abstract

We give a direct construction of the ring spectrum of spherical Witt vectors of a perfect $\mathbb{F}_p$-algebra R as the completion of the spherical monoid algebra $\mathbb{S}[R]$ of the multiplicative monoid $(R,\cdot)$ at the ideal $I = \mathrm{fib}(\mathbb{S}[R] \to R)$. This generalizes a construction of Cuntz and Deninger. We also use this to give a description of the category of p-complete modules over the spherical Witt vectors and a universal property for spherical Witt vectors as an $\mathbb{E}_1$-ring.

  1. On The Telescopic Picard Group

    math.AT 2024-12 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    For all primes p and heights n, Pic(Sp_{T(n)}) contains Z_p × Z/(a_p(p^n−1)), lifting the known K(n)-local subgroup.

  2. Higher Semiadditive Character Theory

    math.AT 2026-07 accept novelty 7.0 of 10

    Every ∞-commutative monoid has a universal (n−t)-fold semiadditive character that blue-shifts height, recovers the transchromatic character on Morava E-theory, and computes L_Q(S^A_{K(n)}) via GL_{n−t}(Z_p)-fixed points.
