Explicit $H^2(K, \mu) = Q/Z$?

In the development of local class field theory, a very fundamental theorem is that, for every local field $K$ of characteristic zero, $H^2(K, \mu) \cong \mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z}$. $(*)$ Neukirch et al. ...

The Tate-Nakayama theorem and inflation

Let $K$ be a nonarchimedean local field, and $L/K$ be a finite Galois extension with Galois group $G={\rm Gal}(L/K)$ of order $n=[L:K]$. By local class field theory, there is a canonical isomorphism $$...

Essence of relations between central simple algebras and Galois cohomology in canonical morphism of class field theory

I was somewhat puzzled after I finished learning class field theory for several times. My question is about the relations between "classical simple algebras, Brauer groups" and "modern ...

Problem understanding the cup-products for the modified cohomology in David Harari's book "Galois Cohomology and Class Field Theory"

I'm recently reading the very beginning of David Harari's book Galois Cohomology and Class Field Theory, and I met a problem with the definition of cup-products for the modified cohomology. Before ...

Cohomology of local fields in positive characteristic

It is well-known from local class field theory that the Brauer group $\text{Br}(k)$ of a local field $k$ gets killed as you pass to sufficiently large extensions of $k$. In particular, $\text{Br}(L)(p)...

Finiteness for Galois cohomology for $\mathbb{Z}_p$-module coefficients

I am looking for a general survey on the finite generation properties of $$H^i(F,\mathbb{Z}_p(j))$$ for fields $F$. Here I refer to Galois cohomology (continuous group cohomology) and the group is ...

When does a number field have $p$-rank greater than $n$?

Consider $F/\mathbb{Q}$, a number field. Let $S$ be a finite set of primes of $F$ containing the Archimedean primes. Let $n$ be any natural number and $L_n$ be a finite extension of $F$ such that $\...
