The infinitesimal subgroup of interpretable groups in some dp-minimal valued fields (2502.08163v1)

Abstract: We continue our local analysis of groups interpretable in various dp-minimal valued fields, as introduced in [8]. We associate with every infinite group $G$ interpretable in those fields an infinite type-definable infinitesimal subgroup $\nu(G)$, generated by the four infinitesimal subgroups $\nu_D(G)$ associated with the distinguished sorts $K$, $\textbf{k}$, $\Gamma$ and $K/\mathcal{O}$. To show that $\nu(G)$ is type-definable, we show that the resulting subgroups $\nu_D(G)$ commute with each other as $D$ ranges over the four distinguished sorts. We then study the basic properties of $\nu(G)$. Among others, we show that $\nu(G_1\times G_2)=\nu(G_1)\times \nu(G_2)$ and that if $G_1\le G$ is a definable subgroup then $\nu(G_1)$ is relatively definable in $\nu(G)$. We also discuss possible connections between $\mathrm{dp\text{-}rk}(\nu(G))$ and elimination of imaginaries.
