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 ...

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,...

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 ...

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(\...

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 ...
