Prismatic cohomology is a cohomology theory for p-adic formal schemes which can specialize into various -adic cohomology theories, including étale cohomology, de Rham cohomology and crystalline cohomology, as well as the so far conjectural -de Rham cohomology of Peter Scholze. It is a geometric approach to integral p-adic Hodge theory.
Prismatic cohomology relies heavily on the idea of a -ring, introduced by Andre Joyal to formalize how a ring equipped with a Frobenius lift is analogous to ring equipped with a derivation.
A prism is a pair where is a -ring and is an ideal defining a Cartier divisor on , such that is derived -complete, and .
A prism is perfect if is perfect. The category of perfect prisms is equivalent to the category of integral perfectoid rings which are related to, but not the same as, the perfectoid rings in perfectoid spaces. The definition of integral perfectoid ring can be found in Definition 3.5 of BhattScholze19 and the relation between the two notions of perfectoid can be found in Lemma 3.20 of the same paper.
Let be a prism as defined above. Let be a formally smooth -algebra. The prismatic site has objects which are prisms over together with a map over . Such an object is written .
We have functors and which sends to and respectively. The prismatic cohomology of is defined to be .
We have the following comparison theorems relating prismatic cohomology to the crystalline and étale cohomology:
Let be a bounded prism and let be a smooth -algebra. There exists a canonical isomorphism
in , compatible with the action of Frobenius on both sides.
Let be a perfect prism and let be a -complete -algebra. For all , there exists a canonical isomorphism
where is a generator of .
By forgetting the choice of base prism, one obtains the absolute prismatic cohomology. Given a p-adic formal scheme , its absolute prismatic site is the category of all bounded prisms equipped with a map , topologized with the flat topology. We have sheaves , , and obtained by remembering , , and respectively.
The absolute prismatic cohomology is equipped with a filtration called the Nygaard filtration, playing a role analogous to that of the Hodge filtration for de Rham cohomology.
Let be a p-adic formal scheme and let be its absolute prismatic site as above. A prismatic crystal is an assignment
where is the set of finite projective -modules.
A stacky approach to the study of prismatic crystals has been developed independently by Drinfeld (Drinfeld20) and Bhatt-Lurie (BhattLurie22).
Given p-adic formal scheme , one can attach a stack, called the Cartier-Witt stack and denoted by Bhatt-Lurie, and called the prismatization of and denoted by Drinfeld. When is quasi-syntomic, one can identify the -category of crystals of -complete complexes on with the derived -category of quasi-coherent sheaves on (Bhatt21, Remark 2.6).
Prismatic cohomology can be used to obtain the following inequality for a proper smooth formal scheme over (here is the residue field of ):
Prismatic cohomology has also been used in Bhatt20 to prove that modulo a prime power the absolute integral closure of an excellent Noetherian domain is Cohen-Macaulay. The proof also uses a p-adic version of the Riemann-Hilbert correspondence being developed in yet-unpublished work of Bhargav Bhatt and Jacob Lurie.
Prismatic cohomology has also been used to construct a version of syntomic cohomology, which describes the graded pieces of a “motivic” filtration on p-adic etale K-theory. This is analogous to the filtration on topological K-theory whose graded pieces are described by the shifted singular cohomology complex, and is also analogous to the filtration on algebraic K-theory by motivic cohomology. This is used by Antieau, Krause and Nikolaus in AKN22 to determine the K-groups of .
Prismatic cohomology was developed by Bhargav Bhatt and Peter Scholze following earlier work on developing an integral version of p-adic Hodge theory. Some of this earlier work includes -cohomology in BhattMorrowScholze16 and integral p-adic Hodge theory via topological Hochschild homology in BhattMorrowScholze16, both of which were developed together with Matthew Morrow.
