Elementary Type Conjecture in Lego form
Elementary Type Conjecture in Lego form
A cyclotomic pro- pair is a pro- group equipped with its cyclotomic character; a pair is of Galois type when it arises from a maximal pro- Galois group, and finite rank means that its first cohomology has finite -dimension. Let be the minimal class of cyclotomic pro- pairs, up to isomorphism, containing the trivial pair , the pairs for , when , and the cyclotomic pro- pairs of -adic type, and closed under extensions and free products.
Elementary Type Conjecture in Lego form. Every cyclotomic pro- pair of Galois type and of finite rank is in .
This formulation says that finite-rank maximal pro- Galois groups can be assembled from the listed elementary building blocks using extensions and free products. The supplied text does not specify whether the conjecture has been resolved.
