Abstract
Fix some prime number and consider an open subgroup either of or of the normalizer of a Cartan subgroup of . The elements of act on for every and hence also on the direct limit, and we call 1-eigenspace the group of fixed points. We partition by considering the possible group structures for the 1-eigenspace and show how to evaluate with a finite procedure the Haar measure of all sets in the partition. The results apply to all elliptic curves defined over a number field, where we consider the image of the -adic representation and the Galois action on the torsion points of order a power of .
