Abstract
Let be a connected, absolutely almost simple, algebraic group defined over a finitely generated, infinite field , and let be a Zariski dense subgroup of . We show, apart from some few exceptions, that the commensurability class of the field given by the compositum of the splitting fields of characteristic polynomials of generic elements of determines the group upto isogeny over the algebraic closure of .
