Sep 6, 2021 at 0:15 | comment | added | Will Sawin | $SO(3)$ embeds into $SO_3(\mathbb C)$. Using choice, fix an isomorphism between $\mathbb C$ and $\overline{\mathbb Q_p}$, giving an isomorphism between $SO_3(\mathbb C)$ and $SO_3(\overline{\mathbb Q_p})$. Then doesn't $SO_3(\overline{\mathbb Q_p})$ act faithfully on $SO_3(\overline{\mathbb Q_p})/SO_3(\overline{\mathbb Z_p})$, which is countable because it is the union over all finite extensions $K_p$ of $\mathbb Q_p$ with ring of integers $\mathcal O_{K_p}$ of the countable $SO_3(K_p)/ SO_3(\mathcal O_{K_p})$? | |
