On reciprocity equivalence of quadratic number fields
Let be a Dedekind domain with field of fractions and a finite group. We show that, if is a ring of -adic integers, then the Witt decomposition map between the Grothendieck-Witt group of bilinear -modules and the one of finite bilinear -modules is surjective. For number fields is also surjective, if is a nilpotent group of odd order, but there are counterexamples for groups of even order.
Let V be a paracompact connected real analytic manifold of dimension 1 or 2, i.e. a smooth curve or surface. We consider it as a subset of some complex analytic manifold VC of the same dimension. Moreover by a prime divisor of V we shall mean the irreducible germ along V of a codimension one subvariety of VC which is an invariant of the complex conjugation. This notion is independent of the choice of the complexification VC. In the one-dimensional case prime divisors are just points, in the two-dimensional...
In this paper we study some aspects of the cohomology of groups and we construct a central extension of the symplectic group .
