Profinite Groups
γ = c0 + c1p+ c2p + · · · = (. . . c3c2c1c0)p, with ci ∈ Z, 0 ≤ ci ≤ p− 1, called the digits of γ. This ring has a topology given by a restriction of the product topology—we will see this below. The ring Zp can be viewed as Z/pZ for an ‘infinitely high’ power n. This is a useful idea, for example, in the study of Diophantine equations: if such an equation has a solution in the integers, then it...
متن کاملCohomology of Profinite Groups
A directed set I is a partially ordered set such that for all i, j ∈ I there exists a k ∈ I such that k ≥ i and k ≥ j. An inverse system of groups is a collection of groups {Gi} indexed by a directed set I together with group homomorphisms πij : Gi −→ Gj whenever i ≥ j such that πii = idGi and πjk ◦ πij = πik. Let H be a group. We call a family of homomorphisms {ψi : H −→ Gi : i ∈ I} compatible...
متن کاملOn Commutators in Groups
Commutators originated over 100 years ago as a by-product of computing group characters of nonabelian groups. They are now an established and immensely useful tool in all of group theory. Commutators became objects of interest in their own right soon after their introduction. In particular, the phenomenon that the set of commutators does not necessarily form a subgroup has been well documented ...
متن کاملCohomology of Profinite Groups
The aim of this thesis is to study profinite groups of type FPn. These are groups G which admit a projective resolution P of Ẑ as a ẐJGK-module such that P0, . . . , Pn are finitely generated, so this property can be studied using the tools of profinite group cohomology. In studying profinite groups it is often useful to consider their cohomology groups with profinite coefficients, but pre-exis...
متن کاملON COMMUTATORS IN p-GROUPS
For a given prime p, what is the smallest integer n such that there exists a group of order p in which the set of commutators does not form a subgroup? In this paper we show that n = 6 for any odd prime and n = 7 for p = 2.
