Hensel's Lemma/P-adic Integers/Lemma 9

Theorem
Let $\Z_p$ be the $p$-adic integers for some prime $p$.

Let $\map F X \in \Z_p \sqbrk X$ be a polynomial.

Let $\map {F'} X$ be the (formal) derivative of $F$.

Let $\alpha_0 \in \Z_p$ be a $p$-adic integer:
 * $\map F {\alpha_0} \equiv 0 \pmod {p\Z_p}$
 * $\map {F'} {\alpha_0} \not\equiv 0 \pmod {p\Z_p}$

Let $T$ be the set of $p$-adic digits.

For each $k \in \N_{>0}$, let:
 * $S_k = \set{\tuple{b_0, b_1, \ldots, b_{k-1}} \subseteq T^k : \map F {\ds \sum_{n = 0}^{k-1} b_n p^n} \equiv 0 \pmod{p^k\Z_p} \quad \text{and} \quad \ds \sum_{n = 0}^{k-1} b_n p^n \equiv \alpha_0 \pmod{p\Z_p}}$

Let:
 * $\tuple{b_0, b_1, \ldots, b_{k-1}} \in S_k$.

Then:
 * $\paren{c, d \in T : \tuple{b_0, b_1, \ldots, b_{k-1}, c}, \tuple{b_0, b_1, \ldots, b_{k-1}, d} \in S_{k+1}} \implies c = d$

Lemma 11
Let:
 * $c, d \in T : \tuple{b_0, b_1, \ldots, b_{k-1}, c}, \tuple{b_0, b_1, \ldots, b_{k-1}, d} \in S_{k+1}$

Let:
 * $a = \ds \sum_{n = 0}^{k-1} b_n p^n$

We have:

From Lemma 7:
 * $\exists b \in T : \map {F'} a \equiv b \pmod{p\Z_p}$

We have:

We have:

The result follows.
