The conjugate class at index two, in every degree #
Let U be an open subgroup of index two in a profinite group G. On HβΏ(U, π½β) the composite
res β cor of corestriction and restriction is 1 + s for either element s of the nontrivial
coset of U, so res β cor - id is the conjugation action of that coset, and it is defined
without choosing s. This file defines it in every degree, on Mathlib's canonical continuous
cohomology with trivial π½β coefficients, as OpenSubgroup.evensConj. It is the conjugate class
Ξ± β¦ s Β· Ξ± in the identities of the index-two Evens norm, such as
res N(Ξ±) = Ξ± β£ (s Β· Ξ±).
Its basic laws follow from cor β res = [G : U] = 2
(TauCeti.trivialF2ResMap_comp_trivialF2CorMap) alone: it is an involution, it fixes every class
restricted from G, and corestriction does not see it. In degree one it is the explicit
conjugation TauCeti.ContCohomology.evensConj1 read through the degree-one comparison
TauCeti.ContCohomology.explicitH1AddEquivContinuousCohomology, and so it is conjugation by every
element outside U (TauCeti.ContCohomology.evensConj1_eq_explicitConj1).

The conjugation of the nontrivial coset on HβΏ(U, π½β), for an open subgroup U of index
two, defined choice-free as res β cor - id. At index two res β cor is 1 + s for every
s β U, so this is conjugation by any such s, while depending on U alone; in degree one this
identification is evensConj_explicitH1AddEquivContinuousCohomology.

Instances For
The definition of evensConj as corestriction followed by restriction, minus the identity.
res β cor = id + evensConj on HβΏ(U, π½β) at index two, the definition of evensConj
solved for res β cor.
res (cor y) = y + evensConj y for every class y β HβΏ(U, π½β), at index two.
evensConj is an involution: conjugating twice by the nontrivial coset is the
identity.
evensConj (evensConj y) = y for every class y β HβΏ(U, π½β).
evensConj fixes restricted classes: restriction from G followed by evensConj is
restriction.
evensConj (res x) = res x for every class x β HβΏ(G, π½β).
Corestriction is invariant under evensConj: evensConj followed by corestriction to
G is corestriction.
cor (evensConj y) = cor y for every class y β HβΏ(U, π½β).
In degree one, evensConj is the explicit conjugation evensConj1. A class of
HΒΉ(U, π½β) presented by an explicit cocycle valued in the carrier of trivialF2 G is sent to the
class of its image under TauCeti.ContCohomology.evensConj1, both read in continuous cohomology
through the identification of the coefficient object with trivialF2 U. Hence evensConj in
degree one is conjugation by every element outside U
(TauCeti.ContCohomology.evensConj1_eq_explicitConj1).
