We use twisted coefficients in a systematic way. We describe field extensions which are classified by certain residue classes modulo $p^n$th powers of a related field, and we obtain transparent proofs and slight generalizations of some classical results of Albert. The potential application to the cyclicity question for division algebras of degree $p$ is outlined.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2003-04-15T21:20:29.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "galois groups", "residue classes modulo", "galois cohomology groups", "th powers", "th root" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2003math......4202M" } } }
