Crystalline comparison theorem for p-divisible groups

This is the git repository for my Master's thesis. I studied for it in Bordeaux, between January and June 2021, under the supervision of Professor Olivier Brinon. Its aim is to prove a crystalline comparison theorem for p-divisible groups, for a prime number p.

More specifically, let K be a complete discrete valuation field of characteristic 0 with perfect residue field of characteristic p. I have studied Messing’s crystalline Dieudonné theory and deformation theory of p-divisible groups, in order to prove the classification of p-divisible groups over the ring of integers of K with Breuil-Kisin modules. Using crystalline techniques, this allows to relate the p-adic Tate module of a p-divisible group and its Breuil-Kisin module by a period isomorphism, which in this case is nothing but the crystalline comparison isomorphism between the dual of the étale cohomology and that of the crystalline cohomology of the special fiber.
