Existence of the double coset ring on paper of Ihara
In his paper "On discrete subgroups of the two by two projective linear group over $\mathfrak{p}$-adic fields", Yasutaka Ihara considers an abstract group $G$ together with a length function $l$ from $...

is a linear algebraic group over an extension of $\mathbb{Q}_p$ a locally pro finite group?
Let $F$ be a non archimedean local field and let $G$ be linear algebraic group over $F$. I do not have a lot of experience with linear algebraic group, but it seems very obvious that $G$ inherits the ...

Existence of maximal totally ramified subextension
Suppose $K/\mathbb Q_p$ is a finite extension, with ramification index $e$ and inertia index $f$. I want to ask whether there exists a subextension $L/\mathbb Q_p$ totally ramified of degree $e$?

Why $k((x,t))$ can not be a local field?
If $k$ is a finite field, then $k((x))$ is a local field, and we can define a discrete valuation on $k((x))$ with respect to which it is complete. It is sometimes called a 1-dimensional local field.
I ...

What is the quotient group $\mathfrak{q}^2/\mathfrak{p}^2 \mathbb{Z}_p$?
Let $p \geq 2$ be prime and $K=\mathbb{Q} (\zeta_p),~ \zeta^{p-1}=1$ with ring of integers $\mathcal{O}_K$. We denote $\mathfrak{p} \mid p$ the prime ideal of $K$ dividing $p$. Let $K_{\mathfrak{p}}$ ...

Local field such that the value group of $K^\text{perf}$ ( perfect closure of $K$) is $\bigcup_{n\geqq1}(1/p^n) \Bbb{Z}$
Let $K$ be a local field of positive characteristic.
I'm looking for a $K$ which satisfies the following condition.
Value group of $K^\text{perf}$ (perfect closure of $K$) is $\bigcup_{n\geqq1}(1/p^n)...

Splitting of simply connected algebraic group
Let $k$ be a number field and let $G$ be a connected semisimple, simply connected algebraic group defined over $k$. Let $k'$ be a finite Galois extension over which $G$ splits. By the Chebotarev ...

Index of a mysterious congruence subgroup
Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local number field, $\mathfrak{o}_F$ its ring of integers and $\mathfrak{p}_F$ its maximal ideal. Let $E$ be a quadratic unramified extension over $F$.
Let $G$ be the ...

Orbits of some action of SL2 on Pontryagin dual of the field of formal Laurent series
Let $K=\mathbb{F}_2((t))$ be the field of formal Laurent series over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_2$. Now consider $K^3$ as an additive group and its dual group $\hat{K^3}$, which consists of all ...

integrating a character of a non-archimedean local field
By way of motivation, this computation comes from a proof in Bump's book Automorphic Forms and Representations where he shows that the Weil index of the reduced norm of a four-dimensional central ...
