Finite residue products for normalized cyclotomic pseudo-units #
This file extends the direct prime power-residue symbol to a total family of local symbols and then to nonzero fractional ideals. The total symbol is defined to be one at primes dividing its numerator or the rational prime `p`; away from those primes it is the direct finite-field symbol.
For a normalized pseudo-unit `η` with `(η) = B ^ p`, the resulting product is trivial on `(η)`. For a principal denominator `(a)` coprime to both `η` and the cyclotomic prime, the Kummer--Frobenius product is identified with the product having numerator `η`. Thus the integral Kummer target is reduced, by checked equivalences, to equality of the two oppositely oriented finite residue products. No equality of those products is assumed here.
A total prime-level power-residue symbol. At primes where the usual symbol is undefined because the numerator or `p` vanishes, its value is set to one.

Explicit finite-product formula for the total power-residue symbol.
Every total residue product has exponent dividing `p`.
Consequently the total residue product kills every `p`-th power of a nonzero fractional ideal.
If the principal ideal of `η` is a `p`-th power, every total residue product is trivial on `(η)`, independently of the numerator used in that product.
On an integral principal ideal coprime to both the normalized numerator and the cyclotomic prime, the Kummer--Frobenius product is the finite power-residue product with that normalized numerator.
For normalized data, the integral Kummer product target is equivalent
to equality of the two oppositely oriented finite residue products. The
reverse product is one because the principal ideal of the normalized
numerator is a p-th power; no reciprocity equality is asserted.
A pseudo-unit normalization packages the integral Kummer target as the remaining two-sided finite residue-product identity. In particular, this theorem records a checked reduction, not an assumption or a proof of that identity.
