The graded pieces of a subgroup along the lower p-series #
Let G be a topological group with lower p-series λ_k = λ_k(G) and graded pieces
gr_k(G) = λ_k ⧸ λ_{k+1}, and let K ≤ G be a subgroup. The filtration K_k := K ∩ λ_k(G)
induced on K has graded pieces K_k ⧸ K_{k+1}, and since K_{k+1} = K_k ∩ λ_{k+1}(G) these
inject into gr_k(G). This file works with their images: the graded piece of K in degree k
(TauCeti.gradedPieceOf) is the 𝔽_p-subspace gr_k(K) ≤ gr_k(G) of the classes of the elements
of K ∩ λ_k(G). When K is normal, gr(K) = ⨁_k gr_k(K) is an ideal of the graded Lie algebra
gr(G): it is stable under the p-power operator π and under the bracket with any class of
gr(G) (TauCeti.gradedPow_mem_gradedPieceOf, TauCeti.gradedBracket_mem_gradedPieceOf_left,
TauCeti.gradedBracket_mem_gradedPieceOf_right). If K contains the commutator subgroup, then
gr(K) contains every bracket, so the bracket span C_{k+1}(G) of Graded/BracketSpan.lean
lies in gr_{k+1}(K) (TauCeti.gradedBracketSpan_le_gradedPieceOf).
This is the graded Lie algebra gr(X) of the kernel X of a character of a free pro-p group
that Labute's classification of Demushkin groups with q = 2 runs on, identified with its image in
gr(F).

The graded piece of a subgroup: for K ≤ G, the 𝔽_p-subspace gr_k(K) ≤ gr_k(G) of the
classes of the elements of K ∩ λ_k(G), the image of K_k ⧸ K_{k+1} for the induced filtration
K_k = K ∩ λ_k(G) of K. Its elements are characterized by TauCeti.mem_gradedPieceOf_iff.
