orders in a number field


If  μ1,,μm  are elements of an algebraic number fieldMathworldPlanetmath K, then the subset

M={n1μ1++nmμmKnii}

of K is a -module, called a module in K.  If the module contains as many over linearly independentMathworldPlanetmath elements as is the degree (http://planetmath.org/NumberField) of K over , then the module is complete.

If a complete module in K the unity 1 of K and is a ring, it is called an order (in German: Ordnung) in the field K.

A number α of the algebraic number field K is called a coefficient of the module M, if  αMM.

Theorem 1.  The set M of all coefficients of a complete module M is an order in the field.  Conversely, every order in the number field K is a coefficient ring of some module.

Theorem 2.  If α belongs to an order in the field, then the coefficients of the characteristic equationMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath (http://planetmath.org/CharacteristicEquation) of α and thus the coefficients of the minimal polynomialPlanetmathPlanetmath of α are rational integers.

Theorem 2 means that any order is contained in the ring of integersMathworldPlanetmath of the algebraic number field K.  Thus this ring 𝒪K, being itself an order, is the greatest order; 𝒪K is called the maximal order or the principal order (in German: Hauptordnung).  The set of the orders is partially ordered by the set inclusion.

Example.  In the field (2), the coefficient ring of the module M generated by 2 and 22 is the module M generated by 1 and 22.  The maximal order of the field is generated by 1 and 2.
