Compact subgroups of a linear group over non-Archimedean local field
$\DeclareMathOperator\GL{GL}$Let $\mathbb{F}$ be a non-Archimedean local field. Let $\mathcal{O}$ be its ring of integers.
Is it true that any compact subgroup of $\GL_n(\mathbb{F})$ is conjugated to ...

Does an affine building associated to a group satisfy the axioms of building?
Now I am reading Groupes réductifs sur un corps local : I. Données radicielles valuées written by Bruhat and Tits in 1972. Let $\Phi$ be a root system, $G$ a group with root data $(T,(U_{a},M_{a})_{a\...

Why inherit the Tits systems structure by a $B$-adapted homomorphism?
Let $(G,B,N,S)$ be a Tits system and $\phi\colon G\longrightarrow \hat{G}$ a $B$-adapted in the sense of the paper Groupes réductifs sur un corps local: I of Bruhat–Tits. They said that $\phi$ is a $B$...

Cohomology of finite $p$-groups over integers in local fields
Let $p$ be a prime, $G$ be a finite group of order $p^a$. Let $M$ be a $\mathbb{Z}[G]$-module. Then $H^n(G, M)$ is annihilated by $p^a$ for all $n \geq 1$ (see e.g. Brown, Corollary III.10.2).
In ...

Reference for nonquasi-split groups of type $E_6$ and $E_7$ over local fields
The semisimple groups over a local field have been classified by Tits, cf. [1] "Classification of algebraic semisimple groups" in Boulder and [2] "Reductive groups over local fields" in Corvallis.

Understanding the structure of unitary groups
I would like to understand precisely the structure of unitary groups.
Let $F$ be a global number field, $E$ a quadratic extension of $F$, and $U$ a unitary group on $E$ (i.e. the group of ...

Which groups are Galois over some p-adic field?
Suppose I have some finite $p$-group $G$, or a little extension of it.
How do I know if there exists a prime $l$ and a finite extension $K$ of $\mathbb{Q}_l$ such that $G$ is the Galois group of ...

Fields of definition of parabolically induced representations of $\mathrm{SL}(2,q)$
Let $\alpha_0$ be the unique non-trivial character satisfying $\alpha_0^2=1$ of the split torus $\mathrm{T} \subset \mathrm{SL}(2,q)$ and denote by $\mathrm{R}(\alpha_0)$ the character of $\mathrm{SL}(...

Parshin's buildings for higher local fields
What is the status of the theory of buildings for higher local fields?
I know that there are some papers of Parshin, in which he describes some examples, like $PGL_2$ and $PGL_3$ over two-...

Is $SL_1(D)$ toplogically finitely generated, for $D$ a division algebra over a local field?
I've been struggling with this one all day, and I was wondering if someone can give me a hand with the proof. I'm not even sure if the group in question is finitely generated, so I would appreciate if ...
