Abstract

We investigate the Galois group GS(p)G_S(p) of the maximal pp-extension unramified outside a finite set SS of primes of a number field in the (tame) case, when no prime dividing pp is in SS. We show that the cohomology of GS(p)G_S(p) is 'often' isomorphic to the étale cohomology of the scheme \Spec(\Ok\smS)\Spec({\O}_k \sm S), in particular, GS(p)G_S(p) is of cohomological dimension 2 then.
