Verbal width in arithmetic Chevalley groups

Group Theory 2024-12-13 v2

Abstract

We prove that the width of any word in a simply connected Chevalley group of rank at least 2 over the ring that is a localisation of the ring of integers in a number field is bounded by a constant that depends only on the root system and on the degree of the number field.
