R0053-27454 · q-20261015-advance-20261118-r05-p-adic-valuation-integers-0029

Original question and givens

Use prime p=7, integers a=4, b=-35, with v_p(0)=infinity. Give (p, a, b, valuation_a, valuation_b, product, valuation_product, sum_of_valuations, additivity, infinity_convention).

  • G001 — Use prime p=7, integers a=4, b=-35, with v_p(0)=infinity. Give (p, a, b, valuation_a, valuation_b, product, valuation_product, sum_of_valuations, additivity, infinity_convention).

Definition and scope

Use the original question domain, assumptions and cited MKO definitions. This item has second-context mathematical and bilingual review, with the model, answer and every arithmetic step independently recomputed from the original parameters; the source question remains a candidate.

Step-by-step derivation

S001 · implies

Before

source roles = [pval-product-additivity]

After

derived = [[p, a, b, valuation_a, valuation_b, product, valuation_product, sum_of_valuations, additivity, infinity_convention]]

Conditions: none

List the complete source field order and mode-specific roles without JavaScript or answer-shape inference;No,undefined and infinity retain their distinct meanings.

Rule: source_ordered_fields_without_JS · Uses: G001

S002 · calculation

Before

Valuation ORIGINAL a terminal factorization product := mul(1, 4)

After

Valuation ORIGINAL a terminal factorization product = 4

Conditions: none

Substitute original roles and established intermediates exactly;no approximation,slot substitution or internally consistent changed operand.

Step identifiers and dependencies

Rule: exact_rational_arithmetic · Uses: G001, S001

S003 · implies

Before

source roles = [Valuation ORIGINAL a, 7, 4, 4, 0, 4, []]

After

derived = [4, 4, Yes, Yes]

Conditions: none

At termination p does not divide the unit,so p^(k+1) does not divide |a| and k is maximal.A sign does not affect divisibility;the factorization is for |a|,not negative a equalling a positive product.

Conditions: none

Divide only when the current unit is divisible by p.Each step preserves |a|=p^k*unit and strictly decreases the positive unit,so it terminates.Derived integers do not inherit the raw-input1e6 cap.

derived = [-140, 1, 1, Yes]

Conditions: none

For nonzero factors write a=±p^r*u,b=±p^s*v.Primality and Euclid lemma keep uv indivisible by p,so the exact exponent is r+s.If either factor is0,the product is0 and the same infinity convention applies.A derived product may reach1e12 while remaining SAFE;do not reapply the raw1e6 bound.
