Strong completeness in profinite groups

Andrew Pletch

Vol. 97 (1981), No. 1, 203–208
Abstract

A profinite group is strongly complete if every subgroup of finite index is open. In this paper it is shown that a profinite group with finitely generated p-Sylow subgroups is strongly complete and that if G is a finitely generated strongly complete profinite group and A is a finitely generated pseudocompact G-modulo then any extension of A by G is strongly complete.
