Cyclicity and indecomposability in the Brauer group of a $p$-adic curve

For a $p$-adic curve $X$, we study conditions under which all classes in the $n$-torsion of $Br(X)$ are $\mathbb{Z}/n$-cyclic. We show that in general not all classes are $\mathbb{Z}/n$-cyclic classes. On the other hand, if $X$ has good reduction and $n$ is prime to $p$, of if $X$ is an elliptic curve over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ with split multiplicative reduction and $n$ is a power of $p$, then we prove that all order $n$ elements of $Br(X)$ are $\mathbb{Z}/n$-cyclic. Finally, if $X$ has good reduction and its function field $K(X)$ contains all $p^2$-th roots of $1$, we show the existence of indecomposable division algebras over $K(X)$ with period $p^2$ and index $p^3$.

Cyclic Length in the Tame Brauer Group of the Function Field of a p-Adic Curve

Let $F$ be the function field of a smooth curve over the $p$-adic number field $\Q_p$. We show that for each prime-to-$p$ number $n$ the $n$-torsion subgroup $\H^2(F,μ_n)={}_n\Br(F)$ is generated by $\Z/n$-cyclic classes; in fact the $\Z/n$-length is equal to two. It follows that the Brauer dimension of $F$ is two (first proved in \cite{Sa97}), and any $F$-division algebra of period $n$ and index $n^2$ is decomposable.

Tame Covers and Cohomology of Relative Curves over Complete Discrete Valuation Rings, with Applications to the Brauer Group

We prove the existence of noncrossed product and indecomposable division algebras over the function field of a smooth p-adic curve, especially when the curve does not admit a smooth model over Z_p. Thus we generalize arXiv 0907.0670. To make our constructions, we investigate the lifting of cohomology classes from the total fraction ring of the closed fiber to the function field of the curve, over an arbitrary discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristic.

Indecomposable and noncrossed product division algebras over function fields of smooth p-adic curves

We construct indecomposable and noncrossed product division algebras over function fields of smooth curves X over Z_p. This is done by defining an index preserving morphism s:Br(\hat K(X))' -> Br(K(X))' which splits res:Br(K(X)) -> Br(\hat K(X)), where \hat K(X) is the completion of K(X) at the special fiber, and using it to lift indecomposable and noncrossed product division algebras over \hat K(X).
