integral element


An element a of a field K is an integral elementMathworldPlanetmath of the field K, iff

|a|1

for every non-archimedean valuation  ||  of this field.

The set 𝒪 of all integral elements of K is a subring (in fact, an integral domainMathworldPlanetmath) of K, because it is the intersection of all valuation ringsMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath in K.

Examples

  1. 1.

    K=.  The only non-archimedean valuations of are the p-adic valuationsMathworldPlanetmath||p  (where p is a rational prime) and the trivial valuation (all values are 1 except the value of 0).  The valuation ring 𝒪p of  ||p  consists of all so-called p-integral rational numbers whose denominators are not divisible by p.  The valuation ring of the trivial valuation is, generally, the whole field.  Thus, 𝒪 is, by definition, the intersection of the 𝒪p’s for all p;  this is the set of rationals whose denominators are not divisible by any prime, which is exactly the set of ordinary integers.

  2. 2.

    If K is a finite fieldMathworldPlanetmath, it has only the trivial valuation.  In fact, if || is a valuation and a any non-zero element of K, then there is a positive integer m such that  am=1,  and we have  |a|m=|am|=|1|=1,  and therefore  |a|=1.  Thus, || is trivial and  𝒪=K.  This means that all elements of the field are integral elements.

  3. 3.

    If K is the field p of the p-adic numbers (http://planetmath.org/NonIsomorphicCompletionsOfMathbbQ), it has only one non-trivial valuation, the p-adic valuation, and now the ring 𝒪 is its valuation ring, which is the ring of p-adic integers (http://planetmath.org/PAdicIntegers);  this is visualized in the 2-adic (dyadic) case in the article “p-adic canonical form”.
