In this paper, we develop a new necessary and sufficient condition for the vanishing of 4-Massey products of elements in the mod-2 Galois cohomology of a field. This new description allows us to define a splitting variety for 4-Massey…
Let $K$ be a global field which contains a primitive $p$-th root of unity, where $p$ is a prime number. M. J. Hopkins and K. G. Wickelgren showed that for $p=2$, any triple Massey product over $K$ with respect to $\mathbb{F}_p$, contains 0…
Let $p$ be a prime number, $F$ a field containing a root of unity of order $p$, and $G_F$ the absolute Galois group. Extending results of Hopkins, Wickelgren, Minac and Tan, we prove that the triple Massey product $H^1(G_F)^3\to H^2(G_F)$…
Fix an arbitrary prime $p$. Let $F$ be a field, containing a primitive $p$-th root of unity, with absolute Galois group $G_F$. The triple Massey product (in the mod-$p$ Galois cohomology) is a partially defined, multi-valued function…
We prove that, for all fields $F$ of characteristic different from $2$ and all $a,b,c\in F^\times$, the mod $2$ Massey product $\langle a,b,c,a \rangle$ vanishes as soon as it is defined. For every field $F_0$, we construct a field $F$…
We show that global vanishing of Massey products on a commutative differential graded algebra is not invariant under field extension. Non-vanishing triple Massey products remain non-vanishing upon field extension, while higher Massey…
We show that any triple Massey product with respect to prime 2 contains 0 whenever it is defined over any field. This extends the theorem of M. J. Hopkins and K. G. Wickelgren, from global fields to any fields. This is the first time when…
We give a uniform vanishing criterion for products in bounded cohomology. This allows us to reprove and extend previous vanishing results for cup products and Massey triple products in the bounded cohomology of free groups and in the…
Let p be a prime number and F a field containing a root of unity of order p. We relate recent results on vanishing of triple Massey products in the mod-p Galois cohomology of F, due to Hopkins, Wickelgren, Minac, and Tan, to classical…
We give a geometric proof that Hasse principle holds for the following varieties defined over global function fields: smooth quadric hypersurfaces in odd characteristic, smooth cubic hypersurfaces of dimension at least $4$ in characteristic…
We show that an often used example of a cohomology algebra with non-vanishing triple Massey product is intrinsically A_3-formal and therefore, in fact, cannot be realized as the cohomology of a differential graded algebra with non-vanishing…
We prove that there are infinitely many Maass--Hecke cuspforms over the field $\mathbb{Q}[\sqrt{-3}]$ such that the corresponding symmetric cube $L$-series does not vanish at the center of the critical strip. This is done by using a result…
We show that the absolute Galois group of any field has the vanishing triple Massey product property. Several corollaries for the structure of maximal pro-$p$-quotient of absolute Galois groups are deduced. Furthermore, the vanishing of…
In this paper, we present explicit computations of non-trivial triple $ABC$-Massey products on non-K\"ahler solvmanifolds endowed with an invariant complex structure. We prove that the {\em Bigalke-Rollenske manifold}, the {\em generalized…
We prove the Massey Vanishing Conjecture for $n=4$ and $p=2$. That is, we show that for all fields $F$, if a fourfold Massey product modulo $2$ is defined over $F$, then it vanishes over $F$.
Fix an arbitrary prime $p$. Let $F$ be a field containing a primitive $p$-th root of unity, with absolute Galois group $G_F$, and let $H^n$ denote its mod $p$ cohomology group $H^n(G_F,\mathbb{Z}/p\mathbb{Z})$. The triple Massey product of…
For squarefree $d>1$, let $M$ denote the ring class field for the order $Z[\sqrt{-3d}]$ in $F=Q(\sqrt{-3d})$. Hasse proved that $3$ divides the class number of $F$ if and only if there exists a cubic extension $E$ of $Q$ such that $E$ and…
We show that for an irreducible cubic $f\in\mathbb Z[x]$ and a full norm form $\mathbf N(x_1,\ldots,x_k)$ for a number field $K/\mathbb Q$ satisfying certain hypotheses the variety $f(t)=\mathbf N(x_1,\ldots,x_k)\ne 0$ satisfies the Hasse…
We give formulas for 3-fold Massey products in the \'etale cohomology of the ring of integers of a number field and use these to find the first known examples of imaginary quadratic fields with class group of $p$-rank two possessing an…
We prove the Hasse principle and weak approximation for varieties defined over number fields by the nonsingular intersection of pairs of quadratic forms in 8 variables. The argument develops work of Colliot-Thelene, Sansuc and…
