Eisenstein generator of a totally ramified extension (source code)

= Eisenstein generator of a totally ramified extension
{c}

A finite extension $L/K$ of complete discretely valued fields is totally ramified exactly when $L=K(\alpha)$ for a root $\alpha$ of an <Eisenstein polynomial> over $\mathcal O_K$. In the reverse direction one may take $\alpha$ to be any <uniformizer> of $L$.
