Characters of a quadratic extension and convergence

Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field, $\chi$ a quasi-character of $F^\star$ and $\psi$ a positive character of $E^\star$. I would like to understand why the usual Rankin-Selberg zeta integrals ...

Normgroup and the image of the Hilbert symbol are subgroups of index 2 in the principal units

Let $K$ be a local field over $\mathbb{Q}_2$ such that the extension $K(i)/K$ is ramified and let $U^1_{K(i)}$ and $U^1_K$ denote the groups of principal units in the fields $K(i)$ and $K$, ...

Relation between 1-dimensional and 2-dimensional reciprocity maps

Let $M/L/\mathbb{Q}_p$ be a finite galois abelian extension of local fields and define $\mathcal{M}=M\{\{T\}\}=\{\sum_{i\in \mathcal{Z}}a_iT^i : a_i\in M, \min_{i\in \mathcal{Z}} v(a_i)>-\infty, \...

Valuations in Higher-dimensional local fields

I have the following question which I believ should be true but I would like to have a different opinion about it: Let $M/L$ is a finite Galois extension of $n$-dimensional local fields and $t_1,\...

is a linear algebraic group over an extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ a locally pro finite group?

Let $F$ be a non archimedean local field and let $G$ be linear algebraic group over $F$. I do not have a lot of experience with linear algebraic group, but it seems very obvious that $G$ inherits the ...

Existence of maximal totally ramified subextension

Suppose $K/\mathbb Q_p$ is a finite extension, with ramification index $e$ and inertia index $f$. I want to ask whether there exists a subextension $L/\mathbb Q_p$ totally ramified of degree $e$?

Why $k((x,t))$ can not be a local field?

If $k$ is a finite field, then $k((x))$ is a local field, and we can define a discrete valuation on $k((x))$ with respect to which it is complete. It is sometimes called a 1-dimensional local field. I ...

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 $K_{\mathfrak{p}}$ ...

Local field such that the value group of $K^\text{perf}$ ( perfect closure of $K$) is $\bigcup_{n\geqq1}(1/p^n) \Bbb{Z}$

Let $K$ be a local field of positive characteristic. I'm looking for a $K$ which satisfies the following condition. Value group of $K^\text{perf}$ (perfect closure of $K$) is $\bigcup_{n\geqq1}(1/p^n)...

Splitting of simply connected algebraic group

Let $k$ be a number field and let $G$ be a connected semisimple, simply connected algebraic group defined over $k$. Let $k'$ be a finite Galois extension over which $G$ splits. By the Chebotarev ...
