Abstract

Fix an arbitrary prime p. Let F be a field containing a primitive p-th root of unity, with absolute Galois group G_F, and let Hⁿ denote its mod p cohomology group Hⁿ(G_F,Z/pZ). The triple Massey product (abbreviated 3MP) of weight (n,k,m)∈N³ is a partially defined, multi-valued function 〈⋅,⋅,⋅〉:Hⁿ×H^k×H^m→H^n+k+m−1. In this work we prove that for an odd prime p, any defined 3MP of weight (1,k,1) contains zero.
