This leads to the notion of $p^m$-curvature on differential modules of level $m$. We use this construction to recover Kaneda's description of a semi-linear Azumaya splitting of the sheaf of differential operators of level $m$. Then, using a lifting modulo $p^2$ of Frobenius, we are able to define a Frobenius map on differential operators of level $m$ as dual to some divided Frobenius on infinitesimal neighborhhods. We use this map to build a true Azumaya splitting of the completed sheaf of differential operators of level $m$ (up to an automorphism of the center). From this, we derive the fact that Frobenius pull back gives, when restricted to quasi-nilpotent objects, an equivalence between Higgs-modules and differential modules of level $m$. We end by explaining the relation with related work of Ogus-Vologodski and van der Put in level zero as well as Berthelot's Frobenius descent.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2008-11-07T16:19:05.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "positive characteristic", "differential operators", "simpson correspondence", "infinitesimal neighborhhods", "differential modules" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2008arXiv0811.1168G" } } }
