Abstract
Given a p-adic representation of the Galois group of a local field, we show that its Galois cohomology can be computed using the associated étale ([phi], [Gamma])-module over the Robba ring; this is a variant of a result of Herr. We then establish analogues, for not necessarily étale (([phi], [Gamma])-modules over the Robba ring, of the Euler-Poincaré characteristic formula and Tate local duality for p-adic representations. These results are expected to intervene in the duality theory for Selmer groups associated to de Rham representations. We introduce the notion of families of [phi]-modules which arises naturally from both rigid cohomology and p-adic Hodge theory. We then prove the local constancy of generic HN-polygons of families of overconvergent [phi]-modules and the semicontinuity of HN-polygons of families of [phi]-modules over reduced affinoid algebras. These results are prospective for a slope theory of families of (overconvergent) [phi]-modules.
