The additive group of the p-adic integers #
The additive group of ℤ_[p], written multiplicatively as Multiplicative ℤ_[p], is a
pro-p group. Its levels are the open normal subgroups p ^ m ℤ_p
(TauCeti.padicIntLevel p m), the kernels of the truncations ℤ_[p] → ZMod (p ^ m); they have
index p ^ m and every open subgroup contains one of them, so every open normal quotient is a
quotient of a finite p-group.
The element 1 : ℤ_[p] topologically generates this group because the integers are dense in
the p-adic integers. Consequently its topological generator rank is one.
The group is moreover the pro-p group on one generator: for every pro-p group P and
a : P, the p-adic power l ↦ a ^ l is the unique continuous homomorphism
Multiplicative ℤ_[p] →ₜ* P sending 1 to a. This universal property is what identifies
Multiplicative ℤ_[p] with the free pro-p group on one generator.
The powers ℤ_[p] ^ X, for an arbitrary index type X, are treated at the end: they are pro-p,
topologically generated by the coordinate vectors, so that a continuous homomorphism out of
Multiplicative (X → ℤ_[p]) is determined by its values on them, and the p-adic power by l is
scalar multiplication by l, that is coordinatewise multiplication by l.

the kernel of reduction modulo p ^ m. It consists of the multiples of p ^ m

Equations
Instances For
The underlying subgroup of the level p ^ m is the kernel of reduction modulo p ^ m.
The level p ^ m of ℤ_p consists of the multiples of p ^ m.
The level p ^ m of ℤ_p has index p ^ m.
The levels of ℤ_p are cofinal. Every open subgroup of Multiplicative ℤ_[p] contains the
level p ^ m ℤ_p for some m: an open subgroup contains a ball around 1, and the balls around
1 are the levels.
The additive group of the p-adic integers, written multiplicatively, is pro-p: every open
normal subgroup contains a level p ^ m ℤ_p, whose quotient is ℤ ⧸ p ^ m.
The supernatural order of ℤ_p is p ^ ∞. The additive group of the p-adic integers is
pro-p, so no other prime divides its order, and its quotient by the level p ^ m ℤ_p has order
p ^ m for every m.
The element 1 : ℤ_[p] topologically generates the additive group of the p-adic
integers.
The additive group of the p-adic integers is topologically finitely generated.

The cardinal-valued topological generator rank of the additive group of ℤ_[p] is one.

that value at 1, by TauCeti.IsProP.padicPowHom_unique.

The additive group ℤ_[p] ^ X is pro-p.
A continuous homomorphism from a pro-p group to ℤ_[p] ^ X carries the p-adic power by
l to the scalar multiple by l.
The coordinate vectors topologically generate the additive group ℤ_[p] ^ X: the closed
subgroup they generate contains every vector supported at one coordinate, because the integers
are dense in ℤ_[p], hence every finitely supported vector, and these are dense in the product
topology.
Two continuous homomorphisms out of the additive group ℤ_[p] ^ X into a Hausdorff monoid
that agree on the coordinate vectors are equal.
