The Galois cohomology group $H^1(mathbbQ, mathbbZ/3mathbbZ)$ classifies cyclic cubic extensions $K/mathbbQ$ (specifically: the non-trivial elements correspond to Galois cubic field extensions $K/mathbbQ$ together with a choice of isomorphism $mathrmGal(K/mathbbQ) cong mathbbZ/3mathbbZ$).



Let $k = mathbbQ(mu_3)$. There are restriction and corestriction maps
$$mathrmRes: H^1(mathbbQ, mathbbZ/3mathbbZ) to H^1(k, mathbbZ/3mathbbZ), quad mathrmCores: H^1(k, mathbbZ/3mathbbZ) to H^1(mathbbQ, mathbbZ/3mathbbZ).$$
Restriction followed by corestriction is multiplication by $2$ on $H^1(mathbbQ, mathbbZ/3mathbbZ)$. As each element is $3$-torsion, it follows that $mathrmRes$ is an isomorphism and that $mathrmCores$ is surjective (possibly it is even an isomorphism?).



But as $mu_3 subset k$, it follows from Kummer theory that
$$H^1(k, mathbbZ/3mathbbZ) cong H^1(k, mu_3) cong k^*/k^*3.$$
Composing with corestriction, we therefore obtain a surjective map
$$f: k^*/k^*3 to H^1(mathbbQ, mathbbZ/3mathbbZ).$$





Can the map $f$ be made explicit? Namely, given a non-cube $a in k^*$, what is the cyclic cubic extension of $mathbbQ$ induced by $f$?





I know that the corestriction $H^1(k, mu_3) cong k^*/k^3* to mathbbQ^*/mathbbQ^*3 cong H^1(mathbbQ, mu_3)$ is just usual norm map. But this doesn't seem to help here.

          It's just the map



          $$x mapsto y = fracxx^sigma,$$



          where the corresponding degree three extension of $mathbbQ$ is the degree three subfield of $k(y^1/3)$. The point is that it is obvious from the restriction map that



          $$H^1(mathbbQ,mathbbZ/3 mathbbZ)
          = (k^times/k^times 3)^G = chi,$$



          where $chi$ is the non-trivial character of $G = mathrmGal(mathbbQ(zeta_3)/mathbbQ) = mathbbZ/2 mathbbZ$.



          And basic Kummer theory also says that degree 3 cyclic extensions $K$ of $mathbbQ$ have the form $K(zeta_3) = mathbbQ(zeta_3)(alpha^1/3)$ where



          $$sigma alpha = alpha^-1 mod k^times/k^times 3.$$



          The same basic structure holds mutatis mutandis with $mathbbQ$ replaced by any number field $F$, and $3$ replaced by $p$, and $G = chi$ where now $chi$ is the mod-p cyclotomic character of $G = mathrmGal(F(zeta_p)/F)$, which is the canonical (possibly trivial) map $G rightarrow (mathbbZ/p mathbbZ)^times$. And now the map from $k^times/k^times p$ is just the projection to the $chi$-eigenspace.
