Construction of Arithmetic Teichmuller Spaces III: A `Rosetta Stone' and a proof of Mochizuki's Corollary 3.12
Kirti Joshi
TL;DR
The paper develops Arithmetic Teichmuller Spaces for number fields, introducing holomorphoids as global and local arithmetic-analytic data and fixing Initial Theta Data to enable global theta-values. It builds Mochizuki's Adelic Ansatz and Theta-links across adeles, embeds these into p-adic period rings, and establishes tensor-product structures to realize Mochizuki’s tensor-packet framework. A central achievement is a proof of Mochizuki's Corollary 3.12 in the adelic Joshi setting, together with a detailed Rosetta Stone to translate between Mochizuki's IUT and this arithmetic Teichmuller perspective. The work also clarifies the roles of prime-strips, log-links, and Frobenius-étale duality, and demonstrates how global product formulas constrain local valuations, yielding global-normalization phenomena with potential Diophantine consequences. Overall, it provides a global, explicit, and verifiable framework connecting arithmetic deformation theory, p-adic Hodge theoretic period rings, and a broad, structured approach to Mochizuki’s conjectures, while situating these results within a Rosetta Stone that links IUT to Arithmetic Teichmuller spaces.
Abstract
This is a continuation of my work on Arithmetic Teichmuller Spaces (arXiv:2106.11452, arXiv:2210.11635, arXiv:2303.01662, arXiv:2305.10398). This paper establishes a number of important results including (1) a proof Mochizuki's Corollary 3.12 (2) establishes a `Rosetta Stone' for a parallel reading of Mochizuki's Inter-Universal Teichmuller Theory and my Theory of Arithmetic Teichmuller Spaces, and (3) a proof that Mochizuki's gluing of Hodge-Theaters, Frobenioids along prime-strips as described in his theory is naturally provided by the existence of Arithmetic Teichmuller Spaces. (4) Includes the geometric case of Mochizuki's Corollary 3.12 in §12.
