Comparison isomorphism between WittVector p (ZMod p) and ℤ_[p] #

We construct a ring isomorphism between WittVector p (ZMod p) and ℤ_[p]. This isomorphism follows from the fact that both satisfy the universal property of the inverse limit of ZMod (p^n).

theorem TruncatedWittVector.charP_zmod (p : ) [hp : Fact (Nat.Prime p)] (n : ) :

The unique isomorphism between ZMod p^n and TruncatedWittVector p n (ZMod p).

This isomorphism exists, because TruncatedWittVector p n (ZMod p) is a finite ring with characteristic and cardinality p^n.

    toZModPow is a family of compatible ring homs. We get this family by composing TruncatedWittVector.zmodEquivTrunc (in right-to-left direction) with WittVector.truncate.

        The ring of Witt vectors over ZMod p is isomorphic to the ring of p-adic integers. This equivalence is witnessed by WittVector.toPadicInt with inverse WittVector.fromPadicInt.
