B-side Frobenius action correspondence for matrix factorizations

Let (A,f)(A,f) be a formal smooth commutative algebra of dimension d<pd<p over k\mathbf{k}, with superpotential fAf\in A. Assume the HKR-type quasi-isomorphisms

(TA,ιdf)CC(MF(A,f)),(\bigwedge^*TA,\iota_{df})\simeq CC^*(\operatorname{MF}(A,f)),

and

(ΩA[[t]],tddf)CCS1(MF(A,f)).(\Omega^*_{A}[[t]],td-df\wedge)\simeq CC^{S^1}_*(\operatorname{MF}(A,f)).

Under the identification CCS1CCS1θCCZ/pCC^{S^1}_*\oplus CC^{S^1}_*\theta\simeq CC^{\mathbb{Z}/p}_*, these quasi-isomorphisms intertwine the Z/p\mathbb{Z}/p-equivariant cap product and a Frobenius pp-linear graded multiplicative action on the de Rham side, where twisted functions fA/ιdf(TA)f\in A/\iota_{df}(TA) act by multiplication by fpf^p, and twisted vector fields Dker(ιdf:TAA)/ιdf(2TA)D\in\ker(\iota_{df}:TA\to A)/\iota_{df}(\bigwedge^2TA) act by

iD[p]:=(ιDpLDp1ιD)tp12.i^{[p]}_{D}:=(\iota_{D^p}-\mathcal{L}_{D}^{p-1}\iota_D)t^{\frac{p-1}{2}}.

This is a proposed B-side description of quantum Steenrod operations in arithmetic mirror symmetry. The correspondence is stated in the paper as expected, and its validity in the indicated generality remains open; related HKR results are known when ff has isolated singularities.
