Functoriality of the pro-p class-module extension #
A continuous homomorphism f : G → H carrying a normal subgroup V into W descends to
G / ker(V → Vᵃᵇ(p)) → H / ker(W → Wᵃᵇ(p)). The descended map commutes with the projections
to G/V and H/W. No surjectivity of f, or of its restriction to V, is required.
In particular, a lift from a free profinite presentation to an arithmetic Galois group gives a comparison between their class-module extensions. This comparison can detect a generating extension class independently of a separately constructed surjection on the kernels.
If f maps V onto W, its map on class modules is surjective. For normal subgroups,
that map intertwines the quotient conjugation actions.
The construction uses TopologicalAbelianization.map followed by maximalProPQuotient.map
to show that the extension kernels are preserved.

Instances For
The induced total-group map sends the class of x to the class of f x.
The induced total-group map is uniquely determined by its values on representatives.
Surjectivity of an ambient homomorphism implies surjectivity on the total groups of the class-module extensions; surjectivity on the specified subgroups is not needed.
