In this paper we study singularities defined by the action of Frobenius in characteristic $p>0$. We prove results analogous to inversion of adjunction along a center of log canonicity. For example, we show that if $X$ is a Gorenstein normal variety then to every normal center of sharp $F$-purity $W \subseteq X$ such that $X$ is $F$-pure at the generic point of $W$, there exists a canonically defined $\bQ$-divisor $\Delta_{W}$ on $W$ satisfying $(K_X)|_W \sim_{\bQ} K_{W} + \Delta_{W}$. Furthermore, the singularities of $X$ near $W$ are"the same"as the singularities of $(W, \Delta_{W})$. As an application, we show that there are finitely many subschemes of a quasi-projective variety that are compatibly split by a given Frobenius splitting. We also reinterpret Fedder's criterion in this context, which has some surprising implications.
