The global Wronskian divisor and the finite different degree #
This module supplies two exact global pieces of the Corvaja--Zannier
Wronskian argument for a finite separable extension of K(X).
First, a global derivation gives one global Wronskian element. Replacing it at a place by a local-parameter derivation changes the order by exactly the triangular multiple of the change-of-parameter coefficient. Accordingly, the local Wronskians form the sum of the principal divisor of the global Wronskian and a triangular multiple of a canonical correction divisor. The product formula then proves that its degree is exactly the triangular multiple of the canonical degree.
Second, for an integral primitive element in the finite integral closure, the weighted degree of the finite different is bounded by the degree of its power-basis discriminant. This is obtained without an abstract norm-of-ideal interface: ideal multiplicities are identified with finite-place orders, and the existing exhaustive norm formula evaluates their weighted sum.
What is deliberately not asserted here is a Riemann--Hurwitz theorem, an
identification of the correction divisor at the places above infinity, or a
plane-curve genus/boundary estimate. Those are the remaining geometric
inputs needed to derive the final bound canonicalDegree + |S| <= 2ab.

The finite different and the discriminant degree #
The weighted degree of the principal ideal of an integral element is the
finite-place degree sum of that element in the exhaustive K(X) model.
The finite different degree is bounded by the finite degree of the minimal-polynomial derivative of an integral primitive element.
The finite degree of the integral minimal-polynomial derivative is exactly the rational-function degree of the associated power-basis discriminant.
The finite different degree is bounded by the power-basis discriminant degree of any integral primitive element.
The local-parameter Wronskian divisor #
The global ordinary Wronskian attached to one derivation.
Equations
Instances For
Exact order change from a global derivation to a local-parameter
derivation. If D = a E, then the local E-Wronskian has the global
D-Wronskian order minus choose(n,2) times the order of a.

The divisor represented by local-parameter Wronskians: the principal divisor of the global Wronskian plus the triangular multiple of a supplied canonical correction divisor.
Equations

Instances For
The product formula kills the principal global Wronskian contribution. Thus the local Wronskian divisor has exactly the triangular multiple of the canonical degree.
Over algebraically closed constants every place has degree one, so the global canonical identity becomes the ordinary unweighted sum of local Wronskian orders used by Corvaja--Zannier.
Final log-canonical arithmetic #
Once geometry bounds the canonical degree with the coarse boundary
allowance 2(a+b), and the actual exceptional set has at most that many
points, the exact Corvaja--Zannier choice chi = 2ab follows.
The usual genus and toric-boundary estimates imply the exact log-canonical allowance used by Corvaja--Zannier. This theorem is purely the numerical assembly: constructing a normalization and proving the two supplied geometric estimates remain separate obligations.
The divisor-theoretic replacement for the genus-bound assembly. If the
canonical correction is bounded by the total different minus twice the
projection degree, the sharp bivariate discriminant budget and the toric
boundary budget give the same log-canonical bound 2 * a * b directly.
