On the direct summand conjecture and its derived variant

Abstract: Andr'e recently gave a beautiful proof of Hochster's direct summand conjecture in commutative algebra using perfectoid spaces; his two main results are a generalization of the almost purity theorem (the perfectoid Abhyankar lemma) and a construction of certain faithfully flat extensions of perfectoid algebras where "discriminants" acquire all p-power roots. In this paper, we explain a quicker proof of Hochster's conjecture that circumvents the perfectoid Abhyankar lemma; instead, we prove and use a quantitative form of Scholze's Hebbarkeitssatz (the Riemann extension theorem) for perfectoid spaces. The same idea also leads to a proof of a derived variant of the direct summand conjecture put forth by de Jong.
