Multivariable $(\varphi,Γ)$-modules and locally analytic vectors (1312.4753v8)

Abstract: Let $K$ be a finite extension of $\mathbf{Q}p$ and let $G_K = \mathrm{Gal}(\bar{\mathbf{Q}}_p/K)$. There is a very useful classification of $p$-adic representations of $G_K$ in terms of cyclotomic $(\varphi,\Gamma)$-modules (cyclotomic means that $\Gamma={\rm Gal}(K\infty/K)$ where $K_\infty$ is the cyclotomic extension of $K$). One particularly convenient feature of the cyclotomic theory is the fact that any $(\varphi,\Gamma)$-module is overconvergent. Questions pertaining to the $p$-adic local Langlands correspondence lead us to ask for a generalization of the theory of $(\varphi,\Gamma)$-modules, with the cyclotomic extension replaced by an infinitely ramified $p$-adic Lie extension $K_\infty / K$. It is not clear what shape such a generalization should have in general. Even in the case where we have such a generalization, namely the case of a Lubin-Tate extension, most $(\varphi,\Gamma)$-modules fail to be overconvergent. In this article, we develop an approach that gives a solution to both problems at the same time, by considering the locally analytic vectors for the action of $\Gamma$ inside some big modules defined using Fontaine's rings of periods. We show that, in the cyclotomic case, we recover the ususal overconvergent $(\varphi,\Gamma)$-modules. In the Lubin-Tate case, we can prove, as an application of our theory, a folklore conjecture in the field stating that $(\varphi,\Gamma)$-modules attached to $F$-analytic representations are overconvergent.
