Homomorphic Images of Locally Compact Groups Acting on Trees and Buildings
Abstract
We study analogues of Cartan decompositions of Lie groups for totally disconnected locally compact groups. It is shown using these decompositions that a large class of totally disconnected locally compact groups acting on trees and buildings have the property that every continuous homomorphic image of the group is closed.
