The profinite extension associated with a pro-p class module #

For a closed normal subgroup V of a profinite group G, kill the kernel of the canonical map V → Vᵃᵇ(p) inside G. The resulting quotient sits in an exact sequence

1 → Vᵃᵇ(p) → G / ker(V → Vᵃᵇ(p)) → G/V → 1.

The inclusion identifies the kernel with the existing pro-p class module, and the extension induces its existing conjugation action. This realizes the class-module kernel as the kernel of a profinite extension, so coefficient maps can be used in the extension lifting theorem.

For prime p and a finite group presented by a free profinite group on finitely many generators, take G to be the free group and V its presentation kernel. Lyndon's isomorphism TauCeti.freeProfiniteGroup.abelianizationProPEquivRelationModule identifies the resulting coefficient group, written additively, with the relation module.

The kernel of V → Vᵃᵇ(p), regarded as a subgroup of the ambient group.

Instances For
    @[simp]

    An ambient element belongs to the extension kernel exactly when it belongs to V and has trivial image in Vᵃᵇ(p).

    The extension kernel is contained in V.

    @[reducible, inline]

    The total group of the extension with kernel Vᵃᵇ(p).

    Instances For

      The inclusion of the class module into the total group, induced by V ↪ G.

      Instances For
        @[simp]

        The inclusion sends the class of v ∈ V to its class in the ambient quotient.

        The class-module inclusion is injective.

        The inclusion has precisely the kernel of the projection as its range.

        The quotient group is an extension of G/V by its pro-p class module.

        Instances For
          @[simp]

          The inclusion in the exact sequence is the canonical class-module inclusion.

          @[simp]

          The projection in the exact sequence is induced by G → G/V.

          The section of the class-module extension given by the representatives Quotient.out.

          Instances For
            @[simp]

            The canonical section sends a quotient class to the class of its chosen representative.

            @[simp]

            The defect of the representative section of the class-module extension is the explicit class-module cocycle, read multiplicatively. No normalization of the representatives is needed.

            Conjugation in the extension induces the canonical quotient action on Vᵃᵇ(p).

            The ambient extension kernel is closed.

            The inclusion of the class module is continuous.

            @[reducible, inline]

            The class-module extension as a profinite group extension with the canonical action.
