Multiplicativity of Euler–Poincaré characteristics of cohomology of pro-$p$ groups

While reading a paper, I found a mentioning that for an extension $1 \rightarrow H \rightarrow G \rightarrow N \rightarrow 1$ of pro-$p$ groups, the Euler–Poincaré characteristics $\chi(H)$, $\chi(G)$,...

Non-abelian group cohomology, additional information

Let $G$ be a (profinite) group, and let $M$ be a non-abelian $G$-module. We know how to construct reasonably $H^0(G,M)$ and $H^1(G,M)$ and it turns out that $H^1(G,M)$ is just a pointed set and not ...

Profinite projective and free modules

I am studying cohomology of profinite groups and the following question came to my mind: suppose we have $G$ a pro-$p$ group which is Poincaré Dual of dimension $d$. This means that $\mathbb{Z}_p$ as ...

Rational cohomology cohomology of $p$-adic analytic groups

It is a result of Lazard that given $G$ a compact $p$-adic analytic group then we have an isomorphism \begin{equation} H^*(G; \mathbb{Q}_p) \cong H^*(T_eG; \mathbb{Q}_p) \end{equation} where $T_eG$ is ...

kernel and cokernel of corestriction map in cohomology of a profinite group

Let $G$ be a profinite group, $N$ a normal open subgroup and $A$ a discrete $G$-module. We have a corestriction map $cor: H^1(N, A)_{G/N} \to H^1(G, A)$. Are there any results on the kernel and ...

Continuous cohomology of a profinite group is not a delta functor

Let $G$ be a profinite group, then there is a general notion of continuous cohomology groups $H^n_{\text{cont}}(G, M)$ for any topological $G$-module $M$ (I require topological $G$-modules to be ...

A question about continuous group cohomology

Let $G$ be a profinite topological group, $M$ a discrete $G$-module. If $M$ is "P", is every $H^i_{\rm cont}(G,M)$ also "P"? or at least is it a subgroup/subquotient of an abelian group that is "P"? ...

On an inequality concerning the strict cohomological dimension of a profinite group

This is an exercise from Serre’s book on Galois cohomology. Let $G$ be a profinite group and $H$ a normal closed subgroup and suppose that the cohomological dimension at the prime $p$ of $G/H$ is ...
