We show that every such group $G$ has unbounded exponent and if $G$ is dp-minimal then it is abelian-by-finite. Along the way, we associate with any infinite interpretable group an infinite type-definable subgroup which is definably isomorphic to a group in one of four distinguished sorts: the underlying valued field $K$, its residue field $\\textbf{k}$ (when infinite), its value group $\\Gamma$, or $K/\\mathcal{O}$, where $\\mathcal{O}$ is the valuation ring. Our work uses and extends techniques developed in [8] to circumvent elimination of imaginaries.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-06-12T06:39:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "valued field", "infinite interpretable group", "infinite type-definable subgroup", "study infinite groups interpretable", "residue field" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
