Abstract

In this survey we concentrate on the relations between the structure of small Galois groups, arithmetic of fields, Bloch–Kato conjecture, and Galois groups of maximal pro–p–quotients of absolute Galois groups.

Dedicated to Professor Paulo Ribenboim with admiration, respect and friendship on the occasion of his 80th birthday

Keywords

Bloch–Kato conjecture, Galois groups, Galois cohomology, Hilbert 90
