[Math] learning crystalline cohomology

From which sources would you learn about crystalline cohomology and the de-Rham-Witt complex?

Best Answer

With enough enthusiasm, I would try to learn about crystalline cohomology and the de-Rham-Witt complex from the homonymous article by Illusie:

Illusie, Luc. Complexe de deRham-Witt et cohomologie cristalline. (French) Ann. Sci. École Norm. Sup. (4) 12 (1979), no. 4, 501--661. MR0565469 (82d:14013)

Fortunately, it is publicly available at:

But this is most usefully read as needed after one is acquainted with the following also relevant references (perhaps in this order):

S. Bloch, Algebraic K-theory and crystalline cohomology, Publ. Math. Inst. Hautes Etudes Sci. 47 (1977), 187–268.

O. Hyodo and K. Kato, Semi-stable reduction and crystalline cohomology with logarithmic poles, in Periodes p-adiques (Bures-sur-Yvette, 1988), Asterisque 223 (1994), 221–268.

O. Hyodo, On the de Rham–Witt complex attached to a semi-stable family, Compositio Math. 78 (1991), 241–260.
