Prüfer group

Let In anF pF_pexpansion be of the a finite field withpp -elements -adic In number the Prüfer p a=Σa ip i p a=\Sigma a_i p^i -group every the element has preciselypa i p a^i are calledppdigits -th . roots. Usually these digits are defined to be taken elements of the set{0,1,,p1}\{0,1,\dots,p-1\}.

It Equivalently is the unique digits up can be defined to isomorphism. be taken from the setT p:={x|x p1=1}{0}T_p:=\{x|x^{p-1}=1\}\cup \{0\}. Elements from this set are called Teichmüller digits or Teichmüller representatives.

Tate module

The set TT is in bijection with the finite field? F pF_p. The set W(F p)W(F_p) of (countably) infinite sequences of elements in F pF_p hence is in bijection to the set p\mathbb{Z}_p of pp-adic integers. There is a ring structure on W(F p)W(F_p) called Witt ring structure such that all ‘’truncated expansion polynomials’‘ Φ n=X p n+pX p n1+p 2X p n2++p nX\Phi_n=X^{p^n}+pX^{p^{n-1}}+p^2X^{p^{n-2}}+\dots +p^n X called Witt polynomials are morphisms

pp-group

Sylow pp-subgroup of Q/ZQ/Z consisting of those elements whose order is a power of pp: Z(p )=Z[1/p]/ZZ(p^\infty)=Z[1/p]/Z
