Crystalline cohomology: A survey (Q1272696): Difference between revisions

This survey, based on three talks by Luc Illusie, Farid Mokrane and Antoine Chambert-Lior, is intended to introduce the reader to the main results and ideas about crystalline cohomology and some of its developments. The paper is divided into three main parts. In the first part one introduces crystalline cohomology and the de Rham-Witt complex. Some proofs are sketched in order to give the reader the main ideas behind them, e.g. the proofs for comparison theorems between crystalline cohomology and the first de Rham cohomology, on the one hand, and the hypercohomology of the de Rham-Witt complex, on the other hand. In the second part one presents the theory of \(F\)-crystals, their Newton and Hodge polygons and the link between de Rham-Witt cohomology and the slopes of the Frobenius operator on the crystalline cohomology. -- In the third part the theory of ordinary varieties, the generic ordinarity and analogous results over number fields are discussed. Here is the table of contents: Part 1. Crystalline cohomology and the de Rham-Witt complex: 1. The origins; 2. Crystalline cohomology; 3. The de Rham-Witt complex; 4. The comparison with the crystalline cohomology. Part 2. Slopes of the crystalline Frobenius: 1. \(F\)-crystals; 2. Newton polygon and the Katz conjecture; 3. The link with de Rham-Witt complex. Part 3. The Hodge-Witt decomposition and ordinary varieties: 1. The conjugated spectral sequence; 2. The Hodge-Witt decomposition; 3. Ordinary varieties; 4. Examples of ordinary varieties; 5. Generic ordinarity; 6. The case of number fields. The references contain 57 items.
