Galois Cohomology mod 2 of iterated Laurent series

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from two. For $n\geq 1$, set $F_n=k((X_1))\cdots ((X_n))$, and let $F=\displaystyle\bigcup_{n\geq 1}F_n$. If $I=\{i_1,\ldots,i_m\}$...

When is $G(R)\rightarrow G^{\textrm{ad}}(R)$ surjective?

Consider a reductive group $G$ over a field $k$. The adjoint group $G^{\textrm{ad}}$ is defined by the exact sequence $$1\rightarrow Z(G)\rightarrow G\rightarrow G^{\textrm{ad}}\rightarrow 1$$The ...

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)...

Galois cohomology with coefficients in the integers of the Lubin-Tate extension

Let $K$ be a $p$-adic local field, and $L$ the Lubin-Tate extension obtained from $K$ by attaching roots of some Lubin-Tate formal $\mathcal{O}_{K}$-module with $Gal(L/K) \simeq \mathcal{O}_{K}^{\...

Vanishing of the degree 2 cohomology of a p-adic field with coefficients Q/Z and action of the Frobenius and the Pontryagin dual of the inertia

Let $K$ be a $p$-adic field with Galois group $G$ and inertia subgroup $I\subset G$. Denote $(-)^\ast=\mathrm{Hom}_{cont}(-,\mathbb{Q}/\mathbb{Z})$. Using Tate local duality, we can compute $$H^2(G,\...

$0$-th Galois cohomology with topological Milnor K-groups coefficients

In local class field theory, the reciprocity map is constructed by using the isomorphism ${\rm Br}(F)\simeq \mathbb{Q/Z}$, where $F$ is a local field and ${\rm Br}(F)$ is its Brauer group. The ...

Finding a cyclic cubic extension of a field

Let $K$ be a field and let $E/K$ be a Galois extension of degree 6 with $\text{Gal}(E/K) = S_3$, the symmetric group on 3 letters. Pick two different transpositions $s_1, s_2$ in $S_3$ (hence $s_1s_2$ ...

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. ...
