Arboreal representations of linear groups
Abstract
Ab\'ert and Vir\'ag conjectured in 2005 that any embedding of a linear group over a pro-p domain into the group of p-adic automorphisms Wp should be zero-dimensional. We prove their conjecture in greater generality, namely for embeddings of linear groups over any integral domain into the automorphism group of a bounded rooted tree.
