Existence of a bounded finitely generated torsion-free resolution

I am looking for a reference for (or a proof of) the following fact: Let $G$ be a profinite group. Let $X^\bullet$ be a complex of discrete $G$-modules. We assume that the cohomology $G$-modules of …

Existence of a bounded finitely generated torsion-free resolution

Proof (due to Joseph Bernstein). Assume that $H^i(X^\bullet)=0$ for $i>n$. We choose a $G$-morphism $A^n\to \ker[X^n\to X^{n+1}]$ such that the induced morphism $A^n\to H^n(X^\bullet)$ is surjective, …

The algebraic fundamental group of a reductive algebraic group

In addition to Marty's reference, I would recommend to look into §6 "Le groupe fondamental algébrique des groupes algébriques linéaires connexes via les resolutions flasques" of Colliot-Thélène's pape …

Quasi-isomorphism preserves group hypercohomology

I am looking for a reference for the assertion in the title. In more detail, let $\Gamma=\{1,\gamma\}$ be a group of order 2. Let $A$ be a $\Gamma$-module (an abelian group on which $\Gamma$ acts). T …

Regarding extensions of finite groups by Tori

(I write an answer rather than a comment in order to accommodate exact sequences.) Let $$0\to T\to E\to\Gamma\to 1\tag{$E_1$}$$ be your first group extension, where $T$ is the torus ${\Bbb R}^n/{\Bbb …

Reference for Pic(G) and central extensions.

I can give a reference only for the second part of the question, namely, about central extensions. It was answered by Colliot-Thélène in 2008, not 30 years ago! Colliot-Thélène's paper Résolutions fl …

Quasi-isomorphism preserves group hypercohomology

I give an elementary proof of the fact that a quasi-isomorphism of short complexes (complexes of length 2) of $\Gamma$-modules induces an isomorphism on hypercohomology. Actually, it is very close to …

Diophantine equation with no integer solutions, but with solutions modulo every integer

See Subsection 6.4.1 in my paper with Zeev Rudnick Hardy-Littlewood varieties and semisimple groups, Invent. Math. 119 (1995), 37-66, page 62 (or this PDF file, page 23). The equation is: $$ -9x^2+2x …
