Admissible absolute values #
This file defines a structure AbsoluteValue.IsAdmissible which we use to show the class number
of the ring of integers of a global field is finite.
Main definitions #
AbsoluteValue.IsAdmissible abvstates the absolute valueabv : R → ℤrespects the Euclidean domain structure onR, and that a large enough set of elements ofR^ncontains a pair of elements whose remainders are pointwise close together.

An absolute value R → ℤ is admissible if it respects the Euclidean domain
structure and a large enough set of elements in R^n will contain a pair of
elements whose remainders are pointwise close together.
The cardinality required for a given
ε.
Instances For
For all ε > 0 and finite families A, we can partition the remainders of A mod b
into abv.card ε sets, such that all elements in each part of remainders are close together.
Any large enough family of vectors in R^n has a pair of elements
whose remainders are close together, pointwise.
Any large enough family of vectors in R^ι has a pair of elements
whose remainders are close together, pointwise.
