Quasi-isogeny corresponding to the image of the Frobenius in the Dieudonné module of a $p$-divisible group
Let $X$ be a $p$-divisible group over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p>0$. Let $M(X)$ be the covariant Dieudonné module of $X$. Thus, $M(X)$ is a finite free $W(k)$-module equipped with a $\...

Explicit description of the crystal associated to the universal object on a Lubin-Tate space
Let $X:=\mathrm{LT}_h$ be the Lubin-Tate space of the (unique) formal group law of height $h$ over $k:=\overline{\mathbb{F}}_p$. The adic generic fiber $X_{\eta}=\mathrm{LT}_{h,\eta}$ is then a rigid-...

Computing the Dieudonné module of $\mu_p$ from Fontaine's Witt Covector
In Groupes $p$-divisibles sur les corps locaux, Fontaine introduced a uniform construction of Dieudonné modules through the definition of the Witt covector. Consider a perfect field $k$ of ...

Conditions for a $p$-divisible group to be represented by a formal Lie group
Let $S$ be a scheme where $p$ is locally nilpotent and let $G$ be a $p$-divisible group over $S$. Is connectedness of $G$ equivalent to $G[p] := \ker(p : G \to G) \to S$ radicial (universally ...

Relation between rational Tate module and universal cover of a p-divisible group
We can associate two $\mathbb Q_p$ vector spaces to a $p$-divisible group, and I'm a little confused about the relation between these two groups. First of all, I think part of my problem is that when ...

What is the reason behind the name 3n-display?
In the paper "The display of a formal $p$-divisible group" Zink defines some objects and calls them $3n$-display. A $3n$-display over $R$ is a quadruple $P$, $Q$, $F$, $F^1$ such that $P$ is ...

Deformation of $p$-divisible group
To try to understand the deformation of $p$-divisible group more explicit, I am thinking given a connected $p$-divisible group $G_0$ on $\overline{\mathbb{F}_q}$, Choose a deformation $G$ of $G_0$ ...
