Abstract.
In the two first parts of the series, we constructed stabilizer subtorsors of a ‘twisted Magnus’ torsor,
studied their relations with the associator and double shuffle torsors, and explained their ‘de
Rham’ nature. In this paper, we make the associated bitorsor structures explicit and explain
the ‘Betti’ nature of the corresponding right torsors; we thereby complete one aim of the
series. We study the discrete and pro-p versions of the ‘Betti’ group of the double shuffle
bitorsor.

Introduction
This paper is a sequel of [EF1, EF2]. The main result of this series of papers is the
proof, independent of [F], of the inclusion of the torsor of associators M(k)
over a commutative Q-algebra k into the torsor DMRDR,B(k) of
solutions of the double shuffle equations over the same algebra. This is obtained by constructing
in [EF1] pairs of algebra coproducts Δ^W,? and of module coproducts
Δ^M,?, ?∈{B,DR}, by studying their relation with
associators, and by studying in [EF2] the relations of M(k) and
DMRDR,B(k) with the torsors of isomorphisms
Stab(Δ^W,DR/B)(k) and
Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k) related to these coproducts.
It is well-known that the category of torsors (i.e. pairs (G,X), where G is a group
and X is a set with a free and transitive action of G) is equivalent to that of bitorsors
(i.e. triples (G,X,H) where (G,X) is a torsor and H is a group with a right action on X,
free, transitive and commuting with the action of G). An example of a bitorsor is the set of
associators M(k), where G (resp. H) is the Grothendieck-Teichmüller group
GT(k) (resp. GRT(k)). Related examples of torsors
are the ‘double shuffle’ pairs (DMRDR(k),DMRDR,B(k)) and
(DMR0(k),DMRμ(k)), with μ∈k×
(see [R, EF2]).
The primary purpose of this paper is an explicit construction of the corresponding bitorsor
structures. This is obtained in Theorem 3.14, (a), together with the analogous explicit
constructions for the stabilizer torsors Stab(Δ^W,DR/B)(k)
and Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k). In particular, the double shuffle counterpart
DMRB(k) of the group GT(k) is obtained in terms of a
stabilizer of the coproduct Δ^M,B (Lemma-Definition 3.10).
The other results of the paper are concerned with the study of the group DMRB(k).
We study its relation with the group GT(k) (Theorem 3.14, (b)).
We give an equivalent definition of DMRB(k) in terms of group-like elements for the
coproduct Δ^M,B (§4). Analogously
to what is done in [D] for the group scheme k↦GT(k),
we construct and study discrete and pro-p versions of the group scheme
k↦DMRB(k) (§§5, 6).
The identification of the bitorsor structure of the torsor DMRDR,B(k), obtained
in Theorem 3.14, (a), is based on its relation with a stabilizer torsor (see [EF2], §3.1)
and with the identification of the bitorsor of a stabilizer torsor (Lemma 1.10). The computation
of the discrete analogue DMRB of DMRB(k) (§5.2) is based
on the study of the discrete version ΔM,B of the coproduct Δ^M,B.
In order to establish the main properties of its pro-p version DMRpB (§6.3),
we recall some basics on pro-p groups (§6.1), and prove statements of [D] on
the pro-p analogue GTp of GT(k) (§6.2).
The material is distributed as follows: §1 is devoted to basic material on torsors and bitorsors,
§2 is devoted to the construction of an explicit bitorsor GDR,B(k) related to the
twisted Magnus group, §3 is devoted to the construction of several subbitorsors of
GDR,B(k) and to the first main result (Theorem 3.14), namely the construction of a
bitorsor structure on DMRDR,B(k) and of the group DMRB(k),
§4 is devoted to an equivalent definition of this group, §5 is devoted
to the definition and computation of a discrete analogue of DMRB(k), and §6
is devoted to the construction of its pro-p analogue.
Notation
In all the paper, k is a commutative and associative Q-algebra
with unit. For A an algebra, we denote by A× the group of its invertible elements. For a∈A (resp.
u∈A×), we denote by ℓa (resp. Adu) the self-map of A given by x↦ax
(resp. x↦uxu−1).

1. Torsors and bitorsors
In §1.1, we recall the formalism of torsors. We introduce the category
of bitorsors in §1.2 and recall its equivalence with the category of torsors.
In §1.3, we recall the main torsors of [EF2] and their interrelations.
1.1. Bitorsors
Recall from [EF2] the definitions of a (left) torsor, of a morphism between two torsors, of a subtorsor of a torsor
(Definition 2.1), of the preimage of a subtorsor by a torsor morphism (Lemma 2.2), of the intersection of two
subtorsors of a torsor (Lemma 2.3), of the trivial torsor GG attached to a group G (Lemma 2.4), of the
torsor injection inja: HH→ GG attached to a group inclusion H⊂G
and an element a∈G (Lemma 2.5), of a stabilizer subtorsor (Lemma 2.6).
Definition 1.1**.**
(see [G], Chap. III, Definition 1.5.3)
(a) A bitorsor GXH is a triple (G,X,H), where X is a set and G and H are groups, equipped with commuting
left and right actions of G and H on X, which are both free and transitive.
(b) If GXH and G′XH′′ are bitorsors, a bitorsor morphism GXH→ G′XH′′ is the data of a map
X→X′ and of compatible group morphisms G→G′ and H→H′.
(c) A subbitorsor of the bitorsor G′XH′′ is the data of a subset X of X′ and of subgroups G,H of
G′,H′, such that the inclusions build up a torsor morphism GXH→ G′XH′′ , which is then a bitorsor inclusion.
We will use the expressions ‘the torsor X’ (resp. ‘the bitorsor X’) to designate a torsor GX (resp. a bitorsor GXH).
Lemma 1.2**.**
Let GXH→ G′XH′′←G′′XH′′′′ be a diagram of a bitorsors.
Let G′′′ (resp. X′′′, H′′′) be the fibered product of G (resp. X, H)
and G′′ (resp. X′′, H′′) above G′ (resp. X′, H′). Then either X′′′ is empty, or
G′′′XH′′′′′′ is a bitorsor, called the fibered product of
GXH and G′′XH′′′′ above G′XH′′, denoted X′×XX′′ and fitting in a commutative diagram of bitorsors
[TABLE]
If G′′XH′′′′ is a subbitorsor of
G′XH′′ and X′′′ is nonempty, then G′′′XH′′′′′′ is a subbitorsor of
of GXH, called the preimage of G′′XH′′′′ by the torsor morphism GXH→ G′XH′′.
Proof.
Obvious. ∎
Definition 1.3**.**
We call a commutative square
[TABLE]
of bitorsors Cartesian iff there is an isomorphism to bitorsors A→B×DC
such that the diagram
[TABLE]
commutes.
Lemma 1.4**.**
Let GXH be a bitorsor and let G′XH′′ and G′′XH′′′′ be subbitorsors. Then either X′∩X′′ is empty, or
G′∩G′′X′∩XH′∩H′′′′ is a subbitorsor of GXH, called the intersection of both bitorsors.
Proof.
Obvious. ∎
Lemma 1.5**.**
A group isomorphism i:G′→G gives rise to a bitorsor GGG′, where G acts on the left on itself, and the right action
of G′ on G is given by g⋅g′:=gi(g′). The bitorsor GGG corresponding to i being the identity map of G
is called the trivial bitorsor attached to G.
Proof.
Obvious. ∎
Lemma 1.6**.**
Let G be a group and H be a subgroup. For any a∈G, there is a torsor inclusion
inja: HHH→ GGG
where the first (resp. second, third) component is the inclusion H↪G (resp. the map h↦ha−1,
the group morphism H→G, h↦aha−1).
Proof.
Obvious. ∎
The map a↦inja(GGG) sets up a map G/H→{subbitorsors of
GGG}.
If C is a category, we denote by IsoC(O,O′) the set of isomorphisms between
two objects O and O′ and by AutC(O) the group of automorphisms of an object O.
Definition 1.7**.**
The bitorsor attached to a pair of isomorphic objects O,O′ of a category C is
Bitor(O,O′):= AutC(O)IsoC(O′,O)AutC(O′). An action of a bitorsor on the pair
(O,O′) is a morphism from this bitorsor to Bitor(O,O′).
Lemma 1.8**.**
Let C be a category and let O,O′ be objects. Let i:G′→G be a group isomorphism and let
G→AutC(O), G′→AutC(O′) be group morphisms,
denoted g↦gO and g′↦gO′′. Let iO′,O∈IsoC(O′,O)
be such that for any g′∈G′, one has i(g′)O=iO′O∘gO′′∘(iO′O)−1. Then
a bitorsor morphism GGG′→Bitor(O,O′) is given by the above group morphisms and the map
G→IsoC(O′,O), g↦gO∘iO′O.
Proof.
Obvious. ∎
Lemma 1.9**.**
Let GXH be a bitorsor acting on a pair
(O,O′) of isomorphic objects of a k-linear tensor category
C. Then for any n,m≥0,
(HomC(O⊗n,O⊗m),HomC(O′⊗n,O′⊗m))
is a pair of isomorphic k-modules, equipped with an action of
GXH.
Proof.
If the action on (O,O′) is denoted G∋g↦gO∈AutC(O),
X∋x↦xO′,O∈IsoC(O′,O),
H∋h↦hO′∈AutC(O′), then the
action on this pair of modules is as follows: g∈G acts by
HomC(O⊗n,O⊗m)∋f↦gO⊗m∘f∘(gO⊗n)−1,
h∈H acts by
HomC(O′⊗n,O′⊗m)∋f′↦hO′⊗m∘f′∘(hO′⊗n)−1,
x∈X acts by
HomC(O′⊗n,O′⊗m)∋f′↦xO′,O⊗m∘f′∘(xO′,O⊗n)−1∈HomC(O⊗n,O⊗m).
∎
Lemma 1.10**.**
Let GXH be a bitorsor acting on a pair (V,W) of isomorphic k-modules. If (v,w)∈V×W,
then either StabX(v,w):={x∈X∣x⋅w=v} is empty, or
StabG(v)StabX(v,w)StabH(w) is a subbitorsor of
GXH, called the stabilizer bitorsor of (v,w), where StabG(v):={g∈G∣g⋅v=v} and
StabH(w):={h∈H∣h⋅w=w}.
Proof.
Similar to that of [EF2], Lemma 2.6. ∎
Lemma 1.11**.**
Let C be a Q-linear neutral Tannakian category and let
ω1,ω2:C→VecQ be two fiber functors.
The set Iso⊗(ω2,ω1) is a bitorsor under the
left and right actions of Aut⊗(ω1) and Aut⊗(ω2).
Proof.
Obvious. ∎
Define a right torsor XH to be a pair (X,H) of a set X and a group H acting freely and transitively on X from
the right. This gives rise to a torsor HopX.
Let Tor and Bitor be the categories of torsors and bitorsors. Then there are two functors
Bitor→Tor, defined on objects by GXH↦ GX and GXH↦ HopX.
1.2. From torsors to bitorsors
For GX a torsor, define AutG(X) to be subgroup of the permutation group of X acting on
the right which commute with all the elements of G. Then AutG(X) is a group, equipped with a right action on
X which commutes with the left action of G.
Lemma 1.12**.**
(a) The assignment GX↦AutG(X) defines a functor Tor→Gp from the
category of torsors to that of groups. The group AutG(X) will be called the ‘group attached to the torsor GX’.
(b) If GX is a torsor, then the right action of AutG(X) defines a bitorsor structure GXAutG(X)
on it. The assignment GX↦ GXAutG(X) defines a functor Tor→Bitor,
quasi-inverse to the functor Bitor→Tor, GXH↦ GX. In particular, if GXH is a bitorsor,
then there is a canonical isomorphism H≃AutG(X).
Proof.
See [G], Chap. III, Proposition 1.5.1. ∎
Lemma 1.13**.**
If GXH is a bitorsor and if G′XH′′, G′′XH′′′′ are subbitorsors of GXH such that
G′X′ is a subtorsor of G′′X′′, then H′⊂H′′ (inclusion of subgroups of H).
Proof.
Any element x∈X gives rise to a group isomorphism Adx−1:G→H, defined by the identity
g⋅x=x⋅Adx−1(g) for any g∈G, x∈X. If G′XH′′ is a subbitorsor of GXH and if
x∈X′, then Adx−1 restricts to a group isomorphism G′→H′. Likewise, Adx−1
restricts to a group isomorphism G′′→H′′. Then the subgroup H′ (resp. H′′) of H is the image of the subgroup G′
(resp. G′′) of G by Adx−1. As G′⊂G′′, this implies H′⊂H′′. ∎
1.3. Some torsors and their interrelations
In [EF2], we introduced a ‘twisted Magnus’ torsor
GDR,B(k) (§2.2), together
with its subtorsors GquadDR,B(k) (§2.3),
Stab(Δ^X,DR/B)(k) (X∈{W,M})
(§§2.6, 2.7),
M(k) (§2.4 and [D]), and
DMRDR,B(k) (§2.5), which is
constructed using the torsor
DMRμ(k) for μ∈k×
([R]) and contains it as a subtorsor.
In §3.1, Theorem 3.1, we showed the following relations between these subtorsors:
(1) inclusion M(k)↪DMRDR,B(k);
(2) equality DMRDR,B(k)=Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k)∩GquadDR,B(k);
(3) inclusion Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k)↪Stab(Δ^W,DR/B)(k).
The main purpose of this paper is the explicit computation of the
groups attached to these torsors in the sense of Lemma 1.12, (a), as well as the study of their interrelations.
This will make explicit the bitorsor structures attached to these torsors by Lemma 1.12, (b).
2. The bitorsor GDR,B(k) and its actions
In §2.1, we construct a Betti counterpart (GB(k),⊛) of the
variant GDR(k) from [EF2] of the ‘twisted Magnus group’ from [R].
In §2.2, we construct actions of GB(k), which are
the Betti counterparts of the actions of GDR(k) from [EF2], §1.6. In
§2.3, we show how to use GB(k) for upgrading the torsor
structure
GDR,B(k) into a bitorsor one, and
in §2.4, we show how the actions of §2.2 and of [EF2],
§1.6 can be combined to construct an action of the bitorsor GDR,B(k).
2.1. The group (GB(k),⊛)
2.1.1. The group (G(V^B),⋅)
Let VB be the k-algebra introduced in [EF1], §2.1, and let
(FiVB)i≥0 be the decreasing algebra filtration on it defined in [EF1], §2.1.
Let ΔV,B:VB→(VB)⊗2 be the morphism of
filtered k-algebras introduced in [EF1], §2.3. Then (VB,ΔV,B)
is a Hopf algebra. In [EF1], §2.5, we introduced the topological Hopf algebra
(V^B,Δ^V,B) obtained by completion with respect to the filtrations.
Denote by G(VB) (resp. G(V^B)) be the
group of group-like elements of the Hopf algebra (VB,ΔV,B) (resp.
(V^B,Δ^V,B)); we denote by ⋅ its product.
According to [EF1], §2.1, the Hopf algebra
(VB,ΔV,B) is the group algebra kF2, where F2 is the
free group with generators X0,X1, which leads to the equality G(VB)=F2.
Then the natural morphism G(VB)→G(V^B) can be identified
with the morphism from F2 to its k-prounipotent completion.
2.1.2. The automorphisms aut(μ,g)V,(1),B and
aut(μ,g)V,(10),B.
Let V^1B:=1+F1V^B⊂V^B.
For a∈V^1B, log(a) may be expanded as a series in a−1
and therefore makes sense as an element of F1V^B. If now μ∈k,
exp(μlog(a)) may be expanded as a series in μlog(a) and
therefore makes sense as an element of V^1B. This defines a self-map
of V^1B, denoted a↦aμ, which restricts to a self-map of
G(V^B).
For (μ,g)∈k××G(V^B), one checks that there is a unique automorphism
aut(μ,g)V,(1),B of the topological k-algebra V^B,
such that
[TABLE]
and a unique automorphism aut(μ,g)V,(10),B of the topological k-module
V^B,
such that
[TABLE]
2.1.3. The group (GB(k),⊛)
Lemma 2.1**.**
The product ⊛ given by
[TABLE]
defines a group structure on GB(k):=k××G(V^B).
Proof.
When (μ,g)∈GB(k), aut(μ,g)V,(1),B is an automorphism of the
Hopf algebra (V^B,Δ^V,B), which implies that for any
g′∈G(V^B), aut(μ,g)V,(1),B(g′)∈G(V^B). It follows that aut(μ,g)V,(10),B(g′)∈G(V^B), and therefore that ⊛ is a well-defined map GB(k)2→GB(k), which restricts to a map G(V^B)2→G(V^B).
The fact that (G(V^B),⊛) is a group can be proved analogously to [R],
Proposition 3.1.6. The group k× acts on V^B by μ∙Xi:=Xiμ for i=0,1.
This induces an action of k× on (G(V^B),⊛); one checks that
(GB(k),⊛) is the corresponding semidirect product, the injections k×↪GB(k) and G(V^B)↪GB(k) being given by
μ↦(μ,1) and g↦(1,g). ∎
2.2. Actions of the group (GB(k),⊛)
We denote by k-alg (resp. k-mod) the category of k-algebras (resp.
k-modules).
Definition 2.2**.**
(see [EF2], Definition 1.1)
If A is a k-algebra and M is a left A-module, then Aut(A,M) is the set of pairs (α,θ)∈Autk-alg(A)×Autk-mod(M), such that for any
a∈A, m∈M, one has θ(am)=α(a)θ(m); this is a subgroup of Autk-alg(A)×Autk-mod(M).
Lemma 2.3**.**
For (μ,g)∈GB(k), the pair (aut(μ,g)V,(1),B,aut(μ,g)V,(10),B) belongs to Aut(V^B,V^B)
(in which V^B is viewed as the left regular module over itself).
The map (GB(k),⊛)→Aut(V^B,V^B),
(μ,g)↦(aut(μ,g)V,(1),B,aut(μ,g)V,(10),B)
is a group morphism.
Proof.
The proof of the first statement is similar to that of the corresponding statement in Lemma 1.10 of [EF2].
The fact that (GB(k),⊛)→Autk-alg(V^B),
(μ,g)↦aut(μ,g)V,(1),B (resp. (GB(k),⊛)→Autk-mod(V^B), (μ,g)↦aut(μ,g)V,(10),B) is a group morphism is proved similarly to
Lemma 1.8 (resp. Lemma 1.9) in [EF2]. These facts imply the second statement.
∎
Lemma 2.4**.**
(see [EF2], Lemma 1.2)
In the situation of Definition 2.2, let A0 be a subalgebra of A0 and M0 be an A-submodule of M.
The set Aut(A,M∣A0,M0) of pairs (α,θ)∈Aut(A,M) such that α (resp.
θ) restricts to an automorphism of A0 (resp. of M0) is a subgroup of Aut(A,M), moreover
there is a natural group morphism Aut(A,M∣A0,M0)→Aut(A0,M/M0).
Let W^B be the topological k-subalgebra
of V^B) defined in [EF1], §2.5; it is given by
W^B=k1⊕V^B(X1−1).
View V^B as the left regular topological module over
itself; then V^B(X0−1) is a topological submodule.
According to [EF1], §2.5, we denote the corresponding quotient
topological V^B-module by M^B and
by 1B the class of 1 in this module; according to [EF1],
§2.5, the restriction of M^B to
W^B is free of rank one, generated by 1B.
Lemma-Definition 2.5**.**
If (μ,g)∈GB(k), then (aut(μ,g)V,(1),B,aut(μ,g)V,(10),B) is in
[TABLE]
We denote by (aut(μ,g)W,(1),B,aut(μ,g)M,(10),B) the corresponding
element of Aut(W^B,M^B) (see Lemma 2.4). The map
taking (μ,g) to this element is a group morphism (GB(k),⊛)→Aut(W^B,M^B).
Proof.
It follows from W^B=k1⊕V^B(X1−1), from
aut(μ,g)V,(1),B(X1)=X1μ for any (μ,g)∈GB(k), and from X1μ−1=fμ(X1−1)⋅(X1−1), where fμ(t):=((1+t)μ−1)/t∈k[[t]] for any μ∈k×, that
aut(μ,g)V,(1),B restricts to an automorphism of W^B for
any (μ,g)∈GB(k).
If (μ,g)∈GB(k) and v∈V^B, then aut(μ,g)V,(10),B(v⋅(X0−1))=aut(μ,g)V,(1),B(v⋅(X0−1))⋅g=aut(μ,g)V,(1),B(v)⋅g⋅(X0μ−1)=aut(μ,g)V,(10),B(v)fμ(X0−1)⋅(X0−1); this implies that
aut(μ,g)V,(10),B
restricts to an automorphism of V^B(X0−1).
∎
Recall that V^B is freely generated, as a topological algebra, by logX0 and logX1;
for g∈V^B, we denote by {logX0,logX1}∗→k the map such that
g=∑w∈{logX0,logX1}∗(g∣w)w, where {logX0,logX1}∗
is the set of (possibly empty) words in logX0,logX1.
Definition 2.6**.**
For g∈V^B, Γg∈k[[t]]× is the series given by
[TABLE]
Definition 2.7**.**
(see [EF2], Definition 1.1)
If A is a k-algebra and if G→Autk-alg(A), g↦αg is a group morphism,
a cocycle of G in A equipped with g↦αg is a map G→A×,
g↦cg such that cgg′=cg⋅αg(cg′) for any g,g′∈G.
Lemma 2.8**.**
The map Γ:GB(k)→(V^B)×, (μ,g)↦Γg−1(−logX1), is a cocycle of (GB(k),⊛)
in V^B equipped with (μ,g)↦aut(μ,g)V,(1),B.
This map corestricts to a map Γ:GB(k)→(W^B)×, which is
a cocycle of the same group in W^B equipped with
(μ,g)↦aut(μ,g)W,(1),B.
Proof.
The proof is similar to that of Lemmas 1.12 and 1.13 in [EF2]. ∎
Lemma-Definition 2.9**.**
For (μ,g)∈GB(k), set Γaut(μ,g)W,(1),B:=AdΓg−1(−logX1)∘aut(μ,g)W,(1),B∈Autk-alg(W^B),
Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),B:=ℓΓg−1(−logX1)∘aut(μ,g)M,(10),B∈Autk-mod(M^B).
Then the pair (Γaut(μ,g)W,(1),B,Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),B) belongs to
Aut(W^B,M^B) and the map (GB(k),⊛)→Aut(W^B,M^B) is a group morphism.
Proof.
Lemma 1.4 in [EF2] gives conditions for a cocycle to be used for twisting a group
morphism G→Aut(A,M). Lemmas 2.8 and 2.5
show that these conditions are fulfilled. ∎
2.3. A bitorsor structure on GDR,B(k)
The group (GDR(k),⊛) is defined in [EF2], §1.6.1. Recall that
GDR(k)=k××G(V^DR) (equality of sets),
where (V^DR,Δ^V,DR) is the topological Hopf algebras
from [EF1], §1.3, and the product ⊛ is defined in [EF2], §1.6.1.
In [EF1], §3.3, we defined an isomorphism isoV:V^B→V^DR of topological k-algebras.
Lemma 2.10**.**
isoV* is an isomorphism of topological Hopf algebras.*
Proof.
This follows from isoV:Xi↦exp(ei) for i=0,1,
and from the fact the Xi (resp. ei) is group-like (resp. primitive) for Δ^V,B
(resp. Δ^V,DR). ∎
Lemma 2.11**.**
The map isoV restricts to group isomorphisms
isoG:(G(V^B),⊛)→(G(V^DR),⊛) and isoG:(GB(k),⊛)→(GDR(k),⊛), given by the map
GB(k)=k××G(V^DR)→id×isoGk××G(V^DR)=GDR(k).
Proof.
The fact that isoG and isoG are bijections follows from Lemma
2.10. The compatibility of these maps with the products ⊛ on both sides follows from comparison of
their constructions, given respectively in §2.1.3 and [EF2], §1.6.1. ∎
Definition 2.12**.**
The bitorsor GDR,B(k) is the structure obtained by applying Lemma 1.5 to the
group isomorphism from Lemma 2.11.
The underlying set of this bitorsor is GDR(k), the left action is that of GDR(k) on itself,
and the right action is that of GB(k) on GDR(k) given by (μ,g)⋅(μ′,g′):=(μ,g)⊛isoG(μ′,g′). The corresponding torsor coincides therefore with the torsor
GDR,B(k) from [EF2], Definition 2.8.
2.4. Actions of the bitorsor GDR,B(k)
Definition 2.13**.**
We define k-alg−mod to be the category whose
objects are the pairs (A,M), where A is a k-algebra and
M is A-module, and such that a morphism (A,M)→(A′,M′) is a pair of
an algebra morphism A→A′ and a compatible k-module
morphism M→M′.
In [EF1], §1.3, we defined the topological k-subalgebra of V^DR by
W^DR:=k1⊕V^DRe1, the V^DR-module
M^DR:=V^DR/V^DRe0, and its element 1DR defined
as the class of 1, and showed that M^DR
is freely generated by 1DR as a W^DR-module. Recall from [EF1], §3.3
that the isomorphism isoV induces compatible isomorphisms
isoW:W^B→W^DR
of topological k-algebras
and isoM:M^B→M^DR of
topological k-modules.
Lemma 2.14**.**
For ω∈{B,DR}, the pair (W^ω,M^ω), in which the second component is viewed as a left
module over the first, is an object of k-alg-mod, which will be denoted
(W^,M^)ω. An isomorphism isoW,M:(W^,M^)B→(W^,M^)DR is given by the pair (isoW,isoM).
Proof.
The first statement follows from [EF1], §§1.3 and 2.5. The second statement follows from
[EF1], §3.3. ∎
In [EF2], Lemma 1.14, we defined a group morphism
[TABLE]
Lemma 2.15**.**
The conditions of Lemma 1.8 are satisfied in case of the group isomorphism
isoG:GB(k)→GDR(k), of the isomorphism
isoW,M:(W^,M^)B→(W^,M^)DR
in k-alg-mod, and of the group morphisms Gω(k)∋(μ,g)↦(Γaut(μ,g)W,(1),ω, Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),ω)∈Autk-alg-mod((W^,M^)ω) for ω∈{B,DR}.
Proof.
This follows from the identities autisoG(μ,g)V,(α),DR=isoV∘aut(μ,g)V,(α),B∘(isoV)−1
for any (μ,g)∈GB(k), where α∈{1,10}, which follow from comparison of the definitions of
aut(μ,g)V,(α),B and aut(μ,g)V,(α),DR in §2.1.2
and in [EF2], §1.6.2, and from ΓisoG(g)(t)=Γg(t)
for g∈GB(k). ∎
In [EF2], Definition 1.15, we defined, for any (μ,g)∈GDR(k), isomorphisms
Γcomp(μ,g)W,(1)= Γaut(μ,g)W,(1),DR∘isoW∈Isok-alg(W^B,W^DR) and
Γcomp(μ,g)M,(10)=Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),DR∘isoM∈Isok-mod(M^B,M^DR).
Lemma 2.16**.**
The map GDR(k)→Isok-alg-mod((W^,M^)B,(W^,M^)DR) underlying the bitorsor morphism
GDR,B(k)→Bitor((W^,M^)DR,(W^,M^)B) arising
from Lemma 2.15 is
[TABLE]
Proof.
Immediate. ∎
3. Subbitorsors of GDR,B(k)
In this section, we explicitly construct the bitorsors attached to the torsors of [EF2],
by constructing Betti counterparts of their underlying groups;
this is done in §3.1 (resp. §3.2, §3.3, §3.4, §3.5)
for the ’linear and quadratic conditions’ torsor GquadDR,B(k)
(resp. the stabilizer torsors Stab(Δ^W,DR/B)(k),
Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k), the double shuffle torsors
DMRDR,B(k) and DMRμ(k)), and this construction is
recalled from [D] in §3.6 for the case of the torsor of associators M(k).
In §3.7, we derive from the relations of the torsors of [EF2] certain
relations between the Betti counterparts of the underlying groups. We make explicit the
Lie algebras of these groups and their interrelations in §3.8. Finally, we make explicit the
relations of the stabilizer bitorsors Stab(Δ^W,DR/B)(k),
Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k) with coalgebra and Hopf algebra bitorsors (§3.9).
3.1. GquadDR,B(k) as a subbitorsor of
GDR,B(k)
3.1.1. The group (GquadB(k),⊛)
Definition 3.1**.**
We set
[TABLE]
Lemma 3.2**.**
GquadB(k)* is a subgroup of
(GB(k),⊛).*
Proof.
Define GlinB(k) to be the subset of all pairs (μ,g) of GB(k)
such that (g∣logX0)=(g∣logX0)=0. Then GlinB(k)=(isoG)−1(GlinDR(k)), where GlinDR(k)
is the subgroup of (GDR(k),⊛) defined in [EF2], proof of Lemma 2.10, therefore
(GlinB(k),⊛) is a subgroup of (GB(k),⊛).
Recall from [EF2], proof of Lemma 2.10, the group (k××k,⋅), where
(μ,c)⋅(μ′,c′):=(μμ′,c+μ2c′); it is the semidirect product corresponding to the action of
k× on (k,+) by λ∙a:=λ2a. The composed morphism
φquad∘isoG:GlinB(k)→(k××k,⋅)
is given by (μ,g)↦(μ,(g∣logX0logX1)), where
φquad:GlinDR(k)→(k××k,⋅) is as in
[EF2], proof of Lemma 2.10.
On the other hand, {(μ,c)∣c=(μ2−1)/24,μ∈k×} coincides with the subgroup
Ad(1,−1/24)(k×) of (k××k,⋅), where k×
is the subgroup {(μ,0)∣μ∈k×} of (k××k,⋅). Its preimage
by the above group morphism is therefore a subgroup of (GlinB(k),⊛).
The result now follows from the fact that this preimage coincides with GquadB(k).
∎
3.1.2. Bitorsor structure on GquadDR,B(k)
In [EF2], Definition 2.9, we introduced the subsets GquadDR,B(k) and
GquadDR(k) of GDR(k), and in Lemma 2.10, proved that
GquadDR(k) is a subgroup of GDR(k), and that
GquadDR,B(k), equipped with the left action of this group, is a
subtorsor of GDR,B(k).
Lemma 3.3**.**
The right action of GB(k) on GDR(k) restricts to a free and transitive action of
GquadB(k) on GquadDR,B(k),
so that this right action equips GquadDR,B(k) with the structure of a
subbitorsor of the bitorsor GDR,B(k).
Proof.
Let i:G′→G be a group isomorphism and let H⊂G be a subgroup,
and H′:=i−1(H)⊂G′. The i restricts to an isomorphism
H′→H. This gives rise to bitorsors HHH′
and GGG′ (see Lemma 1.5); the natural inclusions give rise to a bitorsor
inclusion HHH′⊂ GGG′. A group morphism φ:H→K
gives rise to group morphism φ∘i:H′→K and to a bitorsor morphism
φφφ∘i: HHH′→ KKK. Then a subgroup
L⊂K and an element k∈K give rise to a bitorsor inclusion
injk: LLL↪ KKK (see Lemma 1.6). Then
(φφφ∘i)−1(injk(LLL)) is a subtorsor of HHH′, hence of
GGG′. One has (φφφ∘i)−1(injk(LLL))= ABC, where
A:=φ−1(L)⊂G, C:=i−1∘φ−1(Adk(L))⊂G′, B:=φ−1(L⋅k−1)⊂G.
This is summarized in the diagram of bitorsors
[TABLE]
When i:=isoG:GB(k)→GDR(k),
H:=GlinDR(k), H′:=GlinB(k),
K:=(k××k,⋅), φ:=φquad (see [EF2], proof of Lemma 2.3),
L:=k×={(μ,0)∣μ∈k×},
k:=(1,−1/24), one has A=φquad−1(k×)=GquadDR(k) by [EF2], Lemma 2.3,
C=(isoV)−1∘φquad−1(Ad(1,−1/24)(k×))=GquadB(k)
by Lemma 3.2. One checks that k×⋅k−1={(μ,c)∣c=μ2/24}, which shows that B=φquad−1(k×⋅k−1)=GDR,B(k). ∎
3.2. Stab(Δ^W,DR/B)(k) as a subbitorsor of
GDR,B(k)
Lemma 3.4**.**
The map GB(k)→Autk-mod(Homk-modtop(W^B,(WB)⊗2∧)) taking (μ,g) to F↦(Γaut(μ,g)W,(1),B)⊗2∘F∘(Γaut(μ,g)W,(1),B)−1
defines an action of the group GB(k) on the
k-module Homk-modtop(W^B,(WB)⊗2∧).
Proof.
Follows from Lemma-Definition 2.9. ∎
Definition 3.5**.**
Set Stab(Δ^W,B)(k):=StabGB(k)(Δ^W,B). This is a subgroup of (GB(k),⊛), equal to the set of (μ,g)∈GB(k), such that
(Γaut(μ,g)W,(1),B)⊗2∘Δ^W,B=Δ^W,B∘ Γaut(μ,g)W,(1),B.
In [EF2], Definitions 2.14 and 2.15, we introduced the subsets Stab(Δ^W,DR/B)(k) and
Stab(Δ^W,DR)(k) of GDR(k), and in Lemma 2.16 and Theorem 3.1,
proved that Stab(Δ^W,DR)(k) is a subgroup of GDR(k), and that
Stab(Δ^W,DR/B)(k), equipped with the left action of this group, is a subtorsor of
GDR,B(k).
Lemma 3.6**.**
The right action of GB(k) on GDR(k) restricts to a free and transitive action of
Stab(Δ^W,B)(k) on Stab(Δ^W,DR/B)(k),
so that this right action equips Stab(Δ^W,DR/B)(k) with the structure of a
subbitorsor of the bitorsor GDR,B(k).
Proof.
One derives from §2.4 an action of the bitorsor
GDR,B(k)
on the pair of isomorphic topological k-algebras (W^DR,W^B).
Viewing this as a pair of objects of the tensor category k-modtop,
and using Lemma 1.9, one obtains an action of the bitorsor GDR,B(k)
on the pair of isomorphic k-modules (Homk-modtop(W^DR,(WDR)⊗2∧),Homk-modtop(W^B,(WB)⊗2∧)). Recall that
(Δ^W,DR,Δ^W,B) is a pair of elements of this pair of modules.
By Lemma 1.10, this gives rise to the stabilizer subbitorsor
StabGDR(k)(Δ^W,DR)StabGDR(k)(Δ^W,DR,Δ^W,B)StabGB(k)(Δ^W,B) of GDR,B(k).
∎
3.3. Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k) as a subbitorsor of
GDR,B(k)
Lemma 3.7**.**
The map GB(k)→Autk-mod(Homk-modtop(M^B,(MB)⊗2∧)) taking (μ,g) to F↦(Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),B)⊗2∘F∘(Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),B)−1
defines an action of the group GB(k) on the
k-module Homk-modtop(W^B,(WB)⊗2∧).
Proof.
Follows from Lemma-Definition 2.9. ∎
Definition 3.8**.**
Set Stab(Δ^M,B)(k):=StabGB(k)(Δ^M,B). This is a subgroup of (GB(k),⊛), equal to the set of (μ,g)∈GB(k), such that
(Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),B)⊗2∘Δ^M,B=Δ^M,B∘ Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),B.
In [EF2], Definitions 2.17 and 2.18, we introduced the subsets Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k) and
Stab(Δ^M,DR)(k) of GDR(k), and in Lemma 2.19 and Theorem 3.1,
proved that Stab(Δ^M,DR)(k) is a subgroup of GDR(k), and that
Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k), equipped with the left action of this group, is a subtorsor of
GDR,B(k).
Lemma 3.9**.**
The right action of GB(k) on GDR(k) restricts to a free and transitive action of
Stab(Δ^M,B)(k) on Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k),
so that this right action equips Stab(Δ^W,DR/B)(k) with the structure of a
subbitorsor of the bitorsor GDR,B(k).
Proof.
One derives from §2.4 an action of the bitorsor
GDR,B(k)
on the pair of isomorphic topological k-algebras (W^DR,W^B).
Viewing this as a pair of objects of the tensor category k-modtop,
and using Lemma 1.9, one obtains an action of the bitorsor GDR,B(k)
on the pair of isomorphic k-modules (Homk-modtop(W^DR,(WDR)⊗2∧),Homk-modtop(W^B,(WB)⊗2∧)). Recall that
(Δ^W,DR,Δ^W,B) is a pair of elements of this pair of modules.
By Lemma 1.10, this gives rise to the stabilizer subbitorsor
StabGDR(k)(Δ^W,DR)StabGDR(k)(Δ^W,DR,Δ^W,B)StabGB(k)(Δ^W,B) of GDR,B(k). ∎
3.4. DMRDR,B(k) as a subbitorsor of
GDR,B(k)
Lemma-Definition 3.10**.**
Set DMRB(k):=GquadB(k)∩Stab(Δ^M,B)(k).
Then DMRB(k) is a subgroup of (GB(k),⊛).
Proof.
This follows from Lemma 3.2 and from the fact that
Stab(Δ^M,B)(k) is a subgroup of (GB(k),⊛).
∎
In [EF2], Definition 2.12, we introduced the subsets
DMRDR(k) and DMRDR,B(k)
of GDR(k), and in Lemma 2.13, proved that
DMRDR(k) is a subgroup of GDR(k), and that
DMRDR,B(k), equipped with the left action of this group, is a subtorsor
of GDR,B(k).
Lemma 3.11**.**
The right action of GB(k) on GDR(k) restricts to a free and transitive action of
DMRB(k) on DMRDR,B(k),
so that this right action equips DMRDR,B(k) with the structure of a
subbitorsor of the bitorsor GDR,B(k).
Proof.
By Lemmas 1.4, 3.3 and 3.9, the intersection of the bitorsors
GquadDR,B(k) and Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k)
is a subbitorsor of GDR,B(k). The result then follows from
DMRDR(k)=GquadDR(k)∩Stab(Δ^M,DR)(k)⊂GDR(k) and
DMRDR,B(k)=GquadDR,B(k)∩Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k)⊂GDR(k), which follows
from [EF2], Theorem 3.1, (a).
∎
3.5. DMRμ(k) as a subbitorsor of
GDR,B(k)
Lemma-Definition 3.12**.**
Set DMR0B(k):={g∈G(V^B) ∣ (g∣logX0)=(g∣logX1)=(g∣logX0logX1)=0 and (Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),B)⊗2∘Δ^M,B=Δ^M,B∘ Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),B}. Then DMR0B(k) is a subgroup of
(G(V^B),⊛).
Proof.
The map (μ,g)↦μ is a group morphism GB(k)→k×, whose kernel
is equal to (G(V^B),⊛). Then DMR0B(k) is equal to the intersection of
this kernel with DMRB(k), and is therefore the intersection of two subgroups of GB(k).
∎
In [R], Racinet introduced the subsets DMR0(k) and DMRμ(k)
of G(V^DR) for any μ∈k, and proved that DMR0(k) is a
subgroup of (G(V^DR),⊛), and that DMRμ(k), equipped with the
left action of this group, is a subtorsor of G(V^DR), viewed as a trivial torsor over itself. In
[EF2], Lemma 2.14, we identified the torsor DMRμ(k) with a subtorsor of
DMRDR,B(k), viewed as a torsor under the left action of DMRDR(k).
Lemma 3.13**.**
*The right action of DMRB(k) on DMRDR(k) restricts to a free and
transitive action of DMR0B(k) on DMRμ(k),
so that this right action equips DMRμ(k) with the structure of a
subbitorsor of the bitorsor DMRDR,B(k).
*
Proof.
The maps (μ,g)↦μ set up a bitorsor morphism from
DMRDR(k)DMRDR,B(k)DMRB(k) to
k×k×k×. Then {1}{μ}{1} is a subbitorsor of the
latter torsor. Its preimage is therefore a subbitorsor of the source bitorsor. The result follows from the identification of
the preimage of kernel of DMRDR(k)→k× (resp.
DMRB(k)→k×) with DMR0(k) (resp. with
DMR0B(k)) and of the preimage of μ under the map
DMRDR,B(k)→k× with
DMRμ(k), obtained in the proof of Lemma 2.14 in [EF2]. ∎
3.6. M(k) as a subbitorsor of GDR,B(k)
It follows from [D] that the subgroup GTop(k)⊂GB(k)
is the group attached to M(k), viewed as a subtorsor of
GDR,B(k) when equipped with the left action of GRTop(k).
It follows that M(k), equipped with the commuting left and right actions of
GRT(k)op and GRT(k)op, is a subbitorsor of
GDR,B(k).
3.7. Groups corresponding to some torsors and their interrelations
Theorem 3.14**.**
(a) The group attached, in the sense of Lemma 1.12, (a), to the subtorsor
Stab(Δ^W,DR/B)(k)
(resp., Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k),
DMRDR,B(k),
DMRμ(k)) of
the torsor GDR,B(k) is the subgroup
Stab(Δ^W,B)(k)
(resp., Stab(Δ^M,B)(k),
DMRB(k), DMR0B(k)) of GB(k).
(b) The following inclusions hold between subgroups of GB(k):
[TABLE]
Proof.
(a) follows from the fact that for any bitorsor GXH, there is a unique group isomorphism
H→AutG(X) (see §1.2). Then (b) follows from Lemma 1.13 from the present paper,
Theorem 3.1 in [EF2] and Lemma-Definition 3.10 from the present paper. ∎
Remark 3.15**.**
[DeG] contains the construction of a Q-linear neutral Tannakian category
T:=MT(Z)Q of mixed Tate motives over Z,
equipped with ‘Betti’ and ‘de Rham’ fiber functors as in Lemma 1.8.
It leads to the construction Iso⊗(ωB,ωDR)(k), which is a bitorsor under the left (resp. right) actions of
Aut⊗(ωB)(k) (resp. Aut⊗(ωDR)(k)).
There is a morphism from this bitorsor to the associator bitorsor M(k)
(see [Andr]), which in its turn is equipped with morphisms to the bitorsors of Lemmas 3.3,
3.6, 3.9, 3.11. This explains the namings ‘De Rham’ and ‘Betti’ and
for the left and right sides of these bitorsors.
3.8. Scheme-theoretic and Lie algebraic aspects
The assignments
[TABLE]
where ? stands for no index or quad, ?? stands for no index or 0, ??? stands for M or W,
are Q-group schemes. Recall that the Lie algebra of a Q-group scheme k↦G(k)
is defined as Ker(G(Q[ϵ]/(ϵ2))→G(Q)); it is a Q-Lie
algebra. Let
[TABLE]
be the Lie algebras of the Q-group schemes (3.8.1).
Denote with an index Q the objects and morphisms of §2.1 corresponding to
k=Q. The primitive part of V^QB=(QF2)∧ with respect to Δ^QV,B is
the complete Lie algebra LieF2(Q), topologically generated by the free family
logX0, logX1, where log is the logarithm map
1+(V^QB)+→(V^QB)+ .
Let D be the derivation of LieF2(Q) defined by
logXi↦logXi, for i=0,1. For x∈LieF2(Q),
let Dx be the derivation of LieF2(Q) defined by
logX0↦[x,logX0], logX1↦0.
Lemma 3.16** (see [D]).**
(a) gB is a complete Lie algebra, of which
gtop and g0B are complete Lie subalgebras.
(b) gB=Q⊕LieF2(Q), with Lie bracket
⟨(ν,x),(ν′,x′)⟩=νD(x′)−ν′D(x)+Dx(x′)−Dx′(x)−[x,x′]; gB is the
Lie subalgebra LieF2(Q).
(c) gtop is the subspace of gB defined
by relations (5.5) to (5.7) in [D].
For (ν,x)∈gB, set
[TABLE]
Then der(ν,x)V,(1),B restricts to an endomorphism
der(ν,x)W,(1),B∈EndQ(W^QB), and der(ν,x)V,(10),B
induces an endomorphism der(ν,x)M,(10),B∈EndQ(M^QB).
For x∈LieF2(Q), set
[TABLE]
and for (ν,x)∈gB, set

Lemma 3.17**.**
(a) gquadB, dmr??B and
stab(Δ^???,B) are complete Lie subalgebras of gB.
(b) gquadB={(ν,x)∈gB∣(x∣logX0)=(x∣logX1)=0,ν=12(x∣logX0logX1)}.
(c) stab(Δ^W,B) is the set of elements (ν,x)∈gB
such that (Γder(ν,x)W,(1),B⊗id+id⊗Γder(ν,x)W,(1),B)∘Δ^QW,B=Δ^QW,B∘ Γder(ν,x)W,(1),B (equality in
HomQ(W^QB,(WQB)⊗2,∧)).
(d) stab(Δ^M,B) is the set of elements (ν,x)∈gB such that
(Γder(ν,x)M,(10),B⊗id+id⊗Γder(ν,x)M,(10),B)∘Δ^QM,B=Δ^QM,B∘ Γder(ν,x)M,(10),B (equality in
HomQ(M^QB,(MQB)⊗2,∧)).
(e) dmrB=gquadB∩stab(Δ^M,B) and dmr0B=g0B∩gquadB∩stab(Δ^M,B).
Proof.
(b), (c), (d) are obtained by linearization. (e) follows from the equalities DMRB(k)=GquadB(k)∩Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k) and
DMR0B(k)=DMRB(k)∩(G(V^B),⊛)
(see Lemmas 3.10, 3.12). (a) follows from (b)-(e). ∎
Remark 3.18**.**
The endomorphisms der(ν,x)?, Γder(ν,x)?? are Lie
algebraic analogues of the automorphisms aut(μ,g)?, Γaut(μ,g)??,
where ? (resp. ??) takes the values (X,B,α), with (X,α) in {(V,(1)),(V,(10)),(W,(1)),(M,(10))} (resp. in {(W,(1)),(M,(10))}), in particular, any of the maps taking
(ν,x) to one of these endomorphisms is a representation of gB.
Corollary 3.19**.**
The following inclusions between Lie subalgebras of gB hold:
(a) gtop⊂dmrB,
(b) stab(Δ^M,B)⊂stab(Δ^W,B).
Proof.
This follows directly from Theorem 3.14. ∎
3.9. Relation with Hopf algebra and coalgebra isomorphism bitorsors
Recall that a module-coalgebra over a (topological) k-Hopf algebra (W,ΔW) is a coassociative counital (topological)
k-coalgebra (M,ΔM), equipped with a map W⊗M→M which both defines an action of W (viewed as an associative
k-algebra) on M (viewed as a k-module) and a morphism of counital k-coalgebras (W⊗M being equipped
with the tensor product coalgebra structure). Denote by k-HAMC the category of pairs ((W,ΔW),(M,ΔM))
of a k-Hopf algebra and a module-coalgebra over it. It fits in a commutative diagram of forgetful functors
[TABLE]
where k-Hopf (resp. k-coalg, k-mod) is the category of k-Hopf algebras (resp. k-coalgebras,
k-modules), in which the vertical functors are faithful. A pair of isomorphic objects
in k-HAMC then induces a commutative diagram of isomorphism bitorsors, where the vertical maps are bitorsor inclusions.
If C is a category and ω↦Xω is a map {B,DR}→Ob(C), let us denote by
IsoC(XDR/B) the bitorsor of isomorphisms IsoC(XB,XDR). If Xω is given by
a tuple (Aω,Bω,…), we set (A,B,…)ω:=(Aω,Bω,…).
Lemma 3.20**.**
Let ((Wω,ΔWω),(Mω,ΔMω)), ω∈{B,DR} be a pair of isomorphic objects in
k-HAMC such that MB is free of rank one over WB with generator 1MB and such that
ΔMB(1MB)∈((WB)⊗2)×⋅(1MB)⊗2. Then
the commutative diagram of bitorsors
[TABLE]
induced by the left square of (3.9.1) is Cartesian (see Definition 1.3).
Proof.
The argument follows that of [EF2], §3.4.
Let (cW,cM)∈Isok-alg−mod((W,M)DR/B) be such that cM∈Isok-coalg((M,ΔM)DR/B). Then for w∈WB,
[TABLE]
by the various axioms. Then cM⊗2(ΔMB(1MB))∈cM⊗2(((WB)⊗2)×⋅(1MB)⊗2)=cW⊗2(((WB)⊗2)×)⋅cM(1MB)⊗2⊂((WDR)⊗2)×⋅cM(1MB)⊗2
and which together with the fact that cM(1MB) is a generator of MDR as a free WDR-module implies
cW⊗2(ΔWB(w))=ΔWDR(cW(w)) therefore
therefore cW⊗2∘ΔWB∘cW−1=ΔWDR.
It follows that the Hopf algebra structure on WB pulled back from the Hopf algebra structure of WDR has coproduct ΔWB.
The uniqueness of the counit in a coalgebra in a symmetric monoidal category (proved by dualyzing the standard argument proving the
uniqueness of the unit in an algebra) and of the antipode in a bialgebra in such a category (based on the argument of [Sw], p. 71)
then imply that the pull-back on WB of the Hopf algebra structure of WDR is the Hopf algebra structure of WB, therefore
cW∈Isok-Hopf(WDR/B) so
(cW,cM)∈Isok-HAMC(((W,ΔW),(M,ΔM))DR/B).
∎
Lemma 3.21**.**
(a) For ω∈{B,DR}, ((W^ω,ΔW,ω),(M^ω,ΔM,ω)) is an
object in k-HAMC.
(b) The map (μ,Φ)↦(Γcomp(μ,Φ)W,(1),Γcomp(μ,Φ)M,(10))
defines a bitorsor morphism GDR,B(k)→Isok-alg−mod((W^,M^)DR/B). Its composition with the bitorsor morphism to
Isok-alg(W^DR/B) (resp.
Isok-mod(M^DR/B)) is
(μ,Φ)↦ Γcomp(μ,Φ)M,(1).
Proof.
The ω=DR part of (a) follows from §§1.1 and 1.2 in [EF1], and its ω=B part follows from
§§2.1 and 2.4 in loc. cit. (b) follows from [EF2], Lemmas 1.21 to 1.24.
∎
Lemma 3.21 leads to a diagram of bitorsors
[TABLE]
which, by denoting each of the bitorsors Isok-C(XDR/B) of (3.9.2)
by TC leads to a diagram of preimage subbitorsors of GDR,B(k):
[TABLE]
Lemma 3.22**.**
(a) The subbitorsor GDR,B(k)×TmodTcoalg of GDR,B(k) coincides with
Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)(k).
(b) The subbitorsor GDR,B(k)×TalgTHopf
of GDR,B(k) coincides with
Stab(Δ^W,DR/B)(k).
(c) The subbitorsors GDR,B(k)×TmodTcoalg and
GDR,B(k)×Talg-modTHAMC
of GDR,B(k) are equal.
Proof.
(a) Let (μ,Φ)∈GDR,B(k). Then (μ,Φ)∈GDR,B(k)×TmodTcoalg iff
Γcomp(μ,Φ)M,(10):(M^B,Δ^M,B)→(M^DR,Δ^M,DR) is a coalgebra isomorphism. This implies the equality
(Γcomp(μ,Φ)M,(10))⊗2∘Δ^M,B∘(Γcomp(μ,Φ)M,(10))−1=Δ^M,DR.
Therefore (μ,Φ)∈Stab(Δ^M,DR/B).
Conversely, if (μ,Φ)∈Stab(Δ^M,DR/B), then the counital coalgebra structure on
M^B pulled back from that of M^DR has coproduct Δ^M,B.
By the uniqueness of the counit in a coalgebra, the counit of the pulled back coalgebra structure necessarily coincides with that of
M^B, therefore Γcomp(μ,Φ)M,(10) is a coalgebra isomorphism, so that
(μ,Φ)∈GDR,B(k)×TmodTcoalg.
(b) The proof is similar to (a), using in addition to the uniqueness of the counit in a coalgebra, the uniqueness of the antipode in a
bialgebra (see the argument of Lemma 3.20).
(c) Let (μ,Φ)∈GDR,B(k). Then (μ,Φ)∈GDR,B(k)×Talg-modTHAMC iff
(Γcomp(μ,Φ)W,(1),Γcomp(μ,Φ)M,(10))
belongs to THAMC. By Lemma 3.20, this condition is equivalent to
the conjunction of
[TABLE]
and Γcomp(μ,Φ)W,(1)∈THopf.
Since (Γcomp(μ,Φ)W,(1),Γcomp(μ,Φ)M,(10)) belongs to
Talg-mod, this conjunction is equivalent to Γcomp(μ,Φ)W,(1)∈THopf,
i.e. (μ,Φ)∈GDR,B(k)×TalgTHopf.
∎
The combination of Lemma 3.22 and (3.9.3) then enables one to recover the
inclusion Stab(Δ^M,DR/B)⊂Stab(Δ^W,DR/B) of subbitorsors of
GDR,B(k) (see Theorem 3.14).
One the other hand, it follows from Lemma 3.22 (a), (b) that the bitorsor inclusion
M(k)⊂Stab(Δ^M,DR)(k) (see Theorem 3.14), which
essentially relies on the geometric interpretation of ΔM,DR (see [EF1]), is equivalent to the existence
of a bitorsor morphism M(k)→Isok-HAMC(((W^,Δ^W),(M^,Δ^M))DR/B) such that the
diagram
[TABLE]
commutes.
4. Equivalent definitions of DMRB(k) and its Lie algebra
In this section, we prove that the group DMRB(k)
can be given by a definition, alternative to Lemma-Definition 3.10 (§4.1,
Theorem 4.5). This result should be viewed as a ‘Betti’ counterpart to
[EF0], Theorem 1.2 and [EF2], Lemma 3.8. In §4.2, we draw the Lie algebraic
consequence of this result, which is a counterpart of [EF0], Theorem 3.1 and
[EF2], Corollary 3.12, (b).
4.1. Equivalent definition of DMRB(k)
The following results are analogues of Lemmas 1.17 and 3.5 from [EF2].
Lemma 4.1**.**
The map (μ,g)↦ Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),B exhibits the following compatibility
with the map (λ,φ)↦ Γcomp(λ,φ)M,(10) and with the
right action of GB(k) on GDR(k) (see Definition 2.12): for
(λ,φ)∈GDR(k) and (μ,g)∈GB(k), one has
Γcomp(λ,φ)⊛isoG(μ,g)M,(10)= Γcomp(λ,φ)M,(10)∘ Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),B.
Proof.
One combines the identity Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),B=(isoM)−1∘ ΓautisoG(μ,g)M,(10),DR∘isoM with the identity (1.7.2) from the proof of Lemma 1.17 in [EF2] and with the group
morphism property of the map (GDR(k),⊛)→Autk-mod(M^DR), (μ,g)↦ Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),DR proved there.
Lemma 4.2**.**
Let (μ,g)∈GB(k), then
Γaut(μ,g)M,(10),B(1B)=(Γg(−logX1)−1⋅g)⋅1B.
Proof.
One has Γaut(μ,g)V,(10),B(1B)=g
by (2.1.2), which by Lemma-Definition 2.5 implies
aut(μ,g)M,(10),B(1B)=g⋅1B. Then
Lemma-Definition 2.9 implies the result. ∎
Lemma 4.3**.**
Let (λ,φ)∈M(k). If (μ,g)∈GB(k), then the topological k-module
isomorphism
Γcomp(λ,φ)M,(10):M^B→M^DR takes
(Γg−1(−logX1)⋅g)⋅1B to (Γφ⊛(λ∙isoG(g))−1(−e1)⋅(φ⊛(λ∙isoG(g))))⋅1DR (with the notation as in [EF2], §1.6).
Proof.
One has
[TABLE]
where the first equality follows from applying Lemma 3.5 from [EF2] to (λ,φ)⊛isoG(μ,g)=(λμ,φ⊛(λ∙isoG(g))) (see [EF2], (1.6.2)),
the second equality follows from applying Lemma 4.1 to 1B, and the third one follows from applying
Lemma 4.2 to (μ,g). ∎
Lemma 4.4**.**
Let (λ,φ)∈M(k). The topological k-module isomorphism
Γcomp(λ,φ)M,(10):M^B→∼M^DR restricts to a bijection G(M^B)→∼G(M^DR), where G denotes the group-like parts of M^B
(resp. M^DR) for Δ^M,B (resp. Δ^M,DR).
Proof.
This follows from the fact that Γcomp(λ,φ)M,(10)
intertwines Δ^M,B and Δ^M,DR, see [EF1],
Theorem 3.1 (a), (b) and Definition 2.17. ∎
Theorem 4.5**.**
DMRB(k)* is equal to the set of GB(k) of pairs (μ,g) satisfying the following conditions:*
(1)* (Γg−1(−logX1)⋅g)⋅1B∈G(M^B), where Γg is
as in Definition 2.6;*
(2)* (g∣logX0)=(g∣logX1)=0, μ2=1+24(g∣logX0logX1).*
Proof.
It follows from [D], Proposition 5.3 that M1(Q)=M(Q)∩({1}×G(V^DR)) is nonempty. Let us denote by (1,φ)∈M(k) the image
of an element of M1(Q). Then, by [EF2], Theorem 3.1 (a),
(1,φ)∈DMRDR,B(k).
Let (μ,g)∈GB(k). The right torsor property of DMRDR,B(k) under the action of
DMRB(k) as in Definition 2.12 (see Lemma 3.11) implies the equivalence
[TABLE]
the equality (1,φ)⊛isoG(μ,g)=(μ,φ⊛isoG(g))
(see [EF2], (1.6.2)) and [EF2], Definition 2.12 implies the equivalence
[TABLE]
where (a), (b) are the following statements:
(a) (Γφ⊛isoG(g)−1(−e1)⋅(φ⊛isoG(g)))⋅1DR∈G(M^DR)
(b) (1,φ)⊛isoG(μ,g)∈GquadDR,B(k).
The fact that GquadDR,B(k)GquadB(k)
is a subtorsor of the right torsor GDR(k)GB(k) and the
inclusions (1,φ)∈DMRDR,B(k)⊂GquadDR,B(k) imply the equivalence
[TABLE]
Lemmas 4.3 and 4.4 imply the equivalence
[TABLE]
The above equivalences combine into (g∈DMRB(k))⟺[((μ,g)∈GquadB(k)) and (Γg−1(−e1)⋅g)⋅1B∈G(M^B)], which by Definition 3.1 yields the announced equivalence.
∎
Remark 4.6**.**
Be [EF1] Lemma 9.5 and Remark 9.6, we have
[TABLE]
for (μ,φ)∈DMRDR,B(k).
While for (μ′,φ′):=(μ,φ)⋅(λ,g)∈DMRDR,B(k)
with (μ,φ)∈DMRDR,B(k) and
(λ,g)∈DMRB(k),
we have μ′=μλ and
(φ′∣e0k−1e1)=(φ∣e0k−1e1)+μk(g∣(logX0)k−1(logX1)).
Hence we have
Γφ′(t)Γφ′(−t)=Γφ(t)Γg(μt)Γφ(−t)Γg(−μt),
from which we learn that
[TABLE]
for any (λ,g)∈DMRB(k).
Remark 4.7**.**
Theorem 4.5 should be related to the following set of results. In [R], it is proved
that a subset of GDR(k) defined by de Rham analogues of conditions (1) and (2) of
Theorem 4.5 is a subgroup. This result
is used in [EF0] to prove the equality of this subset with a stabilizer subgroup of GDR(k)
(up to degree ≤2 conditions). Theorem 4.5, based
on [EF0], is the Betti counterpart of this result; it implies in particular the Betti analogue of
the result of [R], namely that that the subset of GB(k) defined by
conditions (1) and (2) in Theorem 4.5 is a subgroup. Whereas the proof of this result is based
on those of [EF0, R], the authors do not know of a proof independent of these results.
4.2. Equivalent definition of dmrB
For x∈LieF2(Q), set
[TABLE]
Proposition 4.8**.**
dmrB={(ν,x)∈gB∣(x∣logX0)=(x∣logX1)=0,
ν=12(x∣logX0logX1), (x+γx(−logX1))⋅1B∈P(M^QB)}, where
P(M^QB):={m∈M^QB∣Δ^M,B(m)=m⊗1B+1B⊗m}.
Proof.
This follows from the combination of Theorem 4.5 and the identification of dmrB with the
kernel of the group morphism DMRB(Q[ϵ]/(ϵ2))→DMRB(Q).
∎
5. A discrete group DMRB
In §5.1, we define a discrete group DMRB, which is an analogue of the discrete counterpart
GT of the group scheme GT(−), and we compute it in §5.2
(see Proposition 5.10).
5.1. Definition of DMRB
Recall the group inclusions
[TABLE]
The last of these groups contains the semigroup {±1}⋉F2.
Then GT:=GT(Q)∩({±1}⋉F2)op is a semigroup
(see [D], §4), equal to {±1} (see [D], Proposition 4.1).
Define similarly a semigroup
[TABLE]
5.2. Computation of DMRB
Let evV:VQB→QF1 be the algebra morphism induced by
X0↦1, X1↦X (QF1 being the algebra of the free group
F1 with one generator X). Since it takes X0−1 to [math], it induces a
module morphism evM:MQB→QF1 compatible with
the algebra morphism evV. We denote by evW:WQB→QF1 the restriction of evV to
WQB.
Then evM is also compatible with the algebra morphism evW.
Lemma 5.1**.**
(a) evW is a Hopf algebra morphism, its source being equipped with ΔW,B
and its target with the group Hopf algebra structure.
(b) evM is a coalgebra morphism, its source being equipped with ΔM,B
and its target with the same structure as above.
Proof.
By [EF1], Propositions 2.3 and 2.4, WQB is generated by the elements
Yn± (n>0), X1±1, where Yn±:=(X0±1−1)n−1X0±1(1−X1±1);
evW is such that X1±1↦X±1, Yn±↦0 and the
coproducts are such that X1±1↦X1±1⊗X1±1, Yn±↦Yn±⊗1+1⊗Yn±+∑n′+n′′=nYn′±⊗Yn′′± and
X±1↦X±1⊗X±1; all this implies (a). (a) implies the
commutativity of the right square in
[TABLE]
where ΔQF1 is the coproduct of QF1, while the commutativity of the left square
follows from the definition of ΔM,B. (b) then follows from the combination of these squares, and the
fact that (−)⋅1B is a Q-vector space isomorphism. ∎
Since evV is the algebra morphism underlying a group morphism F2→F1, it
induces an algebra morphism evV,∧:V^QB→(QF1)∧. It follows that the morphisms evX, X∈{W,M} induce morphisms evX,∧ between the completions of their
sources and targets. We denote by iso:(QF1)∧→Q[[t]] the isomorphism of
topological Hopf algebras induced by X↦et.
Lemma 5.2**.**
If g∈F2 is such that (Γg−1(−logX1)g)⋅1B∈G(M^QB),
then there exists λ∈Q such that Γg(t)=eλt and g⋅1B∈G(MQB).
Proof.
There exists a unique collection n,(ai)i∈[1,n],(bi)i∈[1,n],α,β, where n≥0, the ai,bi
are nonzero integers, and α,β are integers, such that
[TABLE]
where ∏i=1ngi:=g1⋯gn. One computes
[TABLE]
Then evW(a)=evV(a)=Xα+b1+⋯+bn.
Since evM(g⋅1B)=evW(a), one obtains
iso∘evM(g⋅1B)=e(α+b1+⋯+bn)t.
Then
[TABLE]
Since iso∘evM takes G(M^QB)
to the set G(Q[[t]]) of group-like elements of Q[[t]],
Γg−1(−t)⋅et(α+b1+⋯+bn)∈G(Q[[t]]),
and therefore Γg−1(−t)∈G(Q[[t]]), so that there exists
λ∈Q such that Γg(t)=eλt.
Using the fact that eλ⋅logX1∈W^QB
is group-like with respect to Δ^W,B, the module property of
Δ^M,B with respect to Δ^W,B and
(Γg−1(−logX1)g)⋅1B∈G(M^QB),
we obtain g⋅1B∈G(M^QB), therefore
g⋅1B∈G(MQB) as g⋅1B∈MQB.
∎
Set for a∈Z, Ya:=X0a(X1−1). One derives from [EF1], Proposition 2.3, that the algebra
WQB is presented by generators (Ya)a∈Z−{0}, X1±1
and relations X1⋅X1−1=X1−1⋅X1=1. It follows that WQB
admits an algebra grading, for which deg(Ya)=1 for a∈Z−{0} and
deg(X1±1)=0. For n≥0, we denote by Wn the part of
WQB of degree n. Then
[TABLE]
We also set W≤n:=⊕m≤nWm.
Lemma 5.3**.**
One has for any a>1,
[TABLE]
Proof.
As remarked in [EF1], proof of Proposition 2.4, the formal series s±(t):=1+∑k≥1Yk±tk are
group-like for Δ^W,B. Then
[TABLE]
where u:=t/(1+t) and s~±(u):=(1−uX0±1)−1(1−uX0±1X1±1). It follows that the series
s~±(u) are group-like. The expansions s~±(u)=1+∑k≥1ukX0±k(1−X1±1) imply s~+(u)=1−∑k≥1ukYk, which implies
the first part of (5.2.1), and s~−(u)=1+∑k≥1ukY−kX1−1, which together with the
group-likeness of X1, implies its second part.
∎
Remark 5.4**.**
One can show that (5.2.1) remains valid for any a∈Z
under the summation convention of [EF1], (2.4.9).
Lemma 5.5**.**
The coproduct ΔW,B:WQB→(WQB)⊗2
is such that ΔW,B(W≤n)⊂(W≤n)⊗2.
Proof.
This follows that the equalities ΔW,B(X1±1)=X1±1⊗X1±1 and
(5.2.1)
for any a>0 (see [EF1], Proposition 2.4). ∎
Lemma 5.6**.**
There is an algebra morphism ΔmodW,B:WQB→(WQB)⊗2, defined by X1±1↦X1±1⊗X1±1
and Y±a↦∓∑a′=1a−1Y±a′⊗Y±(a−a′) for a>0. Then
ΔmodW,B(Wn)⊂Wn⊗2 and the diagram
[TABLE]
commutes, where prn:W≤n→Wn is the projection on the highest degree component.
Proof.
Immediate. ∎
For a1,…,an∈Z−{0}, set
[TABLE]
Lemma 5.7**.**
[TABLE]
Proof.
This follows from the presentation of WQB.
∎
For a∈Z−{0}, set S(a):={(a′,a′′)∈Z−{0}∣sgn(a′)=sgn(a′′)=sgn(a) and
a′+a′′=a}.
Lemma 5.8**.**
For a1,…,an∈Z−{0}, one has
[TABLE]
Proof.
This follows from (5.2.1). ∎
Lemma 5.9**.**
Let g∈F2. Then g⋅1B∈G(MQB)
iff there exist α,β∈Z, such that g=X1αX0β.
Proof.
The group Z2 acts on the set F2 by (α,β)∙g:=X1αgX0β.
For n≥0, set
[TABLE]
Then the composition
[TABLE]
is a bijection.
Set S:={g∈F2∣g⋅1B∈G(MQB)}. One checks that S is stable
under the action of Z2. It follows that
[TABLE]
One has
[TABLE]
We now compute (F2)n∩S for n>0.
Let g∈(F2)n. Let a1,b1,…,an,bn∈Z−{0} be such that
g=X0a1X1b1⋯X0anX1bn and set
[TABLE]
The summand in the right-hand side of (5.2.5) corresponding to index i belongs to W≤i
and 1∈W0. It follows that
w(g)∈W≤n and that
[TABLE]
Moreover the elements X0a1X1b1⋯X0an(X1bn−1) and X0a1(X1b1−1)⋯X0an(X1bn−1) of W≤n are equivalent mod W≤n−1. All this implies that
[TABLE]
where for b∈Z−{0}, we set φb(t):=(tb−1)/(t−1)∈Z[t,t−1].
(5.2.6) and the fact that for b=0, φb=0 implies that
[TABLE]
Assume now that g∈(F2)n∩S. One has g⋅1B=w(g)⋅1B, therefore g⋅1B∈G(MQB) is equivalent to the group-likeness of w(g)∈WQB
for ΔW,B. Since w(g)∈W≤n, the diagram (5.2.2) implies
[TABLE]
(equality in Wn⊗2).
By Lemma 5.8, the left-hand side of (5.2.8) belongs to
[TABLE]
while the right-hand side belongs to
[TABLE]
By the direct sum decomposition
[TABLE]
and since ((a1,a1),…,(an,an))∈/S(a1)×⋯×S(an) (as (a,a)∈/S(a) for any a=0),
both sides of (5.2.8) should be zero, which contradicts (5.2.7). All this implies that
(F2)n∩S=∅ for n>0. Together with (5.2.3) and (5.2.4), this implies
Lemma 5.9. ∎
Proposition 5.10**.**
There is an isomorphism DMRB≃{±1}.
Proof.
One obviously has {(±1,1)}⊂DMRB. Let us prove the opposite inclusion.
Let
[TABLE]
By Lemmas 5.2 and 5.9, the condition that
Γg−1(−logX1)g⋅1B∈G(M^QB)
implies that for some α,β∈Z, one has
g=X1αX0β. The conditions (g∣logX0)=(g∣logX1)=0
then imply α=β=0, therefore g=1. This proves Proposition 5.10.
∎
Remark 5.11**.**
Using the proof of Proposition 5.10, one can prove the stronger result
DMRB(Q)∩(Q××F2)={±1}.
Indeed, this proof implies that if (μ,g) belongs to this intersection, then
g=1. The condition μ2=1+24(g∣logX0logX1)
then implies that μ=±1.
Remark 5.12**.**
Proposition 5.10 is consistent with the conjectural equality of Lie algebras
grt1=dmr0. Indeed, this equality is equivalent to DMRDR(−)=GRT(−),
which via the isomorphism i(1,Φ), Φ∈M1(Q) is
equivalent to DMRB(−)=GT(−), which upon taking rational points and intersecting with {±1}×F2
implies the equality DMRB=GT, which is Proposition 5.10.
6. Pro-p aspects
In this section, we first recall some material on the relation between the pro-p and prounipotent completions of
discrete groups (§6.1), p being a prime number. In §6.2, we recall the definition of the pro-p
analogue GTp of the Grothendieck-Teichmüller group, and we use the results of
§6.1 to prove a statement of [D] on the relations of GTp
with GT(Qp) (Corollary 6.14); we also make precise the relation between
GTp and the semigroup GTp introduced in [D] (Proposition 6.15).
We then define a group DMRpB (see Definition 6.16) and show that it fits in a commutative diagram,
which makes it into a natural pro-p analogue of the group scheme DMRB(−) (§6.3).
6.1. Pro-p and prounipotent completions of discrete groups
6.1.1. A morphism Γ(p)→Γ(Qp)
If Γ is a group, we denote by Γ(p) its pro-p completion. If k is a Q-algebra,
we denote by Γ(k) the group of k-points of its prounipotent completion. We also denote by
Lie(Γ) the Lie algebra of this prounipotent completion.
Lemma 6.1** ([HM], Lemma A.7).**
Suppose that Γ is finitely generated discrete group, then there is a continuous homomorphism
Γ(p)→Γ(Qp) compatible with the morphisms from Γ to its source and target.
When Γ is the free group Fn, this gives
a continuous homomorphism Fn(p)→Fn(Qp).
6.1.2. Injectivity of Fn(p)→Fn(Qp)
Let Γ be a group. Define the Zp-algebra of Γ, denoted
Zp[[Γ]], to be the inverse limit of the group algebras of
the quotients of Γ which are p-groups with coefficients in
Zp. This is a topological Hopf algebra.
(When Γ is a pro-p group, Zp[[Γ]] coincides with the object introduced in
[Se], p. 7.)
If H is a (topological) Hopf algebra, we denote by
G(H) the group of its group-like elements.
Lemma 6.2**.**
The group G(Zp[[Γ]]) is equal to Γ(p).
Proof.
The group G(Zp[[Γ]]) is
the inverse limit of the groups of group-like elements
of the group algebras ZpK, where
K runs over all the quotients of Γ which are p-groups. As
G(ZpK) is equal to K,
G(Zp[[Γ]]) is equal to the inverse
limit of the finite quotients of Γ which are p-groups, therefore to Γ(p).
∎
Lemma 6.3**.**
Let A(n):=Zp⟨⟨t1,…,tn⟩⟩
be the algebra of associative formal power series
in variables t1,…,tn with coefficients in
Zp, equipped with the topology of convergence
of coefficients. Then A(n) has a Hopf algebra structure
with coproduct given by ti↦ti⊗1+1⊗ti+ti⊗ti
for i=1,…,n. Let Fn be the free group over
generators X1,…,Xn. There is an isomorphism
[TABLE]
induced by Xi↦1+ti for i=1,…,n.
Proof.
This follows from Lemma 6.2
combined with the isomorphism Zp[[Fn(p)]]≃A(n), see [Se], §I.1.5. Proposition 7.
∎
Lemma 6.4**.**
The map Fn(p)→Fn(Qp) is injective.
Proof.
If k is a Q-algebra, there is
an isomorphism (kFn)∧≃k⟨⟨u1,…,un⟩⟩, where each ui is primitive.
Moreover, Fn(k)=G((kFn)∧),
therefore
[TABLE]
The result now follows from the specialization of this result
for k=Qp, from the topological Hopf algebra
inclusion Zp⟨⟨t1,…,tn⟩⟩⊂Qp⟨⟨u1,…,un⟩⟩ given by ti↦eui−1, and from Lemma
6.3. ∎
6.1.3. Exact sequences of pro-p completions
Lemma 6.5** ([I], see also [Andn]).**
Let 1→N→G→H→1 be an
exact sequence of discrete groups such that (i)
(G,N)=(N,N), and (ii)
N is a free group of finite rank greater than 1. Then the induced sequence of pro-p
completions 1→N(p)→G(p)→H(p)→1
is exact.
For n≥3, let Kn be the Artin pure braid group with n strands. It is presented by generators
xij, 1≤i<j≤n and relations
[TABLE]
[TABLE]
For any i∈[[1,n]], the elements xi1,…,xin of Kn generate a subgroup
isomorphic to Fn−1, and we have an exact sequence
[TABLE]
Lemma 6.6**.**
If n≥3, then the exact sequence (6.1.1) induces a short exact sequence of pro-p groups:
[TABLE]
Proof.
Let Pn+1 be the pure sphere group of the sphere with n+1 marked points (cf. [EF1]).
It is known that Pn+1 is isomorphic to the quotient Kn/Z(Kn)2, where Z(Kn)
is the center of Kn.
In [I], Proposition 2.3.1, it is shown that for any j∈[[1,n]]∖{i},
Pn+1 is equal to the product
⟨xˉ1i,…,xˉin⟩⋅C(xˉij), where
the projection map Kn→Pn+1 is denoted g↦gˉ, and where
C(xˉij) is the centralizer subgroup of xˉij.
Since Z(Kn)2 is contained in C(xij), Kn is equal to the product ⟨x1i,…,xin⟩⋅C(xij), where C(xij) is the centralizer subgroup of xij.
Then any k∈Kn can be expressed as f⋅c, where f∈⟨x1i,…,xin⟩ and c∈C(xij).
Then (k,xij)=(f⋅c,xij)=(f,xij)∈(Fn−1,Fn−1). As this holds for any j∈[[1,n]]∖{i},
one obtains (Kn,Fn−1)⊂(Fn−1,Fn−1), therefore the equality of these subgroups of Kn as the opposite inclusion
is obvious.
One can therefore apply Lemma 6.5 to the exact sequence (6.1.1), which yields the result.
∎
6.1.4. Exact sequences of prounipotent completions
Lemma 6.7**.**
Let k be a Q-algebra and let n≥3.
The exact sequence (6.1.1) induces a short exact sequence of groups:
[TABLE]
Proof.
According to [D], any associator Φ∈M1(Q) and
parenthesization P of a word with n identical letters gives rise to an isomorphism
bΦP:Lie(Kn)→t^n, where tn is the graded Q-Lie
algebra with degree one generators tij, i=j∈[[1,n]] and relations tji=tij,
[tik+tjk,tij]=0, and [tij,tkl]=0 for i,j,k,l all distinct, and where t^n
is its degree completion.
The morphisms of (6.1.1) induce Lie algebra morphisms Lie(Fn−1)→Lie(Kn) and
Lie(Kn)→Lie(Kn−1). One has a commutative diagram
[TABLE]
where Pi is P with the i-th letter erased, and where the right vertical arrow is induced by the
morphism tn→tn−1, tia↦0, tab↦tf(a)f(b)
for a,b∈[[1,n]]−{i}, f being the increasing bijection [[1,n]]−{i}≃[[1,n−1]].
It follows from this diagram that bΦP restricts to a Lie algebra morphism Lie(Fn−1)→f^n−1,
where f^n−1 is the kernel of t^n→t^n−1, which is the
degree completion of the kernel of tn→tn−1, a Lie algebra freely generated by the
tij, j∈[[1,n]]−{i}. The abelianization of this morphism can be shown to be an isomorphism, therefore
Lie(Fn−1)→f^n−1 is an isomorphism.
In the following diagram
[TABLE]
the top sequence is exact. Since the vertical arrows are isomorphisms
and since the squares commute, it follows that the bottom sequence is exact. The result follows.
∎
6.1.5. Injectivity of Kn(p)→Kn(Qp)
Lemma 6.8**.**
For any n≥2, the map Kn(p)→Kn(Qp) is injective.
Proof.
The statement is obvious for n=2 as K2≃Z.
One then proceeds by induction over n. Assume that the statement holds for n−1, then
we have a natural morphism between two exact sequences,
which makes the following diagram commutative
[TABLE]
The leftmost vertical map is injective by Lemma 6.4 and the rightmost vertical map is as well
by the induction assumption, which shows that the middle vertical map is injective.
∎
6.2. Results on GTp
Let F2 be the free group with generators X0,X1 (see §2.1.1).
A semigroup structure is defined on Zp×F2(p) by (λ1,f1)⊛(λ2,f2)=(λ1λ2,f), where
[TABLE]
(this is the opposite of the product of [D], (4.11), with X0,X1 replacing X,Y).
Lemma 6.9**.**
(Zp××F2(p),⊛)* is a subgroup of (GB(Qp),⊛)
(see Lemma 2.1).*
Proof.
Recall the subsets F2(Qp)=G(Qp⟨⟨t0,t1⟩⟩)
and 1+Zp⟨⟨t0,t1⟩⟩0 of Qp⟨⟨t0,t1⟩⟩×.
By Lemma 6.3, one has
[TABLE]
therefore
[TABLE]
Then Qp××Qp⟨⟨t0,t1⟩⟩× is equipped with the group structure
[TABLE]
and Qp××G(Qp⟨⟨t0,t1⟩⟩ is then a subgroup,
which identifies with GB(Qp) under the identifications Xi=1+ti, i=0,1.
Zp××(1+Zp⟨⟨t0,t1⟩⟩0) is a sub-semigroup of
(Qp××Qp⟨⟨t0,t1⟩⟩×,⊛).
Let (μ,b)∈Zp××(1+Zp⟨⟨t0,t1⟩⟩0) and let
(1/μ,a)∈Qp××Qp⟨⟨t0,t1⟩⟩× be its inverse. One has then
[TABLE]
One shows by induction on n that
[TABLE]
For n=0, this follows from (6.2.1). Assume that (6.2.2) holds for n. Then
[TABLE]
(6.2.1) then implies (6.2.2) with n replaced by n+1. Finally a∈1+Zp⟨⟨t0,t1⟩⟩0.
It follows that
Zp××(1+Zp⟨⟨t0,t1⟩⟩0) is a subgroup of the group
(Qp××Qp⟨⟨t0,t1⟩⟩×,⊛).
It follows that Zp××F2(p) is the intersection of two subgroups of this group,
which implies the result.
∎
Lemma 6.10**.**
The subgroup of invertible elements of (Zp×F2(p),⊛) is Zp××F2(p).
Proof.
This follows from Lemma 6.9.
∎
Consider the morphisms from F2 to various groups given by the
following table:
[TABLE]
The pro-p completions of these morphisms are denoted in the same way.
In [D], p. 846, GTp is defined as the set of all (λ,f)∈(1+2Zp)×F2(p)
such that
[TABLE]
where m=(λ−1)/2 (equalities in F2(p) and K4(p)) and GT(Qp) is the set of all
(λ,f)∈Qp××F2(Qp) such that the same identities hold in F2(Qp)
and K4(Qp).
The subset GTp⊂Zp×F2(p) is shown to be a sub-semigroup; it is equipped
with the structure opposite to that induced by Zp×F2(p). The group GTp⊂GTp is then defined to be the group
of invertible elements in GTp.
Corollary 6.11**.**
GTp=GTp∩(Zp××F2(p)).
Proof.
This follows from Lemma 6.10 and the definition of GTp.
∎
Proposition 6.12**.**
GTp=GT(Qp)∩(Zp××F2(p)).
Proof.
GT(Qp) is the subset of Qp××F2(Qp)
defined by the prounipotent versions of the conditions (6.2.3), while GTp
is the subset of ((1+2Zp)∩Zp×)×F2(p)=Zp××F2(p)
defined by the pro-p versions of the same conditions (the equality follows from 1+2Zp=Zp× for p=2, and
1+2Zp=Zp for p=2).
Moreover, the inclusion K4(p)⊂K4(Qp) and the compatibilities of the pro-p and prounipotent
completions of a given group morphism imply that an element of Zp××F2(p) satisfies the
pro-p version of (6.2.3) iff its image in Qp××F2(Qp)
satisfies its prounipotent version.
∎
Remark 6.13**.**
Proposition 6.12 shows that GTp is the intersection of two subgroups of
GB(Qp)op, and is therefore a group.
Corollary 6.14** ([D], p. 846).**
GTp⊂GT(Qp).
Proof.
This immediately follows from Proposition 6.12.
∎
Proposition 6.15**.**
GTp=GTp* for p=2 and GTp=GTp×ZpZp× for p>2.*
Proof.
This follows from Corollary 6.11 together with 1+2Zp=Zp× for p=2, and
1+2Zp=Zp for p=2.
∎
6.3. A pro-p analogue DMRpB of the group scheme DMRB(−)
Definition 6.16**.**
One sets
[TABLE]
Lemma 6.17**.**
DMRpB* is a subgroup of GB(Qp)=(Qp××F2(Qp),⊛).*
Proof.
This follows from the fact that both DMRB(Qp) and Zp××F2(p)
are subgroups of (Qp××F2(Qp),⊛). ∎
Proposition 6.18**.**
The natural inclusions yield the following commutative diagram of groups, in which both squares are Cartesian
[TABLE]
Proof.
The fact that the right square is Cartesian follows from the definition of DMRpB. Then
[TABLE]
so that the left square is Cartesian.
