Let L/K be a finite Galois extension of complete discrete valued fields of characteristic p. Assume that the induced residue field extension is separable. For an integer n ≥ 0, let denote the ring of Witt vectors of length n with coefficients in . We show that the proabelian group is zero. This is an equicharacteristic analogue of Hesselholt’s conjecture, which was proved before when the discrete valued fields are of mixed characteristic.
Let C be an irreducible smooth projective curve, of genus at least two, defined over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero. For a fixed line bundle L on C, let M C (r; L) be the coarse moduli space of semistable vector bundles E over C of rank r with ∧r E = L. We show that the Brauer group of any desingularization of M C(r; L) is trivial.
Let X be an irreducible smooth complex projective curve of genus g, with g ≥ 2. Let N be a connected component of the moduli space of semistable principal PGLr (ℂ)-bundles over X; it is a normal unirational complex projective variety. We prove that the Brauer group of a desingularization of N is trivial.
