Kato's conductor and generic residual perfection

Original · EN

Let A be a complete discrete valuation ring with possibly imperfect residue field, and let χ be a one-dimensional Galois representation over A. I show that the non-logarithmic variant of Kato's Swan conductor is the same for χ and the pullback of χ to the generic residual perfection of A. This implies the conductor from "Conductors and the moduli of residual perfection" (math.NT/0112305) extends the non-logarithmic variant of Kato's.
