A counterexample to generalizations of the Milnor-Bloch-Kato conjecture
Michael Spiess, Takao Yamazaki
Abstract
We construct an example of a torus T over a field K for which the Galois symbol K(K;T,T)/nK(K;T,T)→H2(K,T[n]⊗T[n])
is not injective for some
. Here
K(K;T,T) is the Milnor
-group attached to
introduced by Somekawa. We show also that the motive
gives a counterexample to another generalization of the Milnor-Bloch-Kato conjecture (proposed by Beilinson).
