Abstract

Let XX be a perfectoid space with tilt XX^\flat. We construct a canonical map θ:PicXlimPicX\theta:\operatorname{Pic} X^\flat\to\lim\operatorname{Pic} X where the (inverse) limit is taken over the pp-power map, and show that θ\theta is an isomorphism if R=Γ(X,OX)R = \Gamma(X,\mathscr{O}_X) is a perfectoid ring. As a consequence we obtain a characterization of when the Picard groups of XX and XX^\flat agree in terms of the pp-divisibility of PicX\operatorname{Pic} X. The main technical ingredient is the vanishing of higher derived limits of the unit group RR^*, whence the main result follows from the Grothendieck spectral sequence.
