A stacky approach to prismatic crystals via $q$-prism charts

Zeyu Liu

TL;DR

This work develops a stacky, $q$-prism-based framework to classify prismatic crystals by realizing them as quasi-coherent complexes on prismatizations of $p$-adic schemes. Central to the approach is the construction of $q$-connections (and $q$-Higgs derivations) on pullbacks to $q$-prisms, yielding a derived-equivalence between $\mathcal{D}(X_n^{\Delta})$ and modules over noncommutative Ore extensions $A/d^n[\partial; \gamma_A, \partial_A]$, subject to completeness and nilpotence conditions. The authors extend this to relative prismatizations and LCIs, obtain Galois-descent results to Cartier–Witt, and use these to compute cohomology on the Cartier–Witt stack and the absolute prismatic site of $\mathbb{Z}_p$. The framework unifies and extends HT, Sen-operator, and Frobenius data in a single stacky, noncommutative algebraic setting, and provides explicit, computable descriptions of prismatic crystals across absolute and relative contexts with broad applications in $p$-adic Hodge theory and related K-theoretic questions.

Abstract

Let $Y$ be a locally complete intersection over $\mathcal{O}_K$ containing a $p$-power root of unity $ζ_p$. We classify the derived category of prismatic crystals on the absolute prismatic site of $Y$ by studying quasi-coherent complexes on the prismatization of $Y$ via $q$-prism charts. We also develop a Galois descent mechanism to remove the assumption on $\mathcal{O}_K$. As an application, we classify quasi-coherent complexes on the Cartier-Witt stack and give a purely algebraic calculation of the cohomology of the structure sheaf on the absolute prismatic site of $\mathbb{Z}_p$. Along the way, for $Y$ a locally complete intersection over $\overline{A}$ with $A$ lying over a $q$-prism, we classify quasi-coherent complexes on the relative prismatization of $Y$.

A stacky approach to prismatic crystals via $q$-prism charts

TL;DR

This work develops a stacky, -prism-based framework to classify prismatic crystals by realizing them as quasi-coherent complexes on prismatizations of -adic schemes. Central to the approach is the construction of -connections (and -Higgs derivations) on pullbacks to -prisms, yielding a derived-equivalence between and modules over noncommutative Ore extensions , subject to completeness and nilpotence conditions. The authors extend this to relative prismatizations and LCIs, obtain Galois-descent results to Cartier–Witt, and use these to compute cohomology on the Cartier–Witt stack and the absolute prismatic site of . The framework unifies and extends HT, Sen-operator, and Frobenius data in a single stacky, noncommutative algebraic setting, and provides explicit, computable descriptions of prismatic crystals across absolute and relative contexts with broad applications in -adic Hodge theory and related K-theoretic questions.

Key Result

Theorem 1.0.2

Assume that $p>2$ or $\alpha>0$. With the preceding notations, for $n\in \mathbb{N}\cup \{\infty\}$, the pullback along the covering $\rho: \mathrm{Spf}(A/d^n)\to X_n^{{\mathlarger{\mathbbl{\Delta}}}}$By abuse of notation, when $n=\infty$, this just means $\rho: \mathrm{Spf}(A)\to X^{{\mathlarger{\m whose essential image consists of those objects $M\in \mathcal{D}(A/d^n[\partial; \gamma_A, \partia
