Artin's Reciprocity Theorem


Artin's reciprocity theorem is a general reciprocity theorem that subsumes the previously known reciprocity theorems. If R is a number field and R^' a finite integral extension, then there is a surjection from the group of fractional ideals prime to the discriminant, given by the Artin symbol. For some cycle c, the kernel of this surjection contains each principal fractional ideal generated by an element congruent to 1 mod c.
