Compact $p$-adic analytic groups in which centralizers are abelian

Group Theory 2024-11-07 v1

Abstract

Using methods of associative algebras, Lie theory, group cohomology, and modular representation theory, we construct profinite pp-adic analytic groups such that the centralizer of each of their non-trivial elements is abelian. The paper answers questions of P.~Shumyatsky, P.~Zalesskii, and T.~Zapata in the Israel J. Math., v.~230, 2019.
