This theory is a generalisation of the theory of modules with connection in characteristic zero as given by N. Katz to modules over rings of arbitrary characteristic. We show that these modules with iterative connection (and also the modules with integrable iterative connection) form a Tannakian category, assuming some nice properties for the underlying ring, and we show how this generalises to modules over schemes. Stratifications on modules as introduced by A. Grothendieck generalise the notion of integrable (ordinary) connections in another way. However, over smooth rings, we obtain an equivalence of stratifications and integrable iterative connections. Furthermore, over a regular ring in positive characteristic, we show that the category of modules with integrable iterative connection is also equivalent to the category of flat bundles as defined by D. Gieseker. In the second part of this article, we set up a Picard-Vessiot theory for fields of solutions. For such a Picard-Vessiot extension, we obtain a Galois correspondence, which takes into account even nonreduced closed subgroup schemes of the Galois group scheme on one hand and inseparable intermediate extensions of the Picard-Vessiot extension on the other hand. Finally, we compare our Galois theory with the Galois theory for purely inseparable field extensions given by S. Chase. abstract_translated_lang: eng class_scheme: msc class_labels: 12F15, 12H20, 13N99 date: 2008 date_type: published id_scheme: DOI id_number: 10.11588/heidok.00008738 official_url: http://arxiv.org/abs/0712.3748v3 portal_cluster_id: p-iwrpp portal_order: 08738 ppn_swb: 1647699037 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-opus-87384 language: eng bibsort: MAURISCHATGALOISTHEO2008 full_text_status: public series: IWR-Preprints citation: Maurischat, Andreas (2008) Galois theory for iterative connections and nonreduced Galois groups.
