11.7 Remark on the case of positive and mixed characteristic
Our construction of works even without the assumption where is the residue field of . This can be explained from the point of view of factorization theorem (see Section 10.4). It turns out that symplectomorphisms which appear in the infinite product in the RHS of the factorization theorem are infinite series whose coefficients are integer polynomials in the coefficients of the “parent” symplectomorphisms.
For example, let and be two power series convergent when . Let us consider two symplectomorphisms: and and decompose into the infinite ordered product . Here
where . Then one can check that for any coprime and any one has
This implies that our construction works when one replaces by arbitrary commutative ring endowed with a complete non-trivial valuation .
