Abstract:Abstract. Let K be a global field and S be a finite set of places of K which includes all those of archimedean type. Let G be an algebraic group over K and G K be its K-rational points. The authors provide a detailed proof of a lemma of Raghunathan which states that (under fairly weak restrictions) the closure in the S-congruence topology of a subgroup of G K normalized by an S-arithmetic subgroup is also open. This leads to a significant simplification in the proof of one of the principal results in a recent … Show more
