Ring structure on Brauer group

Class field theory defines an isomorphism between the Brauer group of a finite extension of p-adic fields and a cyclic group with a canonical generator. This in turn defines an isomorphism of the ...

Restriction of the local Artin map on the valuation ring of a local field

Let $F$ be a local field, in particular a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ for some prime $p$ and let $Art_{L}: L^\times \to Gal(F^{ab}/F)$ be its local Artin map. We know that if $L/F$ is a finite ...

Is there any relationship between the study of class number of a number field with the study of class field theory through Lubin-Tate formal group?

I am curious to know if we can somehow relate to the study of local class field theory through Lubin-Tate formal group with the study of class number of a field (global field in general) in class ...

Conductor and local Kronecker–Weber theorem

Given an abelian extension $K$ of $\mathbb{Q}$, the global Kronecker–Weber theorem tells us that there exist a positive integer $N$ and a primitive $N$-th root of unity $\zeta_N$ such that $K\subseteq ...

Extensions of p-adic number fields

Let $p$ be a prime number and $\mathbb{Q}_p$ be the $p-$adic rational field. Let $E/\mathbb{Q}_p$ be a fixed finite extension. On this site, I define a finite extension $F/E$ to be "good" if ...

sequences in non-abelian group cohomology

In general, if we have a (pro-)finite group $G$ and a sequence of (continuous) non-abelian $G$-modules $$1\rightarrow A\rightarrow B\rightarrow C\rightarrow 0,$$ such that the image of $A$ lies in the ...

A formal group scheme in explicit local class field theory

Let $K$ be a nonarchimedean local field with residue field $k$ of characteristic $q = p^N$, and pick a uniformizer $\pi\in \mathscr{O}_K$. Recall that explicit local class field theory, à la Lubin--...

Artin map restricted to base field

Let $M/L/K$ be a tower of local fields such that $M/L$ is abelian with Galois group $G$. The Artin map $\psi_{M/L}$ restricted to $K^\times$ is a continuous map to $G$ and thus corresponds to some ...

Learning Class Field Theory: Local or Global First?

I've noticed that there seem to be two approaches to learning class field theory. The first is to first learn about local fields and local class field theory, and then prove the basic theorems about ...

Hilbert symbols vanishing

Let $p$ be an odd prime, and let $E/\mathbb{Q}_p$ be a finite extension that contains a primitive $p$-th root of unity $\zeta_p$ but not a primitve $p^2$-th root of unity $\zeta_{p^2}$. Let $a,b \in E^...

Are the abelian absolute Galois groups of these local fields isomorphic?

For a field $F$ we denote by $F^{\mathrm{ab}}$ the compositum of all finite Galois abelian extensions of $F$. Is $\mathrm{Gal}(\mathbb{Q}_2(\sqrt[8]{3})^{\mathrm{ab}}/\mathbb{Q}_2(\sqrt[8]{3})) \...
