Characteristic cycles for coadmissible D-modules on smooth rigid analytic curves

TL;DR
The paper develops a rigid-analytic analog of holonomicity for coadmissible $\wideparen{\mathcal{D}}$-modules on smooth rigid analytic curves by introducing characteristic varieties and finite-length-ensuring cycles in the one-dimensional setting. It builds a robust microlocalization framework on formal curves and their admissible blow-ups, extends it to the Zariski–Riemann space, and leverages the specialization map to transfer sub-holonomic structure between the formal model and the rigid-analytic side, including the $\mathcal{D}_{\langle\mathfrak{X}\rangle}$-theory of Ardakov–Bode–Wadsley. A core outcome is that sub-holonomic modules are generically integrable connections and have finite length, with an Artinian subcategory structure in the quasi-compact case, albeit not being stable under all six cohomological operations. The results unify microlocal techniques with blow-up invariance and provide a finite, multiplicity-driven description of characteristic cycles for both $\mathcal{D}_{\mathfrak{X},\infty}$ and $\wideparen{\mathcal{D}}_{\mathfrak{X}_K}$-modules, enabling precise invariants and finiteness statements in the $p$-adic setting.
Abstract
Let $\mathfrak{X}$ be a formal smooth curve over a complete discrete valuation ring of mixed characteristic and let $\mathfrak{X}\_K$ be its generic fiber. We consider respectively over $\mathfrak{X}$ and $\X\_K$ the sheaves of differential operators $\mathcal{D}\_{\mathfrak{X}, \infty}$ and $\wideparen{\D}\_{\mathfrak{X}\_K}$ with a rapid convergence condition. In this article, we define a characteristic variety as a subset of the cotangent space $T^*\mathfrak{X}\_K$ together with a characteristic cycle for coadmissible $\wideparen{\D}\_{\mathfrak{X}\_K}$-modules. We deduce a notion of ''sub-holonomicity'' for coadmissible $\wideparen{\D}\_{\mathfrak{X}\_K}$-modules which is equivalent to being generically an integrable connection. When $\mathfrak{X}$ is quasi-compact, we get an Artinian category of sub-holonomic $\wideparen{\D}\_{\mathfrak{X}\_K}$ which are weakly-holonomic. Moreover, we prove that a coadmissible $\wideparen{\D}\_{\mathfrak{X}\_K}$-modules is sub-holonomic if and only if the corresponding coadmissible $\Di$-module is.
