Invariant coefficients for continuous cohomology #

For a normal subgroup H of G acting distributively on an additive group M, the invariants M ^ H carry a distributive action of G ⧸ H. Over a profinite G with H open normal, these are the coefficients of the finite-quotient system computing continuous cohomology. Shrinking H enlarges M ^ H along transition inclusions. For arbitrary normal H, the quotient action also supplies the coefficients of inflation.

The invariant subgroup is Mathlib's FixedPoints.addSubgroup H M. Its algebraic actions, inclusions and pairings are supplied by TauCeti/GroupTheory/GroupAction/FixedPoints.lean, and their topology by TauCeti/Topology/Algebra/GroupAction/FixedPoints.lean. This file provides the compatibility with the continuous finite-quotient maps and the discrete-module dictionary.

Main results #

@[simp]

The coefficient inclusion M^U → M^V is equivariant after restriction along the quotient homomorphism G ⧸ V → G ⧸ U.

The coefficient dictionary commutes with quotient invariants. The explicit fixed-point module M^H, regarded as a discrete module over G ⧸ H, maps canonically to the invariants of the restricted canonical object. Its underlying function preserves the coefficient in M; only the two equivalent proofs of invariance differ.

This is the coefficient morphism used to compare explicit and canonical inflation.
