In [[mathematics]], the '''Milnor conjecture''' was a proposal by {{harvs|txt|first=John|last= Milnor|year=1970|authorlink=John Milnor}} of a description of the [[Milnor K-theory]] (mod&nbsp;2) of a general [[field (mathematics)|field]] ''F'' with [[characteristic (algebra)|characteristic]] different from 2, by means of the [[Galois cohomology|Galois]] (or equivalently [[étale cohomology|étale]]) cohomology of ''F'' with coefficients in '''Z'''/2'''Z'''. It was proved by {{harvs|txt|authorlink=Vladimir Voevodsky|first=Vladimir|last= Voevodsky|year1=1996|year2=2003a|year3=2003b}}.
 
==Statement of the theorem==
Let ''F'' be a field of characteristic different from&nbsp;2. Then there is an isomorphism
 
:<math>K_n^M(F)/2 \cong H_{\acute{e}t}^n(F, \mathbb{Z}/2\mathbb{Z})</math>
 
for all ''n''&nbsp;≥&nbsp;0, where ''K'' denotes the [[Milnor ring]].
 
==About the proof==
The proof of this theorem by [[Vladimir Voevodsky]] uses several ideas developed by Voevodsky, [[Alexander Merkurjev]], [[Andrei Suslin]], [[Markus Rost]], [[Fabien Morel]], [[Eric Friedlander]], and others, including the newly minted theory of [[motivic cohomology]] (a kind of substitute for [[singular cohomology]] for [[algebraic varieties]]) and the [[motivic Steenrod algebra]].
 
==Generalizations==
The analogue of this result for [[prime number|primes]] other than 2 was known as the [[Bloch–Kato conjecture]]. Work of Voevodsky and [[Markus Rost]] yielded a complete proof of this conjecture in 2009; the result is now called the [[norm residue isomorphism theorem]].
