Lemma 64.29.1. There is a canonical isomorphism

H_ c^2(X_{\overline{k}}, \mathcal{F}_\rho )=(M)_{\pi _1(X_{\overline{k}}, \overline\eta )}(-1)

as \text{Gal}(k^{^{sep}}/k)-modules.

Proof of Lemma 64.29.1. Let Y\to ^{\varphi }X be the finite étale Galois covering corresponding to \mathop{\mathrm{Ker}}(\rho ) \subset \pi _1(X, \overline\eta ). So

\text{Aut}(Y/X)=Ind(\rho )

is Galois group. Then \varphi ^*\mathcal{F}_\rho =\underline M_ Y and

\varphi _*\varphi ^*\mathcal{F}_\rho \to \mathcal{F}_\rho

which gives

\begin{align*} & H_ c^2(X_{\overline{k}}, \varphi _*\varphi ^*\mathcal{F}_\rho ) \to H_ c^2(X_{\overline{k}}, \mathcal{F}_\rho )\\ & =H_ c^2(Y_{\overline{k}}, \varphi ^*\mathcal{F}_\rho )\\ & =H_ c^2(Y_{\overline{k}}, \underline M) = \oplus _{\text{irred. comp. of } \atop Y_{\overline{k}}}M \end{align*}

\mathop{\mathrm{Im}}(\rho ) \to H_ c^2(Y_{\overline{k}}, \underline M) = \oplus _{\text{irred. comp. of } \atop Y_{\overline{k}}} M \to _{\mathop{\mathrm{Im}}(\rho ) \text{equivalent}} H_ c^2(X_{\overline{k}}, \mathcal{F}_{\rho }) \to ^{\text{trivial } \mathop{\mathrm{Im}}(\rho ) \atop \text{action}}

irreducible curve C/\overline{k}, H_ c^2(C, \underline M)=M.

Since

{\text{set of irreducible } \atop \text{components of }Y_ k} = \frac{Im(\rho )}{Im(\rho |_{\pi _1(X_{\overline{k}}, \overline\eta )})}

We conclude that H_ c^2(X_{\overline{k}}, \mathcal{F}_\rho ) is a quotient of M_{\pi _1(X_{\overline{k}}, \overline\eta )}. On the other hand, there is a surjection

\mathcal{F}_\rho \to \mathcal{F}'' = {\text{ sheaf on } X\text{ associated to } \atop (M)_{\pi _1(X_{\overline{k}}, \overline\eta )}\leftarrow \pi _1(X, \overline\eta )}

H_ c^2(X_{\overline{k}}, \mathcal{F}_\rho )\to M_{\pi _1(X_{\overline{k}}, \overline\eta )}

The twist in Galois action comes from the fact that H_ c^2(X_{\overline{k}}, \mu _ n)=^{\text{can}} \mathbf{Z}/n\mathbf{Z}. \square
