I am interested in getting the original information regarding Dedekind's idea of the "different" (regarding ideals). Particularly, I am interested in:
1- Knowing the original German name he used for it. I think it was "diskriminant", but I am not sure. 2-Getting his original definition (It would be great if the page could be scanned and bibliographic reference could be given).
Thanks."
