Main Theorem of Global Class Field Theory #
We state the main theorem of global class field theory for number fields.
Given a number field K
, denote by G_K_ab
the topological abelianization of its absolute Galois
group. The main theorem of global class field theory states that G_K_ab
is isomorphic to the
quotient C_K_1
of the idèle class group of K
by its identity component, as topological groups.

The first part of the theorem is the claim that G_K_ab
is isomorphic to C_K_1
as groups.

.
The second part claims that the above isomorphism of abstract groups is also a homeomorphism, and hence it is an isomorphism of topological groups.
