INTER-UNIVERSAL TEICHMÜLLER THEORY I 87<br />
(b) an isomorphism, or identification, between v [i.e., a prime <strong>of</strong> F ]and<br />
v ′ [i.e., a prime <strong>of</strong> K] which [manifestly — cf., e.g., [NSW], Theorem<br />
12.2.5] fails to extend to an isomorphism between the respective prime<br />
decomposition trees over v and v ′ .<br />
If one thinks <strong>of</strong> the relation “∈” between sets in axiomatic set theory as determining<br />
a “tree”, then<br />
the point <strong>of</strong> view <strong>of</strong> (b) is reminiscent <strong>of</strong> the point <strong>of</strong> view <strong>of</strong> [IUTchIV], §3,<br />
where one is concerned with constructing some sort <strong>of</strong> artificial solution to<br />
the “membership equation a ∈ a” [cf. the discussion <strong>of</strong> [IUTchIV], Remark<br />
3.3.1, (i)].<br />
The third point <strong>of</strong> view consists <strong>of</strong> the observation that although the “arithmetic<br />
local-analytic sections” constituted by the D-prime-strips involve isomorphisms <strong>of</strong><br />
the various local absolute Galois groups,<br />
(c) these isomorphisms <strong>of</strong> local absolute Galois groups fail to extend to a<br />
section <strong>of</strong> global absolute Galois groups G F ↠ G K [i.e., a section <strong>of</strong> the<br />
natural inclusion G K ↩→ G F ].<br />
Here, we note that in fact, by the Neukirch-Uchida theorem [cf. [NSW], Chapter<br />
XII, §2], one may think <strong>of</strong> (a) and (c) as essentially equivalent. Moreover, (b) is<br />
closely related to this equivalence, in the sense that the pro<strong>of</strong> [cf., e.g., [NSW],<br />
Chapter XII, §2] <strong>of</strong> the Neukirch-Uchida theorem depends in an essential fashion<br />
on a careful analysis <strong>of</strong> the prime decomposition trees <strong>of</strong> the number fields involved.<br />
(iii) In some sense, understanding more precisely the content <strong>of</strong> the failure <strong>of</strong><br />
these “arithmetic local-analytic sections” constituted by the D-prime-strips to be<br />
“arithmetically holomorphic” is a central theme <strong>of</strong> the theory <strong>of</strong> the present series<br />
<strong>of</strong> papers — a theme which is very much in line with the spirit <strong>of</strong> classical complex<br />
Teichmüller theory.<br />
Remark 4.3.2. The incompatibility <strong>of</strong> the “arithmetic local-analytic sections” <strong>of</strong><br />
Remark 4.3.1, (i), with global prime distributions and global absolute Galois groups<br />
[cf. the discussion <strong>of</strong> Remark 4.3.1, (ii)] is precisely the technical obstacle that<br />
will necessitate the application — in [IUTchIII] — <strong>of</strong> the absolute p-adic monoanabelian<br />
geometry developed in [AbsTopIII], in the form <strong>of</strong> “panalocalization along<br />
the various prime-strips” [cf. [IUTchIII] for more details]. Indeed,<br />
the mono-anabelian theory developed in [AbsTopIII] represents the culmination<br />
<strong>of</strong> earlier research <strong>of</strong> the author during the years 2000 to 2007<br />
concerning absolute p-adic anabelian geometry — research that was<br />
motivated precisely by the goal <strong>of</strong> developing a geometry that would allow<br />
one to work with the “arithmetic local-analytic sections” constituted by<br />
the prime-strips, so as to overcome the principal technical obstruction to<br />
applying the <strong>Hodge</strong>-Arakelov theory <strong>of</strong> [HASurI], [HASurII] [cf. Remark<br />
4.3.1, (i)].
