In this paper we introduce the 2-typical de Rham-Witt complex for arbitrary commutative, unital rings and log-rings. We describe this complex for the rings \Z and \Z_{(2)}, for the log-ring (\Z_{(2)},M) with the canonical log-structure, and…

For a not-necessarily commutative ring R we define an abelian group W(R;M) of Witt vectors with coefficients in an R-bimodule M. These groups generalize the usual big Witt vectors of commutative rings and we prove that they have analogous…

(Quoted from the article) Our object is the theory of "{\pi}-exponentials" Pulita developed in his thesis [...] We start with an abstract algebra statement about the structure of the kernel of iterations of the Frobenius endomorphism on the…

We establish structure results for Frobenius kernels of automorphism group schemes for surfaces of general type in positive characteristics. It turns out that there are surprisingly few possibilities. This relies on properties of the famous…

This paper introduces and studies a class of Weyl-type algebras \(A_{p,t,\cA} = \Weyl{e^{\pm x^{p} e^{t x}},\; e^{\cA x},\; x^{\cA}}\) constructed over exponential-polynomial rings, where \(\FF\) is a field of characteristic zero, \(\cA\)…

The construction of the universal ring of Witt vectors is related to Lazard's factorizations of free monoids by means of a noncommutative analogue. This is done by associating to a code a specialization of noncommutative symmetric…

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…

Since the results here have been superseded by another paper cowritten by the author, this article is available for reference purposes only. Fix a Dedekind domain $\mathcal{O}$ and a non-zero prime $\mathfrak{p}$ in it along with a…

We use Lazard's universal $\pi$-ring to construct a variation of the $\pi$-typical ramified Witt vector functors, which we call the Lazardian Witt vector functor. We then use the Lazardian Witt vector functor to construct the universal…

Derived de Rham cohomology has been recently used in several contexts, as in works of Beilinson and Bhatt on p-adic periods morphisms and Morin on numerical invariants for special values of zeta functions. Inspired by some results of Morin,…

The study of images of noncommutative polynomials on algebras has attracted considerable attention. We investigate polynomial images and the additive structures they generate in associative algebras, focusing on sums and products of values.…

We give a new construction of the spherical Witt vector functor of Lurie and Burklund-Schlank-Yuan and extend it to nonconnective objects using synthetic spectra and recent work of Holeman. The spherical Witt vectors are used to build…
