitive $p$-th root of unity $\zeta_p$ but not a primitve $p^2$-th root of unity $\zeta_{p^2}$. Let $a,b \in E^...

a question about a result in Bushnell-Henniart book 'the local Langlands conjecture for GL(2)'
This might be a easy question, but I couldn't get the point.
Let $F$ be a p-adic field, $\bar{F}$ a separable algebraic closure of $F$. Set $\Omega_F=Gal(\bar{F}/F)$. Use $F_{\infty}\subset \bar{F}$ ...
