Primitive elements for p-divisible groups
نویسنده
چکیده
We introduce the notion of primitive elements in arbitrary truncated p-divisible groups. By design, the scheme of primitive elements is finite and locally free over the base. Primitive elements generalize the “points of exact order N ,” developed by Drinfeld and Katz-Mazur for elliptic curves.

non-divisibility for abelian groups
Throughout all groups are abelian. We say a group G is n-divisible if nG = G. If G has no non-zero n-divisible subgroups for all n>1 then we say that G is absolutely non-divisible. In the study of class C consisting all absolutely non-divisible groups such as G, we come across the sub groups T_p(G) = the sum of all p-divisible subgroups and rad_p(G) = the intersection of all p^nG. The proper...
متن کاملOn the number of p-regular elements in finite simple groups
A p-regular element in a finite group is an element of order not divisible by the prime number p. We show that for every prime p and every finite simple group S, a fair proportion of elements of S is p-regular. In particular, we show that the proportion of p-regular elements in a finite classical simple group (not necessarily of characteristic p) is greater than 1/(2n), where n− 1 is the dimens...
متن کاملConnected Abelian Groups in Compact Loops
We shall prove the following theorem concerning compact connected abelian groups: For any element x in a compact connected abelian group there is an element y such that the closure of the cyclic group generated by y is connected and contains x. This is a generalisation of the well known fact that any compact connected group whose topology admits a basis of at most continuum cardinality is monot...
متن کاملEuler’s groups of powers of prime complex integers
The article describes Euler’s group Γ (z), formed by the invertible elements of the ring of the residues of the integer complex numbers modulo numbers divisible by z. The answers are proved for the primary cases z = (1+ i)m and z = (p+ iq)m, p2 +q2 = 4k+3 being prime.
متن کاملNewton Strata in the Loop Group of a Reductive Group
We generalize purity of the Newton stratification to purity for a single break point of the Newton point in the context of local G-shtukas respectively of elements of the loop group of a reductive group. As an application we prove that elements of the loop group bounded by a given dominant coweight satisfy a generalization of Grothendieck’s conjecture on deformations of p-divisible groups with ...
