Abstract: The $psi$-operator for $(phi,Gamma)$-modules plays an important role in the study of Iwasawa theory via Fontaine's big rings. In this note, we prove several sharp estimates for the $psi$-operator in the cyclotomic case. These estimates immediately imply a number of sharp $p$-adic combinatorial congruences, one of which extends the classical congruences of Fleck (1913) and Weisman (1977).

Review text

The \(\psi\)-operator for \((\phi,\Gamma)\)-modules plays an important role in the study of Iwasawa theory via Fontaine's big rings. In this note, we prove several sharp estimates for the \(\psi\)-operator in the cyclotomic case. These estimates immediately imply a number of sharp \(p\)-adic combinatorial congruences, one of which extends the classical congruences of \textit{A. Fleck} [Sitzungsber. Berl. Math. Ges. 13, 2--6 (1913)] and \textit{C. S. Weisman} [Mich. Math. J. 24, 141--151 (1977; Zbl 0377.10003)].
