Residues on Affine Grassmannians

Abstract

Given a linear group G over a field k, we define a notion of index and residue of an element g of G(k((t)). This provides an alternative proof of Gabber's theorem stating that G has no subgroups isomorphic to the additive or the commutative group iff G(k[[t]])= G(k((t))). In the case of a reductive group, we offer an explicit connection with the theory of affine grassmannians.
