Dec 30, 2022 at 17:25 comment added Ian Agol Topologicallly finitely generated profinite groups have finite-index subgroups open, so the topology can be recovered from the group structure, and hence have an intrinsic notion of (pro-)p-subgroup. linkinghub.elsevier.com/retrieve/pii/S1631073X03003492

Oct 23, 2012 at 5:53 comment added KConrad @Will: the question mentions profinite groups at the end already.
Oct 23, 2012 at 5:12 comment added Will Sawin Silly example: $\mathcal C$=profinite groups. Sylow subgroups = maximal closed pro-$p$ subgroups. One reason this is silly is that topological groups are not really a type of group.
