We use these subgroups to define the p-localisation of G, a locally virtually pro-p group which maps continuously and injectively to G with dense image, and describe the relationship between the scale and modular functions of G and those of its p-localisation. In the case of locally virtually prosoluble groups, we consider all primes simultaneously using local Sylow bases.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-11-30T18:03:03.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "22D05" ], "keywords": [ "locally compact group", "local sylow theory", "open compact subgroup", "local sylow bases" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 13, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1111.7256R" } } }
