Abstract

In a previous paper Cuntz and Deninger introduced the ring C(R)C(R) for a perfect Fp\mathbb{F}_p-algebra RR. The ring C(R)C(R) is canonically isomorphic to the pp-typical Witt ring W(R)W(R). In fact there exist canonical isomorphisms αn ⁣:ZR/InWn(R)\alpha_n \colon \mathbb{Z}R/I^n \xrightarrow{\sim} W_n(R). In this paper we give explicit descriptions of the isomorphisms αn\alpha_n for n2n\geq 2 if pnp\geq n.
