Antieau–Williams conjecture on failure of purity for non-special semisimple groups
Antieau–Williams conjecture on failure of purity for non-special semisimple groups
Let be a field, let be a connected reductive group over , and let be an irreducible smooth -scheme with function field . Purity for -torsors over means that the map
is surjective. Antieau–Williams conjecture. If is a non-special, semisimple -group scheme, then there exists a smooth, affine -scheme for which purity fails. The conjecture predicts that purity for torsors is not a general phenomenon beyond the special case; the supplied text gives no resolution status, so it remains open here.
