On the Relation between 2 and ∞ in Galois Cohomology of Number Fields

Open full text 8 citations

Abstract

We remove the assumption ‘ p ≠ 2 or k is totally imaginary’ from several well-known theorems on Galois groups with restricted ramification of number fields. For example, we show that the Galois group of the maximal extension of a number field k which is unramified outside 2 has finite cohomological 2 -dimension (also if k has real places).
