Title: "K-delic structures on arithmetic surfaces and two-dimensional class field theory"
Room: MC 107

Abstract: This is part 2 of the series "A generalization of the adelic analysis theory of Tate and Iwasawa to arithmetic surfaces"

Abelian extensions of a two-dimensional local field can be described by open subgroups of the topological Milnor K2-group of the field. Abelian extensions of the field of rational functions of an arithmetic surface can be described using a Milnor K2-deles which generalize the K1-group of adeles in dimension one, and its appropriate quotients. The K1-groups of the two adelic spaces on the arithmetic surface are related via the K2-delic groups.
