  2. Ramification (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramification_(mathematics)

    In a covering map the Euler–Poincaré characteristic should multiply by the number of sheets; ramification can therefore be detected by some dropping from that. The z → z n mapping shows this as a local pattern: if we exclude 0, looking at 0 < |z| < 1 say, we have (from the homotopy point of view) the circle mapped to itself by the n-th power map (Euler–Poincaré characteristic 0), but ...

    = / is tamely ramified (i.e., the ramification index is prime to the residue characteristic.) The study of ramification groups reduces to the ...

  4. Abhyankar's lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abhyankar's_lemma

    In mathematics, Abhyankar's lemma (named after Shreeram Shankar Abhyankar) allows one to kill tame ramification by taking an extension of a base field.. More precisely, Abhyankar's lemma states that if A, B, C are local fields such that A and B are finite extensions of C, with ramification indices a and b, and B is tamely ramified over C and b divides a, then the compositum AB is an unramified ...

  5. Different ideal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Different_ideal

    [11] [16] The precise exponent to which a ramified prime P divides δ is termed the differential exponent of P and is equal to e − 1 if P is tamely ramified: that is, when P does not divide e. [17] In the case when P is wildly ramified the differential exponent lies in the range e to e + eν P (e) − 1.

  7. Étale fundamental group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Étale_fundamental_group

    The tame fundamental group of some scheme U is a quotient of the usual fundamental group of which takes into account only covers that are tamely ramified along , where is some compactification and is the complement of in .

  8. Splitting of prime ideals in Galois extensions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Splitting_of_prime_ideals...

    There, given a Galois ramified cover, all but finitely many points have the same number of preimages. The splitting of primes in extensions that are not Galois may be studied by using a splitting field initially, i.e. a Galois extension that is somewhat larger. For example, cubic fields usually are 'regulated' by a degree 6 field containing them.

  9. Moy–Prasad filtration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moy–Prasad_filtration

    The technical assumption needed for the Moy–Prasad isomorphism to exist is that be tame, meaning that splits over a tamely ramified extension of the base field . If this assumption is violated then g x , r : s {\displaystyle {\mathfrak {g}}_{x,r:s}} and G ( k ) x , r : s {\displaystyle G(k)_{x,r:s}} are not necessarily isomorphic.
