Locally finite profinite rings

چکیده
We investigate the structure of locally finite profinite rings. We classify (Jacobson-) semisimple locally finite profinite rings as products of complete matrix rings of bounded cardinality over finite fields, and we prove that the Jacobson radical of any locally finite profinite ring is nil of finite nilexponent. Our results apply to the context of small compact G-rings, where we also obtain a description of possible actions of G on the underlying ring.

Profinite groups, profinite completions and a conjecture of Moore
Let R be any ring (with 1), Γ a group and RΓ the corresponding group ring. Let H be a subgroup of Γ of finite index. Let M be an RΓ−module, whose restriction to RH is projective. Moore’s conjecture [5]: Assume for every nontrivial element x in Γ, at least one of the following two conditions holds: M1) 〈x〉 ∩ H 6= {e} (in particular this holds if Γ is torsion free) M2) ord(x) is finite and invert...
متن کاملOn finitely generated profinite groups, I: strong completeness and uniform bounds
We prove that in every finitely generated profinite group, every subgroup of finite index is open; this implies that the topology on such groups is determined by the algebraic structure. This is deduced from the main result about finite groups: let w be a ‘locally finite’ group word and d ∈ N. Then there exists f = f(w, d) such that in every d-generator finite group G, every element of the verb...
متن کاملOn Groups Whose Subgroups Are Closed in the Profinite Topology
A group is called extended residually finite (ERF) if every subgroup is closed in the profinite topology. The ERF-property is studied for nilpotent groups, soluble groups, locally finite groups and FC-groups. A complete characterization is given of FC-groups which are ERF. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary 20E26.

Let En be the Lubin-Tate spectrum and let Gn be the nth extended Morava stabilizer group. Then there is a discrete Gnspectrum Fn, with LK(n)(Fn) ' En, that has the property that (Fn) ' E n , for every open subgroup U of Gn. In particular, (Fn)n ' LK(n)(S). More generally, for any closed subgroup H of Gn, there is a discrete H-spectrum Zn,H , such that (Zn,H) ' E n . These conclusions are obtain...

The theory of profinite groups is flourishing! This is the first immediate observation from looking at the four books on the subject which have come out in the last two years. The subject, which only two decades ago was somewhat remote, has made its way to mainstream mathematics in several different ways. What is a profinite group? A profinite group G is a topological group which is Hausdorff, ...
