\subsection{Decomposition and ramification}

\begin{outline}
Let $p$ be a rational prime. Then $p \cO_k = p_1^{e_1} \ldots p_r^{e_r}$. Moreover note that $\cO_k /p_i$ is a finite field, so $n(p_i) = p_i^{f_i}$. If we now apply $n$ to the decomposition of $p\cO_k$, then we see that $p^d = p_1^{e_1 f_1}\ldots p_r^{e_r f_r}$, so $p_i=p$ for all $i$ and $e_1 f_1 + \ldots + e_r f_r = d$ (fundamental equation). We call $e_i$ ramification index of $p_i$ over $p$ and $f_i$ inertia degree.
Let $k$ be a number field of degree $d$ and $\fp$ a rational prime.
In $\mathcal{O}_k$, $\fp$ decomposes as $\mathcal{O}_k = \mathfrak{p}_1^{e_1} \cdots \mathfrak{p}_r^{e_r}$. Note that each $\mathcal{O}_k/\mathfrak{p}_i$ is a finite field, so if we let $f_i = [\mathcal{O}_k/\mathfrak{p}_i : \mathbb{F}\mathfrak{p}]$, then $n(\mathfrak{p}_i) = \mathfrak{p}^{f_i}$.
Applying $n$ to the decomposition of $\mathfrak{p}\mathcal{O}_k$, we get:
$\mathfrak{p}^d = \mathfrak{p}^{e_1f_1}\cdots\mathfrak{p}^{e_rf_r}$. Therefore $e_1f_1 + \cdots + e_rf_r = d$ (fundamental equation). We call $e_i$ the ramification index of $\mathfrak{p}_i$ over $p$ and $f_i$ the inertia degree of $\mathfrak{p}_i$ over $p$.

\1 Extreme cases: (all the prime ideals in $\cO_k$ lie over rational primes?)
\2 $r=d$: $p$ is split.
\2 $r=1, f_1 = 1$: $p$ ramifies completely.
\2 $r=1, e_1 = 1$: $p$ is inert.
\1 Extreme cases: for prime ideals in $\mathcal{O}_k$ over rational primes:
\2 $r=d$: $\fp$ is \textbf{split}.
\2 $r=1, f_1 = 1$: $\fp$ \textbf{ramifies completely}.
\2 $r=1, e_1 = 1$: $\fp$ is \textbf{inert}.

\0 Note: we say $p_i | p$ if and only if $p\cO_k \subseteq p_i$ for a unique rational prime $p$. \enquote{$p_i$ lies over $p$}.
\0 We say $p_i | p$ if and only if $p\cO_k \subseteq p_i$ for a unique rational prime $p$, and say "$\mathfrak{p}_i$ lies over $p$".

\0 \begin{definition}
$p$ is called ramified in $k$ if the corresponding ramification index $e_p >1$.\\
$p$ is called ramified in $k$ if $e_p > 1$ for some $p$ over $p$.
A rational prime $p$ is called ramified in $k$ if $e_p > 1$ for some prime ideal $\mathfrak{p}$ lying over $p$.
\end{definition}

\0 \begin{theorem}
A rational prime $p$ is ramified in $k$ iff $p | d_k$ (discriminant).
A rational prime $p$ is ramified in $k$ if and only if $p | d_k$ (where $d_k$ is the discriminant).
\end{theorem}

\0 \begin{theorem}
Almost all $p$ are unramified.
Only finitely many rational primes ramify in $k$.
\end{theorem}

\marginnote{Logically, everything now is ideals (except for maybe ramification).}

(Image). The Galois action permutes the primes over the rational primes. This action is transitive (exercise) and preserves $e_i$ and $f_i$, so the fundamental equation takes the form $d= e f r$. This is already interesting information, since if $k/\cQ$ is cyclic of prime degree, then on the left side we have a prime decomposed in three numbers, so only three of the above extreme cases can occur. This is the classical picture.
\1 The Galois group acts on prime ideals lying over rational primes. This action:
\2 Is transitive (exercise)
\2 Preserves ramification indices $e_i$ and inertia degrees $f_i$
\1[] Therefore, in the Galois case, the fundamental equation becomes: $d = efr$.
For cyclic extensions of prime degree over $\mathbb{Q}$, this constrains possible decomposition types to the three extreme cases listed above.
