We give closed formulas for the abelian Galois cohomology groups H^1_{ab}(F,G) and H^2_{ab}(F,G) of a connected reductive group G over a global field F in terms of the algebraic fundamental group \pi_1(G) introduced earlier by one of us…
We investigate local-global principles for Galois cohomology, in the context of function fields of curves over semi-global fields. This extends work of Kato's on the case of function fields of curves over global fields.
Let $F$ be any field. We give a short and elementary proof that any finite subgroup $G$ of $PGL(2,F)$ occurs as a Galois group over the function field $F(x)$. We also develop a theory of descent to subfields of $F$. This enables us to…
In his work on defining the pointed set B(G) for all local and global fields, Kottwitz introduced certain Galois gerbes and considered their 'algebraic' cohomology with values in algebraic groups. However, the gerbes so constructed are only…
Let $G$ be a connected reductive group over a number field $F$, and let $S$ be a set (finite or infinite) of places of $F$. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the surjectivity of the localization map from $H^1(F,G)$ to the…
This paper proves local-global principles for Galois cohomology groups over function fields $F$ of curves that are defined over a complete discretely valued field. We show in particular that such principles hold for $H^n(F, Z/mZ(n-1))$, for…
We prove the finiteness of the kernel of the localization map in the Galois cohomology of a connected reductive group over a global field
We describe functorially the first Galois cohomology set $H^1({\mathbb R},G)$ of a connected reductive algebraic group $G$ over the field $\mathbb R$ of real numbers in terms of a certain action of the Weyl group on the real points of order…
For an arbitrary non-archimedean local field we classify reductive group schemes over the corresponding Fargues-Fontaine curve by group schemes over the category of isocrystals. We then classify torsors under such reductive group schemes by…
Let F be the function field of a curve over totally imaginary number field. Let p be a prime. If F contains a primitive p th root of unity, then every element in the third Galois cohomology group of F with values in the group of p th roots…
Let $L/K$ be a Galois extension of local fields of characteristic $0$ with Galois group $G$. If $\mathcal{F}$ is a formal group over the ring of integers in $K$, one can associate to $\mathcal F$ and each positive integer $n$ a $G$-module…
We prove that two arithmetically significant extensions of a field F coincide if and only if the Witt ring WF is a group ring Z/n[G]. Furthermore, working modulo squares with Galois groups which are 2-groups, we establish a theorem…
We construct an arithmetic analogue of the quantum local systems on the moduli of curves, and study its basic structure. Such an arithmetic local system gives rise to a uniform way of assigning a Galois cohomology class of the first…
We study surjectivity of a localization map in Galois cohomology.
We show that if $K$ is an arbitrary field and $G$ is a finite group then there exists a curve over $K$ with automorphism group $G$. We also give a positive solution to the weak inverse Galois problem for function fields over an arbitrary…
A finite group $G$ is said to be admissible over a field $F$ if there exists a division algebra $D$ central over $F$ with a maximal subfield $L$ such that $L/F$ is Galois with group $G$. In this paper we give a complete characterization of…
In 1999 Labesse introduced quasi-connected reductive groups and investigated their abelian Galois cohomology over local and global fields of characteristic 0. We (1) generalize some of the constructions of Labesse from quasi-connected…
In this paper, we describe Galois covers of algebraic curves and their families by using local systems associated to push-forward of sheaves by the structure morphism. More precisely, if $f:C\to Y$, we consider the sheaves $f_*(\C)$. The…
Let $K$ be the function field of a smooth projective geometrically integral curve over a finite extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$. Following the works of Harari, Scheiderer, Szamuely, Izquierdo, and Tian, we study the local-global and weak…
In this paper we investigate a local to global principle for Galois cohomology of number fields with coefficients in the Tate module of an abelian variety. In \cite{bk13} G. Banaszak and the author obtained the sufficient condition for the…
