A topological Tits alternative
Emmanuel Breuillard, Tsachik Gelander
Abstract
Let k be a local field, and G a linear group over k. We prove that either G contains a relatively open solvable subgroup, or it contains a relatively dense free subgroup. This result has applications in dynamics, Riemannian foliations and profinite groups.
