A -adic analogue of the Borel regulator and the Bloch-Kato exponential map
In this paper we define a -adic analogue of the Borel regulator for the
-theory of -adic fields. The van Est isomorphism in the construction of
the classical Borel regulator is replaced by the Lazard isomorphism. The main
result relates this -adic regulator to the Bloch-Kato exponential and the
Soul\'e regulator. On the way we give a new description of the Lazard
isomorphism for certain formal groups.Comment: 38 page
A cohomological Tamagawa number formula
For smooth linear group schemes over \bbZ we give a cohomological
interpretation of the local Tamagawa measures as cohomological periods. This is
in the spirit of the Tamagawa measures for motives defined by Bloch and Kato.
We show that in the case of tori the cohomological and the motivic Tamagawa
measures coincide, which reproves the Bloch-Kato conjecture for motives
associated to tori.Comment: 20 pages, reference adde
