Abstract: Let G be a Lie group over a local field of positive characteristic which admits a contractive automorphism f (i.e., the forward iterates f^n(x) of each group element x converge to the neutral element 1). We show that then G is a torsion group of finite exponent and nilpotent. We also obtain results concerning the interplay between contractive automorphisms of Lie groups over local fields, contractive automorphisms of their Lie algebras, and positive gradations thereon. Some of the results even extend to Lie groups over arbitrary complete ultrametric fields.

Review text

A contraction group is a pair \((G,\alpha )\) of a topological group \(G\) and a bicontinuous automorphism \(\alpha :\;G\to G\), such that \(\alpha^n (x)\to 1\), as \(n\to \infty\), for each \(x\in G\). The author studies contraction Lie groups over a complete ultrametric field \(K\). It is shown that for \(\text{char}K=0\) the contraction property is equivalent to a corresponding property of the Lie algebra. For \(\text{char}K>0\), the correspondence between Lie algebras and Lie groups is more complicated. For example, two non-isomorphic contraction groups can give rise to the same Lie algebra and the same contractive Lie algebra automorphism. For local fields of positive characteristic, it is also shown that a contraction \(C^1\)-Lie group is a torsion group of finite exponent and solvable. A \(C^k\)-Lie group with \(k\geq 2\) is nilpotent. The latter result is valid if \(K\) is an arbitrary complete ultrametric field.
