Explicit representation of roots on p-adic solenoids and non-uniqueness of embeddability into rational one-parameter subgroups

摘要

This note generalizes known results concerning the existence of roots and embedding one-parameter subgroups on p-adic solenoids. An explicit representation of the roots leads to the construction of two distinct rational embedding one-parameter subgroups. The results contribute to enlighten the group structure of solenoids and to point out difficulties arising in the context of the embedding problem in probability theory. As a consequence, the uniqueness of embedding of infinitely divisible probability measures on p-adic solenoids is solved under a certain natural condition.
