On the splitting principle for cohomological invariants of reflection groups

Algebraic Geometry 2019-09-19 v2

Abstract

Let k0\mathrm{k}_{0} be a field and WW a finite orthogonal reflection group over k0\mathrm{k}_{0}. We prove Serre's splitting principle for cohomological invariants of WW with values in Rost's cycle modules (over k0\mathrm{k}_{0}) if the characteristic of k0\mathrm{k}_{0} is coprime to W|W|. We then show that this principle for such groups holds also for Witt- and Milnor-Witt KK-theory invariants.
