Triangulations of non-archimedean curves, semi-stable reduction, and ramification
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Volume 73 (2023) no. 2, pp. 695-746.

Let K be a complete discretely valued field with algebraically closed residue field and let be a smooth projective and geometrically connected algebraic K-curve of genus g. Assume that g2, so that there exists a minimal finite Galois extension L of K such that L admits a semi-stable model. In this paper, we study the extension LK in terms of the minimal triangulation of C, a distinguished finite subset of the Berkovich analytification C of . We prove that the least common multiple d of the multiplicities of the points of the minimal triangulation always divides the degree [L:K]. Moreover, in the special case when d is prime to the residue characteristic of K, then we show that d=[L:K], obtaining a new proof of a classical theorem of T. Saito. We then discuss curves with marked points, which allows us to prove analogous results in the case of elliptic curves, whose minimal triangulations we describe in full in the tame case. In the last section, we illustrate through several examples how our results explain the failure of the most natural extensions of Saito’s theorem to the wildly ramified case.

Soit K un corps discrètement valué complet avec corps résiduel algébriquement clos et soit une K-courbe projective lisse, géométriquement connexe, de genre g. Si l’on suppose g2 il y a une extension Galoisienne finie L|K minimale pour la propriété que le changement de base L admet un modèle semistable. Nous étudions l’extension L|K en utilisant la triangulation minimale de C : un ensemble fini de points de l’analytification à la Berkovich C de . Nous prouvons que le plus petit multiple commun d des multiplicités des points de cette triangulation minimale divise le degré de l’extension [L:K]. Lorsque d est premier avec la caractéristique résiduelle de K, nous démontrons que d=[L:K], en déduisant une nouvelle preuve d’un théorème classique de T. Saito. Nous discutons ensuite le cas des courbes avec points marqués, ce qui nous permet d’obtenir des résultats analogues pour les courbes elliptiques et de décrire complètement les triangulations de ces dernières dans le cas modérément ramifié. Nous terminons en expliquant grâce à nos résultats pourquoi les extensions plus naturelles du théorème de Saito ne peuvent pas être vraies dans le cas sauvagement ramifié.
