5-adic order of $zeta-f(overline 2)zeta^2+f(overline 2)zeta^3+zeta^4$
$begingroup$
Let $pi:$(the 5-adic integers)$to mathbb{Z}/5mathbb{Z}$ be the reduction map.
Let $f:mathbb{Z}/5 mathbb{Z} to $ (the 5-adic integers) have the following properties $forall x,yin mathbb{Z}/5mathbb{Z}$
$f(x)f(y)=f(xy)$
$f(x)^{p-1}=1$ unless $f(x)=0$
$pi(f(x))=x$
Also, let us adjoin a primitive $5$th root of unity, call it $zeta_5=zeta$, to the 5-adic integers.
I want to find the 5-adic order of $zeta-f(overline 2)zeta^2+f(overline 2)zeta^3+zeta^4$
I see that the order of $1-zeta^i$ is $frac 1 4$ for $inotequiv0$ (mod 5).
I also see that $f(overline 4)=-1$ and that therefore $f(overline 2)^2=-1$ and $f(overline 3)^2=-1$. Perhaps this can be used to rewrite the sum $zeta-f(overline 2)zeta^2+f(overline 2)zeta^3+zeta^4$ in a "better" way.

I would certainly write $f(overline 2)$ as good-old $i$, square root of $-1$. Then your expression is $zeta+i^3zeta^2+izeta^3 +zeta^4$.

@Lubin Certainly makes notation a lot easier to work with. Thanks for the idea. I feel like multiplying by some $i^aζ^b$ term would help.

Using a symbolic algebra package, I seem to find that your number is a unit in its ring. Does that seem right, or wrong to you?

Then I suggest defining $sigma$ in the Galois group over $Bbb Q_5$, $sigma(zeta)=zeta^2$, it’s a generator, and taking the Norm of your element, which just means replacing $zeta$ by $zeta^2$, $zeta^3$, and $zeta^4$ in your expression, and multiplying all four four-term factors together. You’ll probably get a lot of collapsing, to make the result obvious. (I’m displaying my ignorance of group-representation theory here, of course. To those who are not so ignorant, your result is probably obvious.)
