A note on p-adic étale cohomology in the semi-stable reduction case (Q1089397): Difference between revisions

This paper studies p-adic étale cohomology of varieties over a p-adic field (i.e. a complete discrete valuation field of mixed characteristics (0,p)) under the assumption that the varieties have semi-stable reduction. This assumption is rather general because every variety is conjectured to admit a semi-stable model after enlarging the base field. Results of \textit{S. Bloch} and \textit{K. Kato} [Publ. Math., Inst. Hautes Étud. Sci. 63, 107-152 (1986; Zbl 0613.14017)] are generalized to the semi-stable reduction case (they considered the good reduction case): The structure of the sheaf of p-adic vanishing cycles are described in terms of the ''modified differential modules''. (As the special fiber may be singular, the usual differential modules do not work well.) And a global result is obtained under the ''ordinary'' assumption. Namely the p-adic étale cohomology groups of varieties with ''ordinary semi-stable reduction'' has a filtration whose subquotients are unramified representations of the absolute Galois group of the base field with some Tate twist.
