Grothendieck-Serre Conjecture for Quasi-split Reductive Groups

Algebraic Geometry 2021-12-01 v2 Representation Theory

Abstract

We prove the Grothendieck-Serre conjecture for quasi-split reductive groups schemes. Our method involves reducing to the Borel subgroup in order to conclude the result from purity for tori and the structure theorem for unipotent radicals of parabolic subgroups in a reductive group.

Comments

There is a gap in the proof of Theorem 1.2 which, as yet, we cannot resolve. We thank K\k{e}stutis \v{C}esnavi\v{c}ius, Roman Federov and Sean Cotner for pointing out the gap in the proof
