Special Note:
Abstract:

We construct an object defined over an algebraically closed field, whose fundamental group equals the absolute Galois group of Q_p. Formally, this object is a quotient of a perfectoid space, and is closely related to the "fundamental curve of p-adic Hodge theory" of Fargues and Fontaine.
