| contents | By using unramified cohomology groups, we construct a full sequence of cohomological invariants for hermitian forms of any type (orthogonal, symplectic or unitary) that can be used to detect hyperbolicity. The base central simple algebras can have arbitrary degree and the base field can have arbitrary characteristic. In the orthogonal case, we work with hermitian pairs, and we apply our construction to show that over fields of separable dimension 3, hermitian pairs over quaternion algebras with trivial classical invariants are hyperbolic. This last result extends a result of Berhuy to arbitrary characteristic. |
