Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p>0$, $\mathcal{V}$ a complete discrete valuation ring with residue field $k$ and field of fractions $K$ of characteristic 0, and $S$ a separated $k$-scheme of finite type. When $S$ is smooth…

Berthelot's conjecture predicts that under a proper and smooth morphism of schemes in characteristic $p$, the higher direct images of an overconvergent $F$-isocrystal are overconvergent $F$-isocrystals. In this paper we prove that this is…

Let $k$ be a perfect field of characteristic $p >0$, $U$ be a variety over $k$ and $F$ be a power of Frobenius. We construct the category of overholonomic arithmetical ($F$-)$\D$-modules over $U$ and the category of overholonomic…

We define the big crystalline site for a log scheme and prove the basic properties. In particular, we show the boundedness, base change, and perfectness theorems for the crystalline higher direct image of quasi-coherent crystals between…

Up to a translation in the language of arithmetic $\D$-modules, we prove a conjecture of Berthelot on the preservation of the overconvergence under the direct image by a smooth proper morphism of varieties over a perfect field of…

We show a Lefschetz theorem for irreducible overconvergent $F$-isocrystals on smooth varieties defined over a finite field. We derive several consequences from it.

In this article we give a survey of the various forms of Berthelot's conjecture and some of the implications between them. By proving some comparison results between pushforwards of overconvergent isocrystals and those of arithmetic…

We use motivic methods to give a quick proof of Berthelot's conjecture stating that the push-forward map in rigid cohomology of the structural sheaf along a smooth and proper map has a canonical structure of overconvergent F-isocrystal on…

This article is the expanded version of a talk given at the conference: Algebraic geometry in East Asia 2008, Seoul. In this notes, I intend to give a brief survey of results on the behavior of semi-stable bundles under the Frobenius…

We generalise a theorem on the existence of Frobenius isocrystal and Fontaine-Laffaille module structures on rigid flat connections to the non-proper setting. The proof is based on a new strategy of a point-set topological flavour, which…

We introduce the notion of integrable connections for a sheaf of differential graded algebras on a topological space. We then describe them in the finite locally projective setting, when the sheaf is either the de Rham complex of a formal…

Let $X$ be a smooth projective variety over an algebraically field $k$ with ${\rm char}(k)=p>0$ and $F:X\to X_1$ be the relative Frobenius morphism. When ${\rm dim}(X)=1$, we prove that $F_*W$ is a stable bundle for any stable bundle $W$…

This article concerns properties of mixed $\ell$-adic complexes on varieties over finite fields, related to the action of the Frobenius automorphism. We establish a fiberwise criterion for the semisimplicity and Frobenius semisimplicity of…

We introduce a valuation-theoretic approach to the problem of semistable reduction (i.e., existence of logarithmic extensions on suitable covers) of overconvergent isocrystals with Frobenius structure. The key tool is the quasicompactness…

We extend Berthelot's theory of arithmetic D-modules to a class of morphisms that are not necessarily of finite type. As an application we give a new construction of the category of convergent isocrystals on a separated scheme of finite…

Consider a meromorphic connection on P^1 over a p-adic field. In many cases, such as those arising from Picard-Fuchs equations or Gauss-Manin connections, this connection admits a Frobenius structure defined over a suitable rigid analytic…

In this short note we explain the proof that proper surjective and faithfully flat maps are morphisms of effective descent for overconvergent isocrystals. We then show how to deduce the folklore theorem that for an arbitrary variety over a…

We investigate the injectivity of the Frobenius map on thickenings of smooth varieties in projective space over a field of positive characteristic. We obtain uniform bounds -- i.e., independent of the characteristic -- on the thickening…
