Twisted differential operators and $q$-crystals

Algebraic Geometry 2022-03-16 v4

Abstract

We discuss the notion of a q-PD-envelope considered by Bhatt and Scholze in their recent theory of q-crystalline cohomology and explain the relation with our notion of a divided polynomial twisted algebra. Together with an interpretation of crystals on the q-crystalline site, that we call q-crystals, as modules endowed with some kind of stratification, it allows us to associate a module on the ring of twisted differential operators to any q-crystal. For simplicity, we explain here only the one dimensional case.
