Review text

Eisenstein's reciprocity law for \(p\)-th powers states that \((\alpha/a) = (a/\alpha)\) for the \(p\)-th power residue symbol, where \(a\) and \(\alpha\) are coprime to \(p\) and \(\alpha\) is semi-primary, i.e., congruent to an integer modulo \(p\). This reciprocity law was a necessary tool for proving higher reciprocity laws in the work of Kummer, Furtwängler and Takagi; Artin first managed to prove the general reciprocity law without using Eisenstein reciprocity. Immediately after Artin had proved his reciprocity law, \textit{H. Hasse} [Bericht über neuere Untersuchungen und Probleme aus der Theorie der algebraischen Zahlkörper. I: Klassenkörpertheorie. I a: Beweise zu Teil I. II: Reziprozitätsgesetz. Leipzig: B. G. Teubner (1930; JFM 56.0165.01)] showed how to derive Eisenstein's law from Artin's. In the present article, the author gives a simple proof of Eisenstein's reciprocity law for \(p\)-th powers using the reciprocity law for Hilbert symbols.
