The transfer on first homology is the Verlagerung #
Let S be a finite-index subgroup of a group G and A a trivial representation over a
commutative ring k. With trivial coefficients, first group homology is the abelianization
tensored with the coefficients, H₁(G, A) ≃ Gᵃᵇ ⊗ A (Mathlib's
groupHomology.H1AddEquivOfIsTrivial). This file
proves that, under these identifications, the homological transfer H₁(G, A) ⟶ H₁(S, A) of
TauCeti.groupHomology.transfer is the group-theoretic transfer (Verlagerung)
Gᵃᵇ → Sᵃᵇ of Mathlib's MonoidHom.transfer, tensored with A.
This is the homological form of the classical fact that the transfer in degree one is the
Verlagerung. Through the comparison of negative Tate degrees with group homology it identifies
restriction in Tate degree -2 with the Verlagerung
(TauCeti.TateCohomology.HNegTwoAddEquivTensorOfIsTrivial_HNegTwoRes), which is the form in which
restriction enters the reciprocity map of class field theory.

The transfer on H₁ with trivial coefficients is the Verlagerung. For a subgroup S of a
group G, a finite-index subgroup S, and trivial coefficients A, the transfer
H₁(G, A) ⟶ H₁(S, A) sends the class
of x ⊗ a to the class of V x ⊗ a, where V : Gᵃᵇ → Sᵃᵇ is the group-theoretic transfer
MonoidHom.transfer of Abelianization.of : S →* Sᵃᵇ, descended to Gᵃᵇ.
The transfer on H₁ with trivial coefficients is the Verlagerung, read through the
identifications H₁(G, A) ≃ Gᵃᵇ ⊗ A and H₁(S, A) ≃ Sᵃᵇ ⊗ A: the transfer becomes V ⊗ A, for
V : Gᵃᵇ → Sᵃᵇ the group-theoretic transfer.
