CompletedGroupAlgebra.Basic.AllFinite
The completed group algebra is presented as an inverse limit of finite group algebras, together with canonical augmentation, augmentation ideal, finite-stage maps, functoriality, and profinite module universal properties.
Additive
The carrier of the completed group algebra is the inverse limit \(\widehat{R[G]}=\varprojlim_U R[G/U]\) over the open-normal finite quotients of \(G\).
Index
The index set for the Section 5.3 completed group algebra tower, ordered so that larger indices give finer finite quotients.
Projections
The coefficient-ring map \(R \to \widehat{R[G]}\) is continuous.
Ring
The unit of the completed group algebra is defined coordinatewise through the finite-stage units.
Stage
The finite-stage group algebra \(R[G/U]\) from Ribes--Zalesskii, Section 5.3.
Topology
Each finite stage \(R[G/U]\) is a topological ring for its product topology.
