Inflation from the layers of the units formation into the Brauer group #
For a field K with separable closure Kˢ and absolute Galois group G_K = Gal(Kˢ/K), the
layers V ◁ G_K of the formation TauCeti.ClassFieldTheory.unitsFormation K are the finite
layers of the Brauer group Br K = H²(G_K, (Kˢ)ˣ). This file gives the finite-layer
description of the Brauer group for this formation: the second cohomology of the layer V ◁ G_K
of an open normal subgroup V inflates into Br K (brInfl); the inflation is injective
(brInfl_injective), and every Brauer class is inflated from some layer (exists_brInfl_eq).
This is the map through which the invariant of the Brauer group is to be transported to the
finite layers.

Inflation from the layers of open normal subgroups into the Brauer group #
The second cohomology of the layer V ◁ G_K is that of the finite level V: Mathlib's
H²(G_K ⧸ V, ((Kˢ)ˣ)^V) of the layer, carried along NormalLayer.galOfOpenNormalEquiv, is the
explicit H² of the discrete finite level by
TauCeti.ContCohomology.explicitH2IsoGroupCohomology. The coefficient modules are the same
subgroup of (Kˢ)ˣ, the level of V.
Instances For
Inflation from the layer V ◁ G_K into the Brauer group Br K = H²(G_K, (Kˢ)ˣ): the
identification layerBrLevelEquiv of the layer's H² with the level of V, followed by
brLevelInfl. It is injective (brInfl_injective), and every Brauer class is inflated from some
layer (exists_brInfl_eq).
Instances For
brInfl V is brLevelInfl after the identification layerBrLevelEquiv.
Inflation from a layer into the Brauer group is injective, by Hilbert 90 for V
(brLevelInfl_injective).
Inflation into the Brauer group on cocycle classes. brInfl V sends the class of a
2-cocycle c of the layer V ◁ G_K to the Brauer class of every continuous 2-cocycle z on
G_K whose value at (g, h) is the value of c at the classes of g and h in
G_K ⧸ V, read in (Kˢ)ˣ.
Every Brauer class is inflated from a layer V ◁ G_K of the formation of units
(exists_brLevelInfl_eq).
If the trivial subgroup is open, its layer contains every Brauer class.
