Idelic modulus 2026-10-06
The idelic modulus is the product of normalized local moduli: ordinary real modulus, squared complex modulus and at finite places. This continuous homomorphism to has the diagonal multiplicative group in its kernel by the product formula. It differs from the idele norm, which maps between idele groups of field extensions.
The idele norm has -component
For the principal idele associated with , compatibility of local and global field norms gives
The right side is the principal idele of the element .
