Analogues of the $p^n$th Hilbert symbol in characteristic $p$ (updated)

Abstract: The $p$th degree Hilbert symbol $(\cdot,\cdot )p:K^\times/K^{\times p}\times K^\times/K^{\times p}\to{}_p{\rm Br}(K)$ from characteristic $\neq p$ has two analogues in characteristic $p$, $$[\cdot,\cdot )_p:K/\wp (K)\times K^\times/K^{\times p}\to{}_p{\rm Br}(K),$$ where $\wp$ is the Artin-Schreier map $x\mapsto x^p-x$, and $$((\cdot,\cdot ))_p:K/K^p\times K/K^p\to{}_p{\rm Br}(K).$$ The symbol $[\cdot,\cdot )_p$ generalizes to an analogue of $(\cdot,\cdot ){p^n}$ via the Witt vectors, $$[\cdot,\cdot ){p^n}:W_n(K)/\wp (W_n(K))\times K^\times/K^{\times p^n}\to{}{p^n}{\rm Br}(K).$$ Here $W_n(K)$ is the truncation of length $n$ of the ring of $p$-typical Witt wectors, i.e. $W_{{1,p,\ldots,p^{n-1}}}(K)$. In this paper we construct similar generalizations for $((\cdot,\cdot ))p$. Our construction involves Witt vectors and Weyl algebras. In the process we obtain a new kind of Weyl algebras in characteristic $p$, with many interesting properties. The symbols we introduce, $((\cdot,\cdot )){p^n}$ and, more generally, $((\cdot,\cdot )){p^m,p^n}$, which here are defined in terms of central simple algebras, coincide with the homonymous symbols we introduced in [arXiv:1711.00980] in terms of the symbols $[\cdot,\cdot ){p^n}$. This will be proved in a future paper. In the present paper we only introduce the symbols and we prove that they have the same properties with the symbols from [arXiv:1711.00980]. These properies are enough to obtain the representation theorem for ${}_{p^n}{\rm Br}(K)$ from [arXiv:1711.00980], Theorem 4.10.
