Abstract: This article is devoted to studying the ramification of Galois torsors and of ell-adic sheaves in characteristic p>0 (with ellot=p). Let k be a perfect field of characteristic p>0, X be a smooth, separated and quasi-compact k-scheme, D be a simple normal crossing divisor on X, U=XD, Lambda be a finite local mathbbZell-algebra, F be a locally constant constructible sheaf of Lambda-modules on U. We introduce a boundedness condition on the ramification of F along D, and study its main properties, in particular, some specialization properties that lead to the fundamental notion of cleanliness and to the definition of the characteristic cycle of F. The cleanliness condition extends the one introduced by Kato for rank one sheaves. Roughly speaking, it means that the ramification of F along D is controlled by its ramification at the generic points of D. Under this condition, we propose a conjectural Riemann-Roch type formula for F. Some cases of this formula have been previously proved by Kato and by the second author (T.S.).
