Bloch–Kato norm residue conjecture

Let kk be a field of characteristic different from a prime number pp. For each nonnegative integer nn, let KnM(k)/(p)K_n^M(k)/(p) denote Milnor KK-theory modulo pp, and let μpn\mu_p^{\otimes n} denote the nn-fold tensor power of the étale sheaf of ppth roots of unity. The norm residue homomorphism is

N ⁣:KnM(k)/(p)\ifnextchar/\toop\toop/>/Hetn(Speck,μpn).N\colon K_n^M(k)/(p)\ifnextchar/{\toop}{\toop/>/} \mathbb{H}_{\operatorname{et}}^n(\operatorname{Spec} k,\mu_p^{\otimes n}).

Bloch–Kato conjecture. This norm residue homomorphism is an isomorphism for any nonnegative integer nn.

This is the Bloch–Kato conjecture, also called the Milnor conjecture at the prime p=2p=2, and it is the central norm-residue statement motivating the manuscript. Its resolution is not established in the supplied source context.
