Title: Local-global principles for norms and products of norms over semi-global fields
Abstract: A well-known result of Hasse states that the local-global principle holds for norms over number fields for cyclic extensions. In other words, if L/F is a cyclic extension of number fields then an element \lambda \in F^{\times} is in the image of norm map N_{L/F}: L^{\times} \rightarrow F^{\times} if and only if \lambda is in the image of the norm map locally everywhere, i.e., for completions associated to all archimedean and non-archimedean places of F. In this talk, we would discuss local-global principles for norms and product of norms over fields which are function fields of curves over complete discretely valued fields, for example, \mathbb{C}((t))(x).
