Barsotti-Tate groups and p-adic representations of the fundamental group scheme

On a scheme S over a base scheme B we study the category of locally constant BT groups, i.e. groups over S that are twists, in the flat topology, of BT groups defined over B. These groups generalize p-adic local systems and can be interpreted as integral p-adic representations of the fundamental group scheme of S/B (classifying finite flat torsors on the base scheme) when such a group exists. We generalize to these coefficients the Katz correspondence for p-adic local systems and show that they are closely related to the maximal nilpotent quotient of the fundamental group scheme.
