A finite, coefficient-free cover of the finite prime ideals that can ramify in a subextension of a number field. The cover is constructed from rational primes dividing the absolute discriminant, and its size is bounded by the field degree times their number.
The finite set of prime ideals of 𝓞 K lying over the rational prime ideal (p).

The finite set of prime ideals of 𝓞 K lying over rational primes dividing the absolute
discriminant of K; it contains every nonzero prime that ramifies in some subextension.
Equations
Instances For
The discriminant prime-ideal cover has at most [K : ℚ] times the number of prime factors of
the absolute discriminant.
Discriminant descent in its exact extension-degree form.
For a quadratic extension K / F of number fields, |discr F| ^ 2 ≤ |discr K|.
Relative ramification index two forces the prime into the finite discriminant cover.
