Abstract
In this paper, we establish an explicit algebra isomorphism between the normalized -adic arithmetic gamma values and their -adic counterparts. The construction relies on Thakur's arithmetic Gauss sums, which arise naturally from the Gross-Koblitz-Thakur relations. Our result demonstrates the phenomenon that Gauss sums, commonly regarded as "finite" analogs of gamma functions, serve as a bridge connecting the -adic and -adic gamma values.

01Statements2 reported findingsNo statement issues found
The stated algebra isomorphism between the normalized infinity-adic and finite-place arithmetic gamma-value algebras has the advertised domain, generators, and Gauss-sum multiplier. The finite-level formulation and its extension by the translation relations are consistent. No mathematical statement requiring correction was found.
The generator assignment defines the claimed algebra isomorphism

At level , both normalized value algebras have transcendence basis indexed by . The strong-multiplication and Gross–Koblitz relations give the same binomial presentation on the two sides, while the cited algebraic-independence results show that this presentation has no additional kernel. Identifying the two quotient presentations therefore sends to , and the translation relations extend the map from a fundamental interval to every permitted rational argument.
The normalized values satisfy matching monomial relations
PDF pages 12–14 · Section 3.2 · arXiv:2610.26398v1
The normalization exponents transform under translation and carry-free base- multiplication exactly as required. Thakur's formula cancels the finite-place gamma factor with the arithmetic Gauss sum on the basic generators, yielding the same Gross–Koblitz product relation as on the infinity-adic side.
02Proofs2 reported findingsNo proof issues found
The proof reduces the problem to identical distribution-relation presentations and verifies the necessary translation, multiplication, and Gross–Koblitz relations before invoking the stated transcendence inputs. The rank computations, basis choices, localization at monomials, and final extension are coherent. No incorrect or materially incomplete proof was found.
The two distribution groups have the required common rank
PDF pages 16–17 · Propositions 3.3.4 and 3.3.7 · arXiv:2610.26398v1
After the strong-multiplication relations reduce to the digit generators, the normalization differences give an independent family of size on the infinity-adic side. On the finite-place side, the independent Gross–Koblitz orbit sums eliminate precisely the first generators. Tensoring with supplies the rank bound, and the exhibited generators then give the asserted free bases.
The quotient-ring comparison has no hidden kernel
PDF pages 17–18 · Proof of Theorem 2.3.4 · arXiv:2610.26398v1
Each evaluation factors through the same binomial ideal. The algebraically independent basis values identify the localized quotient with a Laurent polynomial algebra in variables, which makes both evaluation maps injective as well as surjective. Composing them gives the desired isomorphism, and Proposition 3.2.1 propagates it to all translates.
