Galois cohomology of abelian varieties
Suppose $A$ is an abelian variety over a number field $K$ and call $M$ the maximal torsion free quotient of $A(\overline{K})$ equipped with its Galois action.
For the first Galois cohomology of $M$, ...

Selmer Group versus Selmer Variety
For an abelian variety $A$, the $p$-adic Selmer group is defined to be the subset of $H^1(G_k,H_1^{et}(A;\mathbb{Q}_{p}))$ whose restriction to $G_{k_v}$ is in the image of $A(k_v)$ for all places $v$ ...
