We show that for a partial action $\eta$ with closed domain of a compact group $G$ on a profinite space $X$ the space of orbits $X/\!\sim_G$ is profinite, this leads to the fact that when $G$ is profinite the enveloping space $X_G$ is also…

In this paper, it is shown that a topological space $X$ is compact iff every maximal ideal of the power set ring $\mathcal{P}(X)$ converges to exactly one point of $X$. Then as an application, simple and ring-theoretic proofs are provided…

The set of all closed subgroups of a profinite carries a natural profinite topology. This space of subgroups can be classified up to homeomorphism in many cases, and tight bounds placed on its complexity as expressed by its scattered…

A classical result, the Stone embedding, characterizes profinite sets as totally disconnected, compact Hausdorff spaces. Building on "Pyknotic objects, I. Basic notions", which introduced a derived Stone embedding of the pro-category of…

We study the Hausdorff dimension of R-analytic subgroups in an R-analytic profinite group, where R is a pro-p ring whose asso- ciated graded ring is an integral domain. In particular, we prove that the set of such Hausdorff dimensions is a…

The exodromy correspondence of Barwick, Glasman, and Haine computes constructible sheaves of spaces on a scheme $X$ as an $\infty$-category of continuous functors from the profinite category $\operatorname{Gal}(X)$. Viewing…

Solid abelian groups, as introduced by Dustin Clausen and Peter Scholze, form a subcategory of all condensed abelian groups satisfying some ''completeness'' conditions and having favourable categorical properties. Given a profinite ring…

We study the structure of profinite polyadic groups and we prove that a polyadic topological group $(G, f)$ is profinite, if and only if, it is compact, Hausdorff, totally disconnected. More generally, for a pseudo-variety (or a formation)…

We give a categorical explanation for many properties of profinite coproducts of profinite groups, which were previously proven on a case-by-case basis. All of these properties take the form "certain functors preserve profinite coproducts".…

We contribute some information towards finding a general algorithm for constructing, for a given profinite group, $G$, a compact connected space, $X$, such that the full homeomorphism group, $H(X)$, with the compact-open topology is…

We discuss the problem of defining a tensor product of profinitely many copies of a vector space $V$, and propose a definition $\bigotimes_X^{\mathrm{mcc}} V$ in the special situation that (1) $V$ is finite-dimensional over $\mathbf{F}_2$,…

We prove several reflection theorems on $D$-spaces, which are Hausdorff topological spaces $X$ in which for every open neighbourhood assignment $U$ there is a closed discrete subspace $D$ such that \[ \bigcup\{U(x): x\in D\}=X. \] The…

Let $G$ be a group and let $K$ be a commensurated subgroup of $G$. Then there is a totally disconnected, locally compact (t.d.l.c.) group $\hat{G}_K$ that contains the profinite completion of $K$ as an open compact subgroup and also…

A new approach to \'etale homotopy theory is presented which applies to a much broader class of objects than previously existing approaches, namely it applies not only to all schemes (without any local Noetherian hypothesis), but also to…

We prove a characterization of profinite algebras, i.e., topological algebras that are isomorphic to a projective limit of finite discrete algebras. In general profiniteness concerns both the topological and algebraic characteristics of a…
