    This is a very impressive result that solves an old problem of Peter Kropholler in the torsion free case. A pro-\(p\) group \(G\) is of type \(FP_\infty\) if all cohomology groups \(H^n(G,\mathbb F_p)\) are finite. The main result states that a soluble torsion free pro-\(p\) group of type \(FP_\infty\) is polycyclic (as a pro-\(p\) group). In particular, \(G\) is of finite cohomological dimension. This is an imense contribution into soluble pro-\(p\) groups.
