Forming the kernel of an adic completion map is sometimes called forming the adic residual, for instance the -residual for -adic completion.
For a commutative ring and an ideal, and an -module, then the -adic residual of (hence the kernel of the map to the completion of a module ) is equivalently the submodule of elements annihilated by .

For suitably well behaved ideals, forming the adic residual may be understood as the dR-flat modality in the cohesion of E-infinity arithmetic geometry:
cohesion in E-∞ arithmetic geometry:
cohesion modality | symbol | interpretation |
---|---|---|
flat modality | formal completion at | |
shape modality | torsion approximation | |
dR-shape modality | localization away | |
dR-flat modality | adic residual |
