Higher reciprocity law and An analogue of the Grunwald--Wang theorem for the ring of polynomials over an ultra-finite field

Abstract

In this paper, we establish an explicit higher reciprocity law for the polynomial ring over a nonprincipal ultraproduct of finite fields. Such an ultraproduct can be taken over the same finite field, which allows to recover the classical higher reciprocity law for the polynomial ring $\mathbb{F}_q[t]$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ that is due to Dedekind, K\"uhne, Artin, and Schmidt. On the other hand, when the ultraproduct is taken over finite fields of unbounded cardinalities, we obtain an explicit higher reciprocity law for the polynomial ring over an infinite field in both characteristics $0$ and $p >0$ for some prime $p$. We then use the higher reciprocity law to prove an analogue of the Grunwald--Wang theorem for such a polynomial ring in both characteristics $0$ and $p > 0$ for some prime $p$.
