The Tate twist $M(1)$ multiplies a <Galois representation>'s action by the <cyclotomic character>. Here $\mathbb Z_p(1)$ is the inverse limit of $p$-power <roots of unity> under power maps. For a one-variable <Iwasawa module>, twisting changes characteristic power series by the corresponding change in the generator's action.
