Volume of a double class of a parahoric subgroup
Let $F$ be a non-archimedean local field with residue field $F_q$. Let $G$ be the group of $F$-rational points of a connected reductive group defined and split over $F$. Fix a maximal split torus $T$ ...

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 ...

The stabiliser group of an isotropic quadratic form over $\mathbb{Q}_p$ is non-compact?
Let $\mathbb{Q}_p$ denote the $p$-adic integers. Let $V$ be a $\mathbb{Q}_p$-vector space and $Q : V \rightarrow \mathbb{Q}_p$ be a non-degenerate integral quadratic form. We say that the pair $(Q,V)$ ...

Projective limit of copies of same group w.r.t. some fixed endomorphism
In our study of automorphism groups of transcendental field extensions, we have encountered the situation where we have a group $F$ together with an endomorphism $\alpha \colon F \to F$, resulting in ...

intuition for lattices in p-adic (or other non-Archimedean) vector spaces?
I could use some help to jumpstart my intuition for lattices in vector spaces over non-Archimedean fields, like $\mathbb{Q}_p$ and $\mathbb{F}_q((t))$.
I have some intuition for $\mathbb{Z}$-lattices ...

Finite dimensional irreps of $p$-adic groups
What are some examples of finite dimensional irreducible complex representations of $SL_2(\mathbb{Q}_p)$?
One knows such a representations cannot be smooth, so probably the examples will be ...

Index of the congruence subgroups of $PGL_2(\mathbb{Z}_p)$
Let $\Gamma_n$ be the $n$-th congruence subgroup of $GL(2,\mathbb{Z}_p)$. So $\Gamma_n$ consists of matrices in $GL(2,\mathbb{Z}_p)$ which are congruent to the identity matrix modulo $p^n$. Let $Z(\...

Newton Method in $p$-adic case
The Newton Method over $\mathbb{R}$ has the property that the precision is doubled (under some continuous differentiable assumption) in each iteration. For the ring $\mathbb{Z}_p$ of $p$-adic integers,...

$p$-adic orthogonal groups in four variables
Let $p>2$ be prime. By the classification of quadratic forms, there are $8$ pairwise non-equivalent isotropic orthogonal groups in $4$ variables. Is there a concrete classification of orthogonal ...

Is $1+T$ a topological generator for $Z_{p}[[T]]$? [closed]
Consider the ring of formal power series $\mathbb{Z}_p[[T]]$ (where $\mathbb{Z}_p$ denotes the ring of $p$-adic integers) with the topology in which a neighborhood basis for $0$ is given by the ideals ...
