Using wreath products, we construct a finitely generated pro-p group G with infinite normal Hausdorff spectrum with respect to the p-power series. More precisely, we show that this normal Hausdorff spectrum contains an infinite interval;…
Recently the first example of a family of pro-$p$ groups, for $p$ a prime, with full normal Hausdorff spectrum was constructed. In this paper we further investigate this family by computing their finitely generated Hausdorff spectrum with…
We construct a $2$-generated pro-$2$ group with full normal Hausdorff spectrum $[0,1]$, with respect to each of the four standard filtration series: the $2$-power series, the lower $2$-series, the Frattini series, and the dimension subgroup…
Klopsch and the author have constructed a finitely generated pro-p group G, for p an odd prime, with infinite normal Hausdorff spectrum with respect to the p-power series. They show that the normal Hausdorff spectrum of G contains an…
Let $G$ be a finitely generated pro-$p$ group, equipped with the $p$-power series. The associated metric and Hausdorff dimension function give rise to the Hausdorff spectrum, which consists of the Hausdorff dimensions of closed subgroups of…
We establish that finitely generated non-abelian direct products $G$ of free pro-$p$ groups have full Hausdorff spectrum with respect to the lower $p$-series $\mathcal{L}$. This complements similar results with respect to other standard…
Let $G$ be a finitely generated pro-$p$ group of positive rank gradient. Motivated by the study of Hausdorff dimension, we show that finitely generated closed subgroups $H$ of infinite index in $G$ never contain any infinite subgroups $K$…
Let $G$ be a $p$-adic analytic pro-$p$ group of dimension $d$. We produce an approximate series which descends regularly in strata and whose terms deviate from the lower $p$-series in a uniformly bounded way. This brings to light a new set…
We study the pro-$p$ group $G$ whose finite quotients give the prototypical Sylow $p$-subgroup of the general linear groups over a finite field of prime characteristic $p$. In this article, we extend the known results on the subgroup…
We answer two longstanding questions of Klopsch (1999) and Shalev (2000) by proving that the finitely generated Hausdorff spectrum of the closure of a finitely generated regular branch group with respect to the level-stabilizer filtration…
We compute the ${\mathbb F}_p$-dimension of an $n$-th graded piece $G_{(n)}/G_{(n+1)}$ of the Zassenhaus filtration for various finitely generated pro-$p$-groups $G$. These groups include finitely generated free pro-$p$-groups, Demushkin…
We compare the notions of essential dimension and stable cohomological dimension of a finite group G, prove that the latter is bounded by the length of any normal series with cyclic quotients for G, and show that, however, this bound is not…
Let p be a prime. Uniform pro-p groups play a central role in the theory of p-adic Lie groups. Indeed, a topological group admits the structure of a p-adic Lie group if and only if it contains an open pro-p subgroup which is uniform.…
Let $p$ be a prime number. We consider diagonal $p$-permutation functors over a (commutative, unital) ring $\mathsf{R}$ in which all prime numbers different from $p$ are invertible. We first determine the finite groups $G$ for which the…
Firstly, we completely determine the self-similar Hausdorff spectrum of the group of $q$-adic automorphisms where $q$ is a prime power, answering a question of Grigorchuk. Indeed, we take a further step and completely determine its…
Let \Gamma be a finitely presentable pro-p group with a nontrivial finitely generated closed normal subgroup N of infinite index. Then def(\Gamma)\leq 1, and if def(\Gamma)=1 then \Gamma is a pro-p duality group of dimension 2, N is a free…
For each prime p and a monic polynomial f, invertible over p, we define a group G_{p,f} of p-adic automorphisms of the p-ary rooted tree. The groups are modeled after the first Grigorchuk group, which in this setting is the group…
Let G be a connected and reductive algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. An interesting class of representations of G consists of those G-modules having a good filtration -- i.e. a filtration whose…
We introduce the term "protonormal" to refer to a subgroup H of a group G such that for every x in G the subgroups x^{-1}Hx and H commute as sets. If moreover (G,H) is a Hecke pair we show that the Hecke algebra H(G,H) is generated by the…
If G is a GGS-group defined over a p-adic tree, where p is an odd prime, we calculate the order of the congruence quotients $G_n=G/\Stab_G(n)$ for every n. If G is defined by the vector $e=(e_1,...,e_{p-1})\in\F_p^{p-1}$, the determination…
