Notes

  1. 1.

    Thanks to Miaofen Chen for pointing out this difficulty, and to J. Riou for suggesting the simple method relying on Lemma 4.7 to deal with it. My initial argument was more complicated.

  2. 2.

    There is a small subtlety here: to imitate the proof for  G finite, we must either use Proposition 4.25, or the slightly weaker fact that an induced \(G\)-module \(I_G(A)\) is acyclic for \(H^0(H,.)\), which is the object of Exercise 4.4.
