Action of finite group of ring automorphisms












1












$begingroup$


Let $A$ be commutative ring and $G$ a finite group of ring automorphisms of $A$. We have a finite ring extension $A^G to A$ that induces a surjective map $phi: Spec(A) to Spec(A^G)$. I'd like to prove that given $a in A$ and $b_i in A^G$ such that $$t^n+sum_{i leq n} b_i t^i=prod_{sigma in G}(t-sigma(a)) ,$$ we have $phi(D(a))= cup D(b_i)$ where $D(f)$ is the canonical principal open subset.



I managed to prove one inclusion (namely $subset$) but I've got no idea for the other one.

    that looks a lot like an algebraic version of covering space theory, sadly I do not know enough elgebraic geometry to make this precise, but maybe a look on the corresponing proof in topology may help (I even think that the spec you are looking at is actually covering space!)

Take $A=mathbb{Z}$, $G=1$.



Then $5^3 = 125 = 3times 25 + 10 times 5 = 3times 5^2 + 10times 5$; $3,10in A^G$; but $D(5)neq D(3)cup D(10)$ (note that $phi = id$). So you need some more conditions for it to work, if it can work.



With the new condition : For $i=0$, $b_0 = displaystyleprod_{sigmain G}sigma(a)$, thus if $p$ is a prime ideal of $A^G$ and $phi(q) = p$, and $ain q$, then $b_0 in qcap A^G = p$, thus $pnotin D(b_0)$. Thus $pin D(b_0)implies qin D(a) implies pin D(phi(a))$.



More generally, if $G= {id=sigma_0, sigma_1,...,sigma_n}$ we have $b_i = displaystylesum_{i_0<...<i_l} prod_{k=0}^l sigma_{i_k}(a)$ for $l=n-i$. Thus if $p$ is prime in $A^G, p=qcap A^G$ with $q$ prime in $A$, and $b_inotin p$, then $b_inotin q$, so for some $i_0<...<i_l$, $displaystyleprod_{k=0}^l sigma_{i_k}(a)notin q$. Applying $g=sigma_{i_0}^{-1}$ to both sides we get in particular $anotin gcdot q$. But $phi(gcdot q) = phi(q) = p$, so $gcdot q in D(a)$ and $p=phi(gcdot q)in phi(D(a))$, thus $D(b_i)subset phi(D(a))$.



Thus $cup_i D(b_i)subset phi(D(a))$. The other inclusion is easy as you pointed out.

Probability when a professor distributes a quiz and homework assignment to a class of n students.

Image
0 0 $begingroup$ Need help with this problem. Suppose our lazy professor collects a quiz and a homework assignment from a class of n students one day, then distributes both the quizzes and the homework assignments back to the class in a random fashion for grading. Each student receives one quiz and one homework assignment to grade. (a) What is the probability that every student receives someone else's quiz to grade, and someone else's homework to grade? (b) What is the probability that no student receives both their own quiz and their own homework assignment to grade? In this case, some students may receive their own quiz, and others may receive their own homework assignment. (c) Compute the limiting probability as n approaches infinity in each case. ...
