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 level p ^ m of ℤ_p. The open normal subgroup p ^ m ℤ_p of Multiplicative ℤ_[p], the kernel of reduction modulo p ^ m. It consists of the multiples of p ^ m (mem_padicIntLevel_iff), has index p ^ m (index_padicIntLevel), and the levels are cofinal among the open subgroups (exists_padicIntLevel_le).

    @[simp]

    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.

    @[simp]

    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 universal property of ℤ_p among pro-p groups #

    Two continuous homomorphisms out of the additive group of the p-adic integers into a Hausdorff monoid that agree at 1 are equal.

    The p-adic power as a homomorphism out of ℤ_p. For an element a of a pro-p group, hP.padicPowHom a is the continuous homomorphism Multiplicative ℤ_[p] →ₜ* P sending l to the p-adic power a ^ l, so 1 ↦ a. It is the unique continuous homomorphism with that value at 1, by TauCeti.IsProP.padicPowHom_unique.

      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.

      ℤ_p^X is topologically finitely generated for finite X, by the coordinate vectors.

      Two continuous homomorphisms out of the additive group ℤ_[p] ^ X into a Hausdorff monoid that agree on the coordinate vectors are equal.
