Abstract
Let V be a complete discrete valuation ring with residue field k of characteristic p > 0 and fraction field K of characteristic zero. Let S be a formal scheme over V and let X -> S be a locally projective formal abelian scheme. In this paper we prove that, under suitable natural conditions on the Hasse-Witt matrix of X circle times(V) V/pV, the kernel of the Frobenius morphism on X-k can be canonically lifted to a finite and flat subgroup scheme of X over an admissible blow-up of S, called the 'canonical subgroup of X'. This is done by a careful study of torsors under group schemes of order p over X. We also present a filtration on H-1 (3C, mu(p)) in the spirit of the Hodge-Tate decomposition.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
