Abstract

Let $k$ be a field and $I$ be an ideal of the polynomial algebra $R_n$ in $n$ variables. If $A$ is a (commutative) $k$-algebra, then we denote by $\mathcal{D}(A)$ the algebra of differential operators on the algebra $A$.

McConnell and Robson showed that in characteristic zero, the algebra of differential operators on a commutative $k$-algebra of finite type is isomorphic to a quotient of a subalgebra of the algebra of differential operators on a polynomial algebra, i.e.,

$$
\mathcal{D}\left(\frac{R_n}{I}\right) \simeq \frac{\left\{u \in \mathcal{D}\left(R_n\right): u(I) \subseteq I\right\}}{I \mathcal{D}\left(R_n\right)} .
$$


In this paper, we generalize this result of McConnell and Robson in prime characteristic.
