Description

This issue is meant to track PRs on the development of the theory of perfectoid fields. This issue belongs to a broader project of proving the Fontaine-Wintenberger theorem.

Rough roadmap

  • define Fontaine's theta map
  • build the tilting equivalence for integral perfectoid rings
  • define the perfectoid fields and show its relation with integral perfectoid rings
  • show that the tilt of a perfectoid field is still perfectoid (to be decomposed later)
  • define the tilt of the morphism
  • define the category of perfectoid fields and the tilting functor
  • show that char p perfectoid field is just a rank 1 valued perfect char p field

Research direction

Start with the roadmap and the referenced PRs, especially #21564 and #21563, to understand which parts of the tilting-equivalence development remain open. The issue does not name files, tests, or a single concrete deliverable, so completion criteria must be clarified before implementation.
