Abstract

Let o{\mathfrak o} be a complete discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristic (0,p)(0,p) and X0{\mathfrak X}_0 a smooth formal scheme over the formal spectrum of o{\mathfrak o}. Given an admissible formal blow-up X{\mathfrak X} of X0{\mathfrak X}_0 we introduce sheaves of differential operators DX,k{\mathscr D}^\dagger_{{\mathfrak X},k} on X{\mathfrak X}, for every integer kkXk \ge k_{\mathfrak X}, where kXk_{\mathfrak X} depends on the blow-up morphism XX0{\mathfrak X}\rightarrow {\mathfrak X}_0. This generalizes Berthelot's construction of sheaves of arit hmetic differential operators on X0{\mathfrak X}_0. The coherence of these sheaves and several other basic properties are proven. In the second part we study the projective limit sheaf DX,=limkDX,k{\mathscr D}_{{\mathfrak X},\infty} = \varprojlim_k {\mathscr D}^\dagger_{{\mathfrak X},k} and so-called coadmissible modules for DX,{\mathscr D}_{{\mathfrak X},\infty}. The inductive limit of the sheaves DX,{\mathscr D}_{{\mathfrak X},\infty}, over all admissible blow-ups X{\mathfrak X} of X0{\mathfrak X}_0, gives rise to a sheaf DX0{\mathscr D}_{\langle {\mathfrak X}_0 \rangle} on the Zariski-Riemann space of X0{\mathfrak X}_0. Analogues of Theorems A and B are shown to hold in each of these settings, i.e., for DX,k{\mathscr D}^\dagger_{{\mathfrak X},k}, DX,{\mathscr D}_{{\mathfrak X},\infty}, and DX0{\mathscr D}_{\langle {\mathfrak X}_0\rangle}.
