Using a local construction from a previous paper, we exhibit a numerical invariant, the differential Swan conductor, for an isocrystal on a variety over a perfect field of positive characteristic overconvergent along a boundary divisor; this leads to an analogous construction for certain p-adic and l-adic representations of the étale fundamental group of a variety. We then demonstrate some variational properties of this definition for overconvergent isocrystals, paying special attention to the case of surfaces.

In this paper, we define Swan conductors for unit-root overconvergent F-isocrystals using the theory of arithmetic 𝒟-modules due to Berthelot. Our Swan conductors are compared with the Swan conductors for ℓ-adic sheaves constructed by Kato and Saito using a geometric method. As an application, we prove the integrality of Swan conductors in the sense of Kato and Saito under the ‘resolution of singularities’ assumption.
