Coprime integral representatives of cyclotomic pseudo-units #
This file proves the denominator-dependent normalization step used in a one-sided Kummer reciprocity argument. Its ideal-theoretic input is the standard Dedekind-domain fact that an ideal class has an integral representative coprime to any prescribed nonzero proper ideal.
The proof is internal to Mathlib's Dedekind-domain API. If J is an
integral representative of the inverse class and F is the prescribed
ideal, IsDedekindDomain.exists_sup_span_eq supplies x with
J * F + (x) = J. Cancelling J shows that (x) * J⁻¹ is both
integral and coprime to F.
A nonzero fractional ideal can be rescaled by a field unit to an integral ideal coprime to any prescribed nonzero proper ideal.
A pseudo-unit radicand can be changed by a p-th power so that it is
integral and its principal ideal is simultaneously coprime to a prescribed
nonzero denominator ideal and to the cyclotomic prime.
