This chapter offers a second lecture on perfectoid spaces. A perfectoid Tate ring R is a complete, uniform Tate ring containing a pseudo-uniformizer. A perfectoid space is an adic space covered by affinoid adic spaces with R perfectoid. The term “affinoid perfectoid space” is ambiguous. The chapter then looks at the tilting process and the tilting equivalence. The tilting equivalence extends to the étale site of a perfectoid space. Why is it important to study perfectoid spaces? The chapter puts forward a certain philosophy which indicates that perfectoid spaces may arise even when one is only interested in classical objects.Less
