Abstract

We construct a nongeometric pro-p Galois section of a proper hyperbolic curve over a number fi eld, as well as over a p-adic local fi eld. This yields a negative answer to the pro-p version of the anabelian Grothendieck Section Conjecture. We also observe that there exists a proper hyperbolic curve over a number fi eld which admits in finitely many conjugacy classes of pro-p Galois sections.
