Surjectivity of the cyclotomic Milnor-to-Quillen K-theory map

About 24 years old · traced to

Let pp be an odd prime satisfying Vandiver's conjecture. Let K=Q(μp)K={\mathbb Q}(\mu_p), and let OK\mathcal{O}_K denote the ring of pp-integers in KK. Consider the natural map

K2M(OK)⊗Zp⟶K2(OK)⊗Zp.K_2^M(\mathcal{O}_K)\otimes {\mathbb Z}_p\longrightarrow K_2(\mathcal{O}_K)\otimes {\mathbb Z}_p.

Surjectivity conjecture. The natural map is surjective. This conjecture concerns whether Milnor K-theory accounts for the relevant pp-adic Quillen K-theory under Vandiver's conjecture.
