Exponential Sums of Witt Towers over Affinoids

Number Theory 2019-06-06 v1

Abstract

In this paper we construct a Dwork theory for general exponential sums over affinoids in Witt towers. Using this, we compute the degree of the LL-function, its Hodge polygon and examine when the Hodge and Newton polygons coincide.
