5. Chebotarev: abelian case
The abelian case is reduced to the cyclotomic case by Chebotarev's original crossing trick. Source: Sharifi 7.2.2 Step 2 (pp. 143--144).
Let G, H be finite groups, \sigma \in G, \tau \in H. If
|G| \mid \operatorname{ord}(\tau), then
\langle (\sigma, \tau) \rangle \cap (G \times \{1\}) = \{1\}.

Sharifi 7.2.2 Step 2 sub-lemma (i) — cyclic subgroup trivial meet (p. 144). Source quote: "if `|G|` divides the order of `τ`, then `⟨(σ,τ)⟩ ∩ (G × {1}) = 1`". This is the only place where the `|G| | ord(τ)` hypothesis is used in Step 2.
Pure group theory. If (\sigma^k, \tau^k) \in G \times \{1\} then \tau^k = 1,
so \operatorname{ord}(\tau) \mid k, hence |G| \mid k, hence \sigma^k = 1.
Let L/K be a finite abelian Galois extension with G = \Gal{L/K},
\sigma \in G, and m \ge 1 coprime to the discriminant of L, so that
\Gal{L(\zeta_m)/K} \cong G \times H with
H = \Gal{K(\zeta_m)/K} \subseteq (\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z})^\times. Set
H_n = \{\tau \in H : |G| \mid \operatorname{ord}(\tau)\}. Then
\delta_{\inf}\bigl(\{\mathfrak{p} \subset \mathcal{O}_K : \sigma_\mathfrak{p} = \sigma\}\bigr) \;\ge\; \frac{|H_n|}{|G| \cdot |H|}.
Corrected. An earlier draft of this lemma claimed
\delta\bigl(\{\mathfrak{p} : \sigma_\mathfrak{p} = \sigma\}\bigr) = 1/(|G| \cdot |H|)
— that is mathematically wrong (the set
\{\sigma_\mathfrak{p} = \sigma\} has density 1/|G|, not 1/(|G| \cdot |H|)).
The actual per-m step that feeds into the proof of
\delta(\sigma_\mathfrak{p} = \sigma) = 1/|G| is the \liminf lower bound above
(Sharifi p. 144).

Sharifi 7.2.2 Step 2 — partial **lower bound** on `δ_inf(S_σ)` coming from one cyclotomic crossing modulus `m`: `|H_n(m)|/(|G|·|H(m)|)` bounds the `liminf` of the density ratio for `S_σ` in `K`. Source quote (p. 144): "δ_inf(S_σ) ≥ |H_n|/(|G|·|H|)". The crossing is only valid at *admissible* `m`, so this per-`m` bound carries the same two hypotheses as `exists_cyclotomicCrossing_fibres`: `hm4 : m % 4 ≠ 2` (feeding the cyclotomic case) and `hcop : ((NumberField.discr L).natAbs).Coprime m` (the linear-disjointness via the everywhere-unramified intersection / `discr_dvd_discr`). The consumer `liminf_ratio_ge_inv_card_G` drives `m` along admissible primes.
By Lemma 5.1, the fixed field
F = L(\zeta_m)^{\langle (\sigma, \tau) \rangle} satisfies
F(\zeta_m) = L(\zeta_m), so the extension L(\zeta_m)/F is cyclotomic. Apply
the cyclotomic case Theorem 4.8 to L(\zeta_m)/F to
obtain \delta_F = 1/|\langle (\sigma, \tau) \rangle|. The conjugacy-class
reduction (Theorem 6.3 below, Step 1's counting) lifts this to
a K-density of 1/(|G| \cdot |H|).
Let n = p_1^{k_1} \cdots p_r^{k_r} with p_i distinct primes, k_i \ge 1. For
an integer m \ge 1 with m \equiv 1 \pmod{n^j}, setting
j_i = v_{p_i}(m-1) \ge j and
H_n = \{\tau \in (\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z})^\times : n \mid \operatorname{ord}(\tau)\},
\frac{|H_n|}{|(\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z})^\times|} \;=\; \prod_{i=1}^r \biggl(1 - \frac{p_i^{k_i - 1}}{p_i^{j_i k_i}}\biggr) \;\ge\; \prod_{i=1}^r \biggl(1 - \frac{1}{p_i^{(j-1)k_i + 1}}\biggr).
Direct combinatorial computation on (\mathbb{Z}/m\mathbb{Z})^\times using CRT and
the prime-power factorisation of n (Sharifi p. 144).
As k \to \infty, |H_n|/|(\mathbb{Z}/n^k\mathbb{Z})^\times| \to 1.

The density ratios of the `|G|` Frobenius-fibres `S_σ` (over `σ ∈ Gal(L/K)`) sum to the ratio for the unramified primes, which tends to `1` as `s ↓ 1` since the ramified primes are finite (`finite_ramifiedIn`, density `0`). Sharifi 7.2.2 Step 2: the `S_σ` partition the unramified primes.

\liminf_{s \downarrow 1} g_i \ge 1/N for each i, and \sum_i g_i(s) \to 1 as

Pure real-analysis glue: a finite family `gᵢ` of functions, each with `liminf gᵢ ≥ 1/N` (where `N` is the family size) and bounded below, whose sum tends to `1`, must each tend to `1/N`. (The lower bounds and the sum-limit pin every `gᵢ` to `1/N` by a pigeonhole on `liminf`/`limsup`.) The below-boundedness hypothesis `hbelow` is genuinely needed: a finite `liminf` lower bound alone does not force below-boundedness in a conditionally complete order, so without it the statement is false (one `gᵢ` could dip to `-∞` while keeping a spurious `liminf` and the sum still converging). At the only call site (`chebotarev_abelian`) each `gᵢ` is a ratio of nonnegative Dirichlet sums, hence `0 ≤ gᵢ`, so `hbelow` is immediate.

**Chebotarev's theorem, abelian case** (Sharifi 7.2.2 Step 2). For an abelian Galois extension `L/K` of number fields and any `σ ∈ Gal(L/K)`, the Dirichlet density of primes `𝔭` of `𝓞 K` unramified in `L` whose Frobenius equals `σ` is `1 / |Gal(L/K)|`. **Composition**: the `|G|` fibres `S_σ` each have `liminf ≥ 1/|G|` (`liminf_ratio_ge_inv_card_G`) and their density ratios sum to `1` (`ratioSum_frobeniusFibres_tendsto_one`); the pigeonhole glue `tendsto_inv_card_of_liminf_ge_of_sum_tendsto_one` forces each to the limit `1/|G|`.
