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 $$...

Explicit cocycles for the first Galois cohomology of a $p$-adic torus

Let $K$ be a $p$-adic field (a finite extension of the field of $p$-adic numbers ${\mathbb Q}_p$). Let $T$ be a $K$-torus with character group $X={\sf X}^*(T)$ and cocharacter group $Y={\sf X}_*(T)=X^\...

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 $\...

Unramified non-abelian extension and Galois cohomology

Is there an example of a finite Galois extension $E/F$ of number fields, such that $G=\mathrm{Gal}(E/F)$ is non-abelian and the order of the cohomology group $H^1(G,U_E)$ is relatively prime to class ...

A three-line proof of global class field theory?

There is an idea (I think originally due to Tate) that class field theory is fundamentally a consequence of Pontrjagin duality and Hilbert Theorem 90. I'm curious whether this can phrased using modern ...
