$H^1$ and fractional ideals group

This vanishing is very different from Hilbert's theorem 90. I will only sketch a proof as it is rather standard and it will be good for you to fill in the details. Your module is a permutation module …

"Forms" of quadrics

It is not too difficult to see that any automorphism of a smooth quadric hypersurface $$X : Q(x) = 0,$$ over a field $k$ must be a projective automorphism (see for instance the argument I give in Auto …

Twists of projective automorphisms

Thanks to the hint from Ulrich, I think I am now able to answer the question. The set $\mathrm{H}^1(k, \mathrm{Aut}(X_{\bar k},L_{\bar k}))$ classifes the following objects: $k$-Isomorphism classes …

Embedding torsors of elliptic curves into projective space

Suppose that $C \subset X$ is a smooth projective curve of genus $1$ embedded in a Brauer-Severi surface over a field $k$. We have $C^2 = 9$ since this holds after passing to the algebraic closure, wh …

Third Galois cohomology group

The group $H^3(K,\bar{K}^\times)$ naturally arises when trying to calculate the Brauer group of a variety. Explicitly, the Hochschild-Serre sequence yields the exact sequence $$0 \to \mathrm{Br}_1(X)/ …

Computing $H^1$ with coefficients in a torsion-free abelian group

I will focus attention on smooth projective varieties $X$ over $k$ with $\mathrm{Pic}(X_{\bar{k}})$ a free finitely generated abelian group, as they illustrate all the essential behaviour relevant to …

Applications of the Galois embedding problem

Shafarevich made heavy use of embedding problems in his resolution of the inverse Galois problem for solvable groups. The (naive) viewpoint is that solving the relevant embedding problems allowed him …

Elements of arbitrary large order in the first Galois cohomology of an elliptic curve

Here is the kind of method I had in mind. We have the elliptic curve Kummer sequence $$0 \to E[n] \to E \to E \to 0,$$ Here I denote by $E[n]$ the $n$-torsion group scheme of $E$. Applying Galois coh …
