We construct the Weil functor $T^A$ corresponding to a general Weil algebra $A = K \oplus N$: this is a functor from the category of manifolds over a general topological base field or ring $K$ (of arbitrary characteristic) to the category…

For a profinite group $G$ we describe an abelian group $W_G(R; M)$ of $G$-typical Witt vectors with coefficients in an $R$-module $M$ (where $R$ is a commutative ring). This simultaneously generalises the ring $W_G(R)$ of Dress and…
