Abstract
We study the nth arithmetic jet space of the p-torsion subgroup attached to a smooth commutative formal group scheme. We show that the nth jet space above fits in the middle of a canonical short exact sequence between a power of the formal scheme of Witt vectors of length n and the p-torsion subgroup we started with. This result generalizes a result of Buium on roots of unity.
期刊介绍:
This journal, the oldest scientific periodical in Italy, was originally edited by Barnaba Tortolini and Francesco Brioschi and has appeared since 1850. Nowadays it is managed by a nonprofit organization, the Fondazione Annali di Matematica Pura ed Applicata, c.o. Dipartimento di Matematica "U. Dini", viale Morgagni 67A, 50134 Firenze, Italy, e-mail annali@math.unifi.it).
A board of Italian university professors governs the Fondazione and appoints the editors of the journal, whose responsibility it is to supervise the refereeing process. The names of governors and editors appear on the front page of each issue. Their addresses appear in the title pages of each issue.
