Investigations in the Galois cohomology of number fields | |
We will survey a number of different results and conjectures relating to the cohomology of the Galois group of the maximal extension of a number field unramified outside of a finite set of primes. Of particular interest are the cyclotomic fields, for which there are connections between cup products of cyclotomic units and p-adic L-values of cusp forms. |
