A relative Azumaya algebra may be thought of as an algebra such that the restriction of its structure sheaf (over the centre) to a certain generically closed subset of the spectrum of the centre is a sheaf of Azumaya algebras (plus some coherence condition). Relative Brauer groups and Picard groups may then be defined and they fit in a sequence of the Chase-Harrison-Rosenberg type. Specializing to the generically closed subset of prime ideals of height one, one obtains a sequence involving the class group (over Krull domains) that had been conjectured by S. Yuan, although, according to the author, the conjectured sequence has to be modified somewhat in the Amitsur-cohomology case. This is not so clear to the reviewer since the units of \(Q_{\sigma}(S)\) are just the units of S if one assumes S to be a \(\sigma\)-progenerator, as the authors do. In the Galois cohomology case the authors recover from the exact sequence the generalized crossed product theorem for relative Azumaya algebras.
