TITLE: Subfield of a cyclotomic number field where a prime $p$ is inert
QUESTION [5 upvotes]: I am reading this paper by Adleman,Lenstra on finding Irreducible polynomial over Finite field.
Here in Section VI(Proof of correctness of Algo B) I came across this argument:
Let  $q_i $ be a prime such that $q_i-1$ is square free. Then $\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{q_i})$ contain a subfield $K$ such that $[K:\mathbb{Q}]=ord_{q_i}(p)$ and prime p is inert in $K$.
I am aware of following facts :

Cyclotomic polynomial splits in $\mathbb{F}_p$ as degree = $ord_{q_i}(p)$ irreducible factors.
Correspondence between splitting of ideal $ (p) $ in  $\mathbb{Q}(\zeta_{q_i})$ and factorization of $\Phi_{q_i}(x)$ in $\mathbb{F}_p$.
Since $ord_{q_i}(p) | q_i-1$, therefore there exist a field K' such that $[K':\mathbb{Q}]=ord_{q_i}(p)$.

But I am not sure of how these things give the claim given in the paper.

REPLY [3 votes]: The galois group of cyclotomic field over $\Bbb Q$ is cyclic hence it will always contain such a subfield $\Bbb K$ and inertness follows from the fact that $\gcd([\Bbb K:\Bbb Q],[\Bbb Q(\zeta):\Bbb K])=1$ as $q-1$ is square free.
