On a theorem of Scholze-Weinstein

Let G be the Tate module of a p-divisble group H over a perfect field k of characteristic p. A theorem of Scholze-Weinstein describes G (and therefore H itself) in terms of the Dieudonne module of H; more precisely, it describes G(C) for "good" semiperfect k-algebras C (which is enough to reconstruct G). In these notes we give a self-contained proof of this theorem and explain the relation with the classical descriptions of the Dieudonne functor from Dieudonne modules to p-divisible groups.
