Semisimple groups interpretable in various valued fields (2309.02727v2)

Abstract: We study infinite groups interpretable in power bounded $T$-convex, $V$-minimal or $p$-adically closed fields. We show that if $G$ is an interpretable definably semisimple group (i.e., has no definable infinite normal abelian subgroups) then, up to a finite index subgroup, it is definably isogenous to a group $G_1\times G_2$, where $G_1$ is a $K$-linear group and $G_2$ is a $\mathbf{k}$-linear group. The analysis is carried out by studying the interaction of $G$ with four distinguished sorts: the valued field $K$, the residue field $\mathbf{k}$, the value group $\Gamma$, and the closed $0$-balls $K/\mathcal{O}$.
