Galois cohomology of $p$-adic fields and $(\varphi, \tau)$-modules

Abstract

We construct various explicit Herr complexes that compute the Galois cohomology of a $p$-adic representation of the absolute Galois group of a complete discrete valuation field of characteristic $0$ with a perfect residue field of characteristic $p$, using the associated $(\varphi,\tau)$-modules (defined by Xavier Caruso), instead of $(\varphi,\Gamma)$-modules. We also give an application to $p$-divisible groups.
