Equivariant Brauer groups and cohomology ✩

چکیده
In this paper we present a cohomological description of the equivariant Brauer group relative to a Galois finite extension of fields endowed with the action of a group of operators. This description is a natural generalization of the classic Brauer–Hasse–Noether’s theorem, and it is established by means of a three-term exact sequence linking the relative equivariant Brauer group, the 2nd cohomology group of the semidirect product of the Galois group of the extension by the group of operators and the 2nd cohomology group of the group of operators. 2005 Elsevier Inc.

Ring structures of mod p equivariant cohomology rings and ring homomorphisms between them
In this paper, we consider a class of connected oriented (with respect to Z/p) closed G-manifolds with a non-empty finite fixed point set, each of which is G-equivariantly formal, where G = Z/p and p is an odd prime. Using localization theorem and equivariant index, we give an explicit description of the mod p equivariant cohomology ring of such a G-manifold in terms of algebra. This makes ...
متن کاملQuaternionic Algebraic Cycles and Reality
In this paper we compute the equivariant homotopy type of spaces of algebraic cycles on real Brauer-Severi varieties, under the action of the Galois group Gal(C/R). Appropriate stabilizations of these spaces yield two equivariant spectra. The first one classifies Dupont/Seymour’s quaternionic K-theory, and the other one classifies and equivariant cohomology theory Z∗(−) which is a natural recip...
متن کاملThe Equivariant Brauer Group of a Group
We consider the Brauer group BM(k, G) of a group G (finite or infinite) over a commutative ring k with identity. A split exact sequence 1 −→ Br′(k) −→ BM′(k, G) −→ Gal(k, G) −→ 1 is obtained. This generalizes the Fröhlich-Wall exact sequence ([7, 8])from the case of a field to the case of a commutative ring, and generalizes the PiccoPlatzeck exact sequence ([13]) from the finite case of G to th...
متن کاملBrauer Groups
I define the Brauer group of a field k as similarity classes of central simple algebras over k. Then I introduce non-abelean cohomology and use it to prove that the Brauer group is isomorphic to a certain cohomology group. Brauer groups show up in global class field theory.
متن کاملA New Description of Equivariant Cohomology for Totally Disconnected Groups
We consider smooth actions of totally disconnected groups on simplicial complexes and compare different equivariant cohomology groups associated to such actions. Our main result is that the bivariant equivariant cohomology theory introduced by Baum and Schneider can be described using equivariant periodic cyclic homology. This provides a new approach to the construction of Baum and Schneider as...
