For every commutative ring $A$, one has a functorial commutative ring $W(A)$ of $p$-typical Witt vectors of $A$, an iterated extension of $A$ by itself. If $A$ is not commutative, it has been known since the pioneering work of L. Hesselholt…

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…

The ring of classic Witt vectors is a fundamental object in mixed characteristic commutative algebra which has many applications in number theory. There is a significant generalization due to Dress and Siebeneicher which for any profinite…

The classical Witt vectors are a ubiquitous object in algebra and number theory. They arise as a functorial construction that takes perfect fields k of prime characteristic p > 0 to p-adically complete discrete valuation rings of…

This paper establishes a connection between equivariant ring spectra and Witt vectors in the sense of Dress and Siebeneicher. Given a commutative ringspectrum T in the highly structured sense, that is, an E-infinity-ringspectrum, with…

For a profinite group $G$, we define an $S[[G]]$-module to be a certain type of $G$-spectrum $X$ built from an inverse system $\{X_i\}_i$ of $G$-spectra, with each $X_i$ naturally a $G/N_i$-spectrum, where $N_i$ is an open normal subgroup…

For every profinite group $G$, we construct two covariant functors $\Delta_G$ and ${\bf {\mathcal {AP}}}_G$ from the category of commutative rings with identity to itself, and show that indeed they are equivalent to the functor $W_G$…

In arxiv:1602.04254, we have defined polynomial Witt vectors functor from vector spaces over a perfect field $k$ of positive characteristic $p$ to abelian groups. In this paper, we use polynomial Witt vectors to construct a functorial…

Let $G$ be the group of rational points of a split connected reductive group over a nonarchimedean local field of residue characteristic $p$. Let $I$ be a pro-$p$ Iwahori subgroup of $G$ and let $R$ be a commutative quasi-Frobenius ring. If…

We give a new construction of $p$-typical Witt vectors with coefficients in terms of ghost maps and show that this construction is isomorphic to the one defined in terms of formal power series from the authors' previous paper. We show that…

Let $L/K$ be a finite Galois extension of complete discrete valued fields of characteristic $p$. Assume that the induced residue field extension $k_L/k_K$ is separable. For an integer $n\geq 0$, let $W_n(\sO_L)$ denote the ring of Witt…

For a prime $p$ and a commutative ring $R$ with unity, let $W(R)$ denote the group of $p$-typical Witt vectors. The group $W(R)$ is endowed with a Verschiebung operator $V: W(R)\to W(R)$ and a Teichm\"{u}ller map $\langle \ \rangle:…

Let $K$ be a complete discrete valuation field of characteristic zero with residue field $k_K$ of characteristic $p>0$. Let $L/K$ be a finite Galois extension with Galois group $G=\Gal(L/K)$ and suppose that the induced extension of residue…

For a finite group G, we study the higher commuting probabilities, namely the probabilities that r randomly chosen elements of G commute pairwise, together with the corresponding numbers of simultaneous conjugacy classes of commuting…

For a prime $p$ and an associative ring $R$ with unity, there are various constructions of $p$-typical Witt vectors of $R$, all of which specialize to the classical $p$-typical Witt vectors when $R$ is commutative. These constructions are…

In this paper, we investigate the properties of the category of equivariant diagram spectra indexed on the category W_G of based G-spaces homeomorphic to finite G-CW-complexes for a compact Lie group G. Using the machinery of Mandell, May,…

We give equivalences between given properties of a commutative ring, and other properties on its ring of Witt vectors. Amongst them, we characterise all commutative rings whose rings of Witt vectors are Noetherian. We define a new category…

We give a direct construction of the ring spectrum of spherical Witt vectors of a perfect $\mathbb{F}_p$-algebra R as the completion of the spherical monoid algebra $\mathbb{S}[R]$ of the multiplicative monoid $(R,\cdot)$ at the ideal $I =…

Let $k$ be an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$, and let $\mathcal{O}$ be either $k$ or its ring of Witt vectors $W(k)$. Let $G$ a finite group and $B$ a block of $\mathcal{O}G$ with normal abelian defect group and abelian…

We show that functors like algebraic $K$-theory (such as unitary or symplectic $K$-functors), as well as the higher Grothendieck--Witt groups, possess the local constancy condition for Henselian valuation rings. Namely, taken with finite…
