The conjugation action in completed group rings

Abstract

Let k=Fpk = \mathbb{F}_p or Zp\mathbb{Z}_p (or finite extensions of these). Let GG be a pp-valuable group, and form its completed group algebra kGkG. By analysing the conjugation action of GG on itself, we prove two structural results. Firstly, we show that all inner automorphisms of kGkG that preserve GG are induced from inner automorphisms of GG. Secondly, for a closed subgroup Γ\Gamma of GG, we calculate the Γ\Gamma-fixed ring of kG/IkG/I under the conjugation action of Γ\Gamma, for certain ideals II induced from the GG-centraliser of Γ\Gamma.
