Let k be a perfect field of characteristic p > 0, K$_0$ = Frac(W(k)), π a uniformizer in K$_0$ and π$_n$ [set membership] K $_0$ (n[set membership] N) such that π$_0$ = π and π$^p$$_n$ $_ + 1$ = π$_n$. We write K$_&infin;$ = [cup B: union or logical sum]$_n$ $_&isin;N$ K$_0$ (π$_n$), H$_&infin;$ = Gal (K$_0$/ K$_&infin;$ and G = Gal(K$_0$/ K$_0$). The main result of this paper is that the functor ’restriction of the Galois action‘ from the category of crystalline representations of G with Hodge–Tate weights in an interval of length [less-than-or-eq, slant] p − 2 to the category of p-adic representations of H$_&infin;$ is fully faithful and its essential image is stable by sub-object and quotient. The proof uses the comparison between two ways of building mod. p representations of H$_&infin;$: one thanks to the norm field of K$_&infin;$, the other thanks to some categories of ’filtered‘ modules with divided powers previously introduced by the author.
