Lifting the field of norms

Laurent Berger (2014)

Journal de l’École polytechnique — Mathématiques

Let K be a finite extension of Q p . The field of norms of a p -adic Lie extension K / K is a local field of characteristic p which comes equipped with an action of Gal ( K / K ) . When can we lift this action to characteristic 0 , along with a compatible Frobenius map? In this note, we formulate precisely this question, explain its relevance to the theory of ( ϕ , Γ ) -modules, and give a condition for the existence of certain types of lifts.

Limiting curlicue measures for theta sums

Francesco Cellarosi (2011)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

We consider the ensemble of curves {γα, N: α∈(0, 1], N∈ℕ} obtained by linearly interpolating the values of the normalized theta sum N−1/2∑n=0N'−1exp(πin2α), 0≤N'<N. We prove the existence of limiting finite-dimensional distributions for such curves as N→∞, when α is distributed according to any probability measure λ, absolutely continuous w.r.t. the Lebesgue measure on [0, 1]. Our Main Theorem generalizes a result by Marklof [Duke Math. J.97 (1999) 127–153] and Jurkat and van Horne [Duke...
