Abstract
Let be a 2-dimensional global field of characteristic , and let be a divisorial set of places of . We show that for a given , the set of -isomorphism classes of spinor groups of nondegenerate -dimensional quadratic forms over that have good reduction at all , is finite. This result yields some other finiteness properties, such as the finiteness of the genus and the properness of the global-to-local map in Galois cohomology. The proof relies on the finiteness of the unramified cohomology groups for established in the paper. The results for spinor groups are then extended to some unitary groups and to groups of type .
