I am currently reading " A Classic Introduction to Modern Number Theory " by Kenneth Ireland and Michael Rosen. In the 11th chapter they consider the zeta function. In the third section of this chapter they want to show that the Zeta Function is associated to $a_0x_0^m+a_1x_1^m+...+a_nx_n^m$. And I have a lot of questions to this chapter. In this question I will start with an easy question. Let us start with:

My question : So I don't understand (a) and (b). Like you can see we need Proposition 11.2.2. So here:



enter image description hereenter image description here



Like I said: can you proof (a) and (b)? ( not the (a) and (b) from the Proposition. I mean the (a) and (b) of the first picture. ) It is not clear to me. I solved (c) by my own, I think:



$ chi^{'}(a) = chi(N_{F_s/F}(a)) = chi(a^s * N_{F_s/F}(1)) = chi(a^s) = (chi(a))^s $ I used Proposition 11.2.2 (c) for the second equation.



So if you need more information let me know.

  • For $F = mathbf{F}_q,E= mathbf{F}_{q^s}$ then $N_{E/F}(a) =prod_{l=1}^s a^{q^l}= a^{(q^s-1)/(q-1)} $ is a root of $y^q-y$ so is in $F$

  • Then for $m | q-1$ pick some $g in F^times$ of order $q-1$. Then $chi(0) = 0,chi(g^n) = e^{2i pi n /m}$ is a character of order $m$ and for $gcd(s,m)=1$, $chi_E(a) = chi(N_{E/F}(a))$ is a character of order $m$ of $E^times$ and $exists b in E^times, a = b^m$ iff $chi_E(a) = 1$ iff $sum_{l=1}^m chi(a)^l = m$, the last sum being over the characters of order $| m $.

  • Pardon. Am I wrong or do you proof some parts of Proposition 11.2.2? My question was (a) $chi neq rho $ implies $chi^{'} neq rho^{'} $ and (b) $chi^m = varepsilon$ implies $chi^{'m} = varepsilon$. If I misunderstood something, I'm sorry.
