It is shown that such groups are virtually pronilpotent. More precisely, let G be a profinite CA-group. It is shown that G has a normal open subgroup N which is either abelian or pro-p. Further, a rather detailed information about the finite quotient G/N is obtained.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2018-07-06T14:13:30.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "profinite groups", "centralizers", "normal open subgroup", "finite quotient g/n", "article deals" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 20, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
