“…Our arguments use parts of three classifications of BT 1 group schemes (in terms of words, the "canonical filtration", and permutations), largely due to Kraft, Ekedahl, and Oort. In a companion paper [PU20], we provide a complete translation between these classifications, and we apply them to give a detailed study of the p-torsion subgroups of Jacobians of Fermat curves, including well-known invariants like the p-rank and a-number, as well as two other invariants related to supersingular elliptic curves.…”
