Centralizers of semisimple subgroups in locally finite simple groups
In this short note, it is shown that if are -connected transversals for a finite subgroup of an infinite group such that the index of in is at least 3 and whenever and then is a normal abelian subgroup of .
Let be a -adic field, and let endowed with the Haar measure determined by giving a maximal compact subgroup measure . Let denote the number of conjugacy classes of arithmetic lattices in with co-volume bounded by . We show that under the assumption that does not contain the element , where denotes the -th root of unity over , we have where denotes the order of the residue field of .
