1-smooth pro-p groups and Bloch-Kato pro-p groups
Abstract
Let be a prime. A pro- group is said to be 1-smooth if it can be endowed with a homomorphism of pro- groups satisfying a formal version of Hilbert 90. By Kummer theory, maximal pro- Galois groups of fields containing a root of 1 of order , together with the cyclotomic character, are 1-smooth. We prove that a finitely generated -adic analytic pro- group is 1-smooth if, and only if, it occurs as the maximal pro- Galois group of a field containing a root of 1 of order . This gives a positive answer to De Clerq-Florence's "Smoothness Conjecture" - which states that the Rost-Voevodsky Theorem (a.k.a. Bloch-Kato Conjecture) follows from 1-smoothness - for the class of finitely generated -adic analytic pro- groups.

Comments
To appear on 'Homology, Homotopy and Applications'. The current version of this paper is only one half of the original paper (versions v1--v4), as the author decided to split the original paper after its rejection from the referred journal which it was submitted to, more than 2 years ago (see Remark 1.2 for details)
