The term “Selmer group” was first used in the 1960s to refer to a certain group that proved to be useful in studying the arithmetic properties of an elliptic curve defined over a number field. The classical definition is easily extended to abelian varieties defined over number fields. We will recall that definition later. Over the years, it was found that one could define such objects in a much more general context. Such definitions occur in the formulation of the Bloch-Kato conjecture (in [BK]) as well as in generalizations of a conjecture of Iwasawa (in [Gr1] and [Gr2]). Roughly speaking, a Selmer group is a subgroup of a global Galois cohomology group defined by imposing local restrictions of some kind on the cocycle classes. These local conditions take a rather specific form in the examples cited above. However, in this paper, a Selmer group will be defined simply as the kernel of a very general type of map which we will call “global-to-local”.
