Twisting the Infinitesimal Site
Abstract
We classify twistings of Grothendieck's differential operators on a smooth variety X in prime characteristic p. We prove isomorphism classes of twistings are in bijection with H2(X,Zp(1)), the degree 2, weight 1 syntomic cohomology of X. We also discuss the relationship between twistings of crystalline and Grothendieck differential operators. Twistings in mixed characteristic are also analyzed.
